Student Enrolments

At Hoppers Crossing Secondary College we aim to enrol students on a “best fit” basis. Our philosophy is centred on determining what our College can offer your child in terms of the programs available at the College.

If you are interested in enrolling at our school, please select the ‘Book a Tour’ button on our home page or contact the College Reception on 9974 7777 or email [email protected] .

An enrolment form will be provided when placement is offered.

Our school follows the Department of Education’s Enrolment Policy for the enrolment, placement, and transfer of students.

Students who live within the school zone are guaranteed a place at our school. To find out whether you live in zone, visit findmyschool.vic.gov.au

All other applications will be considered subject to available space, and prioritised according to:

  1. students with a sibling at the same permanent address who are attending the school at the same time
  2. all other students in order of closeness of their home to the school.

Required documents

You will also be required to provide information about:

  • your contact details

Year 7 enrolment

Enrolling your child in Year 7 is an important part of their education journey. We want to help you make the transition process as easy as possible. Each year, the department releases Year 6 to Year 7 placement information for schools and for parents/carers, with information packs available from the beginning of Term 2 for students commencing Year 7 the following year. These information packs, and other important information, can be found on Moving from primary to secondary school page of the Victorian Government website.

Year 8 – 12 Enrolments

Prior to enrolling students we take into consideration

  • The current residential address of the legal guardian.
  • Your child’s suitability to the range of academic programs on offer
  • Any siblings that already attend the College.

To assist Hoppers Crossing Secondary College in assessing your child’s eligibility for enrolment, please include in your enrolment application original or certified copies of:

  1. Rental agreements or unconditional contracts of sale plus
  2. A copy of two of the following:
  • electoral enrolment confirmation
  • council rates notices
  • other official documentation that demonstrates permanent residency at that address such as a driver’s license or health care card

Documents should show the same address and parent’s/carer’s name as recorded on the school enrolment application form.

Optional: On request, you may also be required to complete a statutory declaration confirming the student is living in the address provided in the enrolment application and that the arrangement is genuine and intended to be permanent.

The College will also require:

  1. A copy of your child’s full birth certificate that clearly shows the names of both parents.

Note: Enrolment applications may not be successful if the requested documentation is not provided.

Should your child meet the criteria for enrolment at the College, we will make a time for you and your child to attend an enrolment interview with the relevant member of the Principal class team.
