³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ

³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s has key intake years at Kindergarten (50 Places), Year 1(8 Places), Year 2 (29 Places), Year 3 (9 Places), Year 4 (32 Places) and Year 6 (64 Places).

Entry to the School through other year groups is possible, however, places in all non-key-entry years are dependant on current students withdrawing from the cohort.

No, ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s has a Middle School model and an intake at Year 6 instead of Year 7. Year 6 students at ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s enjoy an intentionally designed transition program in Year 6 which prepares them for life in Senior School.

³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s does not have an entry point at Year 7 and it is highly unlikely that students applying for enrolment in Year 7 will gain a place. Places in Year 7 and above only become available when a student from a particular cohort withdraws, which is not a regular or normal occurrence.

The first step in the application process is to submit an Expression of Interest and join our Waiting Pool. All families in the Waiting Pool will be invited to apply for enrolment when the enrolments process for their desired year of entry commences.

All families in the Waiting Pool will be invited to apply for a place in their desired year of entry when the enrolment process for that intake year commences.

The ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s Enrolment Process is as follows:

1. Enquiry
2. Expression of Interest
3. Waiting Pool
4. Application for Enrolment
5. Interview
6. Onboarding and Orientation (Successful applicants)
7. Waiting Pool (Unsuccessful applicants and families who decline an offer).

Yes, all families in the Waiting Pool will be invited to apply and submit a new application for their desired year of entry.

New applications are required for each desired intake year to ensure that ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s is working with the most up to date information and reports as well as an active list of applicants.

All applicants who are not successful will have the choice of having their details moved back to the Waiting Pool for the next available entry point. Alternatively, families can request to withdraw their details from the Waiting Pool.

Families that decline the offer for a place cannot defer their entry to another entry year. Declining an offer will result in your details being transferred back to our Waiting Pool and you will be required to submit a new application for your desired year of entry.

Following the closure of applications, the ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s team will assess all applications, and prospective students will be invited for an interview. The team will consider the following criteria when assessing applications.

• Siblings of currently enrolled students or those who have been accepted and are awaiting commencement.
• Children of active Life Members of the Old Scholars’ Association
• Children of Anglican Clergy
• Children of parents who are active members of the Anglican Church
• Principal’s Discretion
• Date of Expression of Interest

The formal interview is a sit down meeting between the family (applicant and parents/guardians/carers) and Head/Deputy Head of Sub-School or Head of Year.

This is an opportunity for each party to get to know each other and decide whether the School is a good fit for the student.

Active Members of the Old Scholars’ Association (OSA) are Old Scholars who are active within the School community and/or the OSA Committee. This would include attending at least two committee meetings or OSA organised activities within the last 12 months.

For more information or to get involved, please contact the Old Scholars' Association on osa@stmarks.wa.edu.au

No, only old Scholars who participate within the Old Scholars' Association are active members.

No, only families in the Waiting Pool will be invited to attend a School Tour.

Yes, all families are required to have a tour of the School at least once before submitting an application. Families who already have siblings enrolled at the School do not need to attend another School Tour.

No, places at ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s are highly sought after and not all families who apply will gain a place at the School.

³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s will communicate with families in the Waiting Pool at least once per term. Families can expect to receive updates from the School in the form of newsletters, invitations to public events and an annual request to update your details and intention to remain in the Waiting Pool.

³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s has updated its enrolment process to create a streamlined internal process and improve the experience for prospective parents.
