  3. Enter the parent or guardian's basic details. Every applicant needs at least one parent, and this links the family together so you can manage the application.

  4. Choose Schedule an Event, Proceed to Enquiry or Proceed to Application, then register for the event, submit the enquiry or complete the application form.

Which options you see depends on the school:

  • Schedule an Event shows only if the school lets parents and agents register for tours or open days.
  • Proceed to Enquiry shows only if the school has the Registration of Interest form turned on.
  • Proceed to Application shows only if the school displays the application form on its landing page.

Some schools ask for an enquiry before an application.

Add a sibling
