Enrolment criteria
We can only accept student enrolments if Ascot Vale PS is your closest Victorian Government Primary School.
Regional Area Director of South Western Department of Education and Training (DET) Victoria, John Dainutus, has recently written to us stating that we should now limit the number of students enrolling from outside the designated neighbourhood area so that capacity is not exceeded.
We are obliged by the Department of Education and Training (DET) to accept all students for whom Ascot Vale PS is the closest Government school to their permanent residence (residential address, not a business address). This is measured, in a straight line, from your front door to the school's front entrance, on an online mapping tool.
We will ask for proof of current residence - either a current local council rates notice, utility bill or rental agreement and match this to your driver’s licence or passport.
We accept all siblings, regardless of current residential address (sibling must be currently enrolled).
If you meet the above mentioned criteria, we will:
Once all documents and information have been collected we will confirm your child’s enrolment at Ascot Vale Primary School, as soon as possible.
Please be patient as at peak times this could take some time. This is usually done by mail.
