Distance Education is available to students who:
- are geographically isolated
- have a medical condition that prevents them attending mainstream
- are on extended travels for 10 weeks or more
- are travelling overseas
- have been recommended for distance education through their local School Education Area Office.
Our school caters for students who are residents of New South Wales.
How do I go about enrolling? The enrolment process for distance education is similar to enrolment into any NSW Public School. Along with enrolment forms, some categories may also require additional documentation and procedures. See the enrolment category links provided.
