Selection criteria and ethos

Our selection criteria is established to reflect the ethos of our School. Consequently, we seek to enrol those children we judge to be best able to benefit from the academic program we offer, who demonstrate a willingness to participate in the full range of activities we offer, and whose families understand and are supportive of the Christian aims and objectives of the School. We will assess all applications to enrol against these criteria.

Entry Points

POINTS AT WHICH WE TAKE IN NEW STUDENTS
Our normal entry points are Kindergarten, Year 3, 5 and 7. We will consider applications for entry to other years, but only if places are available. Due to the high demand for places, we advise parents to apply for entry for their child well before the desired year of entry. We have limited places to offer. We will draw up a waiting list and will use this list to make later offers of enrolment if students to whom initial offers were made decide not to accept places offered, or if students already enrolled withdraw from the School.

Deferring an offer

YOU CANNOT DEFER AN OFFER
If we offer a student a place for a particular entry point, that offer only applies to that point of entry: it does not apply for a later entry point. For example, if we offer a child a place at the School starting in Year 7, but the parents then decide that they wish to defer the child’s entry until Year 10, they cannot defer the original offer to take it up at the later entry point. In these circumstances, we will place the child on the normal application waiting list and will reconsider their application at the next entry point.

Fees during the enrolment process

We will charge:
- An Application Fee of $270 (including GST) to be paid by the parents and forwarded with the Application to Register form. The Application Fee is non-refundable and does not guarantee a place at the school.
- An Enrolment Fee of $200 and Bond of $1500, to be paid by the parents when they accept an offer of a place. The Enrolment Fee and Bond are non-refundable if the parents should subsequently decide not to proceed with the enrolment offer. All Offers are forfeited if funds are not paid by the advised date.
- Additional requirement for entrance into Year 7: Parents are required to pay the Enrolment Fee, Bond and First Term deposit in advance before the expiry date of the offer, as a confirmation of acceptance. This deposit is then credited to the Term 1 school fees invoice when the child commences school. All Offers are forfeited if funds are not paid by the advised date. If the child does not commence school, the Bond, Enrolment Fee and Term 1 fees are non-refundable.
Privacy of information supplied

All enrolment information parents supply during the enrolment process will be kept confidential and accessed only by those staff involved in the enrolment process. If an application to enrol is not successful we will retain the information, with the permission of the parents, in case a place should become available later.

Enrolment Contract

Parents may accept a place for their child by signing the Enrolment Confirmation and paying the Enrolment Fee and Bond (and Term 1 fees for Year 7). This will establish the parents agreement to support the school rules and policies, to pay the School Fees, to accept the Enrolment Terms and the consequences of suspension or termination.

Parents’ declaration

In completing the Student Enrolment Form we will ask the Parents to declare that to the best of their knowledge they have:
- disclosed any special needs of their child
- provided a copy of any Parenting or Restraint Order that applies to the prospective student and parent(s) and
- completed fully the Student Information Form.
If a parent withholds information relevant to the registration and enrolment process, then we will reserve the right to refuse or terminate the enrolment process on these grounds.

Obligation to attend all school activities

When a place at the school is accepted the student will be expected to attend all the activities of the school, including classes, sports training and matches on weekdays and weekends, extra-curricular activities and special school functions (such as concerts and interschool sporting events.)

School Fees

School Fees for the first term of enrolment must be paid before school starts and by the date specified on the invoice (with the exception of Year 7 which are paid the year before entry) or the offer is forfeited. Term 1 School Fees are non-refundable even if the student does not proceed with the enrolment after having previously accepted the place. The current School Fees will be set out in the Fee Schedule which will be included in the enrolment pack. All fees and charges are reviewed annually.

When guardians or carers are enrolling children

In this Policy we have referred to ‘parents’ to indicate those people responsible for enrolling students. Most of our enrolments involve the natural parents of children, so we have chosen to use this terminology to simplify our documents. However, we readily accommodate applications to enrol in which guardians or carers have responsibility for a child’s application.

Our Enrolment Policy may change

The School reserves the right to alter its Enrolment Policy. Parents are encouraged to contact the School to find out if there have been any changes.

1. Discover more about NBCS

Take a school tour to discover the NBCS difference within our world-class campus. You will have the opportunity to meet the Heads of School, our Registrar and see our teachers and students in action.

Further details on entry availability can be found in our Current Enrolment Updates on our website.

Book your School Tour via our website.

While you wait to visit NBCS, we invite you to download the Prospectus and watch our Virtual Tours.
2. Lodge Application

Once you have decided you would like to be a part of the NBCS community, we invite you to complete and submit the online Application to Register. Please note that this includes payment of the non-refundable application fee of $270.

Before you begin, you will need copies of your child's birth certificate and passport, or evidence of Australian citizenship/visa documentation, and your child's school reference contact details.

Upon receiving your application form, we will send a confirmation that your application has been successfully lodged and we will add your child's name to the waitlist for the relevant year.

Registration does not guarantee the opportunity for an interview or that your child will be enrolled at NBCS. We will endeavour to keep you updated on the status of your application and will also keep you connected with what is happening in our school community.

You are welcome to apply without having toured the school first, although we do recommend booking a tour to give you an insight into the life of our school.
3. Request for Information/h5>
Prior to your desired year of entry, we begin contacting families on the waitlist to gather further information. If you wish to proceed with your application, you will be sent the Interview Questionnaire to complete. You will need to return the completed form by the date specified, including copies of your child's two most recent school reports, NAPLAN, and any other relevant specialist reports or individual learning plans.

For Year 7, the enrolment process begins two years prior to the desired year of entry and for all other year groups, it begins one year prior.
4. Interview

Once we receive the requested information, we will select students to participate in an interview, based on our enrolment criteria and the order in which applications were received.

Should your child be successful in reaching the interview stage, we will invite you to attend an interview with your child. Please note that an interview does not guarantee an offer of a place.
5. Offer of Place/h5>
Following the interview, if your child has been successful, you will receive a Letter of Offer along with the Student Enrolment Information Form to complete.

To accept the offer, you are required to sign the enrolment contract and pay the non-refundable Enrolment Fee and Bond. If enrolling in Year 7, you will also be required to pay a Year 7 Placement Fee. These fees must be paid before the expiry date of the offer to confirm acceptance. Fees are non-refundable should your child not start at NBCS after your confirmed acceptance.
