The enrolment cap
The enrolment cap for Springwood High School is 980 students.
The enrolment cap is the number of students that can be enrolled at a school based on the school’s permanent accommodation. The enrolment cap tells us whether the school may or may not have the capacity to accept non-local enrolments. It is not a target or limit on the number of local enrolments a school can take. More information about this Department of Education policy can be found at the following link: Enrolment Policy: Information for Parents.
