Choosing the Right School for Your Child

When comparing schools, some key questions to ask:

  • Does the school offer before- and after-school care?

  • What are the school’s focus areas (e.g. STEM, arts, physical education)?

  • How large is the intake zone and will there be capacity when your child starts?

  • What support services are available for learning, wellbeing and parental involvement?

  • What transport or bus routes are available if needed?
