This school’s intake area is changing.
As communities grow and change, the department is working to deliver new infrastructure in this area and needs to adjust local enrolment intake areas.
The new intake area for Jerrabomberra High School will apply for Years 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 enrolments commencing in the 2026 school year.
Year 12 still need to apply to Karabar High School during this time.
From 2027 all grades will be accepted at Jerrabomberra High School.
The new intake area is viewable via School Finder .
FAQs
I have a child already attending this school. Can they stay there if I am now in a different school’s intake area?
Yes, they can. There is no change for students already attending this school.
I have a child already attending this school. Can I enrol their sibling/s at the same school?
Siblings of currently enrolled students will be assessed under the department’s enrolment policy .
Families with a child currently enrolled at their assigned local school will retain the ability to enrol siblings at the same school, even if there are changes to the intake area boundaries that make their home address out-of-area.
How are new intake areas developed?
Many factors are considered to inform the development of new intake areas, for example:
- enrolment trends
- opportunities to align with primary school local intake areas
- public transport access
- the size and utilisation rate of schools
- the number of students living in each proposed intake area
- and the physical capacity of schools to enrol students

Upgrade: Jerrabomberra High School upgrade – Stage 2
As part of the NSW Government's plan to rebuild public education, the NSW Budget is delivering $2.3 billion for new and upgraded schools in regional NSW. This targeted investment will ensure growing communities get access to a world class public education. Stage one construction of the new permanent high school is complete, delivering modern facilities to accommodate approximately 500 students. Stage 2 expands the school capacity to 1,000 students with another building for 18 classrooms, a vocational education and training (VET) kitchen and a semi-commercial kitchen.

Maintenance
To ensure the safety, reliability and longevity of our schools, every school across NSW receives maintenance. The Department undertakes preventative and routine maintenance every year, and repairs as needed. The Department also reviews the planned maintenance program for each school every year and reviews those items that are predicted to require work to help prolong the life of the school buildings and facilities.

Demountables
Demountables have been part of the NSW education system for many decades and will continue to be used across the state. Demountable classrooms are modern, air-conditioned rooms that provide students and teaching staff with excellent quality facilities. The learning spaces have the same range of technology that is available in permanent spaces. We review school accommodation needs each year, looking at changing enrolment patterns and other factors to prepare for the upcoming school year. This helps to identify schools that need new demountables and schools where they can removed. Most demountable movement takes place between October and February and we report our annual demountable statistics each April. Additional demountable installations can occur outside this window to support capital works and maintenance projects in schools or emergency responses to natural disasters.
