FAQs

I live in the intake area for the new school and have a child already attending Year 9 to Year 11 at our current local high school. Can I enrol them at the new school?

The school will open for Year 7 and Year 8 students in 2027. Students in older year groups will continue to be accommodated at other local high schools.

This staggered enrolment process is normal for new high schools across the state. The process of growing a school allows adequate numbers of students and teaching staff to deliver a full curriculum based on the elective preferences of the students at the school. The gradual process allows the school to develop the culture, while establishing systems and processes in consultation with key stakeholders to reflect the school’s growing identity.

I have a child already attending our current local high school. Can I enrol their sibling/s at the same school even if I am in area for the new school?

Siblings of currently enrolled students will be assessed under the departments 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

New school: Wilton High School

As part of the NSW Government's plan to rebuild public education, the NSW Budget is delivering $4.1 billion for new and upgraded schools in Western Sydney. This targeted investment will ensure growing communities get access to a world class public education. Construction is underway to deliver a new high school for Wilton. The school will not only provide essential education infrastructure but also accommodate the anticipated increase in high school enrolments in the area and allow families to conveniently access educational facilities close to home. The new high school will be delivered across two stages with Stage 1 of the high school opening on Day 1 Term 1 2027, together with the new primary school and public preschool. The school will cater up to 187 students when it opens Stage 1 in 2027. Once Stage 2 is complete in 2028, the school will have capacity for up to 1,000 students. Enrolments are now open for students starting Day 1 Term 1 2027. Visit the Wilton High School website for information on how to enrol.

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.
