Placement Process
Coburg High School experiences strong demand from students and has limited physical capacity to accept all students who apply for enrolment. Families who reside within the Coburg High School zone are guaranteed a place at the school and can check findmyschool.vic.gov.au to determine if Coburg High is their designated neighbourhood school.
For the Year 7, 2024 and Year 7-12, 2025 cohorts, Coburg High School is subject to an Enrolment Management Implementation Plan determined by the Department of Education. For these cohorts, approved entry criteria are:
• Students who live within the designated neighbourhood school boundary (guaranteed entry)
• Students with a sibling at the same permanent address who are attending the school at the same time (priority 1 of the priority order of placement)
• Students seeking enrolment on legitimate compassionate grounds.
In exceptional circumstances, a student may be enrolled in a school based on compassionate grounds. This is an overarching consideration and does not form part of the priority order of placement.
For more information, please refer to the Department of Education Placement Policy or contact the school directly on 03 9353 1700.
