Enrolments

Students who live within the Takapuna Grammar School zone may enrol at the school as of right, provided they:

• have entitlement to a state education (see 'Online Enrolment Form' for documents required)
• live in the zone with a parent or court appointed legal guardian (see 'Online Enrolment Form' for acceptable forms of evidence)
• have not been excluded from another school
  
  

Documentation required:

• a land rates invoice or sale and purchase agreement or if renting the rental agreement (with a minimum one year tenancy) and Tenancy Services bond receipt
• a broadband or power utility bill 
• a birth certificate/passport and/or relevant visa

Once the school is satisfied that the enrolment criteria have been met, the student and parent/caregiver will be invited to attend an enrolment interview with senior management. 

It is not possible to begin the enrolment process until a student is living in zone with a parent or court appointed legal guardian.

Students living outside the zone can apply under the Out of Zone Selective Ballot Entry process. A ballot is held annually to determine which of these students can be given the right to enrol for the following year.
