Morayfield State High School recognises as its prime obligation, the provision of access to an appropriate educational service for students whose principal place of residence is within the school's catchment area.
Because of enrolment capacity and growth, Morayfield State High School may be unable to meet this obligation in the future, unless action is taken to manage enrolments. The Principal must restrict the enrolment of Outside Catchment students to ensure Inside Catchment students can enrol at their local state school, without requiring additional facilities.
Applications from any other person, not meeting the Inside Catchment criteria, is an Outside Catchment application. Enrolment of students from outside the local catchment area is restricted to ensure that enrolments do not exceed the student enrolment capacity. This school can only enrol Outside Catchment students:
