Enrolment

Applications

We are delighted that you are considering Pulteney Grammar School. All prospective students are welcome to experience a day as a Pulteney student. They will be teamed up with a buddy who will introduce them to school life.

Position on the list of applicants for each year level is determined primarily by the date that the application is received. Therefore, we encourage you to submit an application as early as possible.

The enrolment phase is activated approximately two years prior to commencement at Pulteney Grammar School. Please be aware that in particular, ELC and Year 7 entry is highly competitive and waitlists generally apply.

If you have previously submitted an application or deferred a place on our waitlist, please email or call the Enrolments Office to amend your application.

Before you begin your application, you will need the following information:

  • A copy of your child’s birth certificate
  • A copy of any court orders or parenting plans if applicable

Each application requires a non-refundable fee of *$100. You will be emailed an invoice to pay this fee with a confirmation letter as receipt of your application.

*Please note, this application fee does not apply for families of current siblings or Old Scholars.

Step 2
Waitlist or offer

Pulteney offers placements in early March, two years before the enrolment year. Applications submitted after this time will receive an offer if a spot is available; otherwise, the child will be placed on the waitlist.

Step 3
Acceptance of offer

Upon receiving an offer for a place at the school, parents have 14 days to accept by completing and returning the Enrolment Agreement with a non-refundable Enrolment Confirmation Fee of $1000 to secure your child’s place.

Step 4
Orientation

Orientation packs are sent in October or November of the year before enrolment, providing details about Orientation Day, when new students will meet their teachers and classmates. Pulteney’s orientation pack includes essential forms and online information to support your child’s transition into school.
