Enrolment Zone Category Information

Enrolment at Lynfield College is governed by an Enrolment Scheme, which recognises a growing demand for places at Lynfield College from our in-zone contributing schools.

The purpose of the enrolment scheme is to help manage overcrowding, to ensure fair and transparent selection, and to ensure the best use of Ministry of Education schools. Our Enrolment Scheme includes procedures for enrolling out-of-zone students if we have the capacity to do so.

IN-ZONE ENROLMENT

All students living within the zone are entitled to enrol if they are eligible domestic students.
