Selective school applications
Kooringal High School is the only school in the Wagga Wagga region that offers partially selective programming for some of its students. These students participate in selective English, Mathematics and Science classes. The intention of partially selective high schools is to provide an environment for academically gifted students to thrive with other classmates at their standard.
Entry to the partially selective program requires early application followed by assessment for selection. For more information, go to the Kooringal High School website and review information about selective high schools in New South Wales.

School zoning
Most high schools have designated local enrolment areas, with students enrolling in the relevant school based on their home address. Schools may accept enrolments from outside their designated area if places are available.
Using your home address and this school finder, you can determine your designated school.
