Enrolment Ballot Application
Enrolment at Cotswold Mātāhae is governed by an enrolment scheme.
The development of new housing in our area combined with the increasing number of parents wishing their children to enter our school has meant the Board of Trustees has had to impose an enrolment scheme to avoid overcrowding and to manage the school roll having regard to the goals set out in our Charter.
The enrolment scheme outlines a geographical area from which students are automatically accepted for enrolment at our school. The enrolment scheme also outlines priorities for the acceptance of students living outside our zone.
If you live outside the zone your child will only be able to enrol at Cotswold Mātāhae if there are spaces available. Each year the number of out of zone enrolments are advertised and if enrolment requests for out of zone students exceeds the number of places available a ballot is held.
A ballot will be held on 22 August 2025 for children wishing to enrol during Term 4 of 2025 and Terms 1 - 3, 2026.
Applications must be received by 4pm on 20th August 2025.
