School Zoning

In reply to Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (25 July 2019). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Minister for Education): I am advised of the following:

A total of 334 year eight students were allocated to Brighton Secondary School in 2019 as part of the Department for Education's year 7 to 8 transition process.

Of the 334 students, a total of 61 were not in zone and not in a specialist program. These students were allocated based on the sibling right rule (58 students) or the Enter for Success program (three students), which aims to improve attendance and retention rates of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students by allowing them to attend the SA government high school of their choice.

These 61 students reside in the following suburbs:
