Enrolment Information

Thank you for considering St Paul’s Catholic College Manly as an option for your son’s high school education.

St Paul’s Catholic College Manly is a comprehensive Year 7 to 12 systemic College within the Diocese of Broken Bay. We cater primarily for Catholic students in accordance with the Diocesan Enrolment Policy. Parents who are supportive of the Catholic Church and intend to adhere to the religious practices, educational ideals and financial requirements of the College are eligible to apply for enrolment.

While our schools rely heavily upon the support of our families, Bishop Anthony has asked that at this time we do all we can to support those suffering immediate financial hardship. It is with this in mind, that Bishop Anthony has approved new initiatives that have been implemented immediately, and are targeted specifically to families in greatest need as a result of financial stress.

Early submission of an enrolment application is encouraged; offers of enrolment will commence for Catholic families approximately two years prior to proposed entry to the College.

Please note we do not accept Overseas Students.

An enrolment application does not guarantee a place, it notifies the College of the family’s interest. At the discretion of the Principal, applicants and their parents may be required to attend an enrolment interview.

In the year prior to commencement at the College, we will schedule individual meetings between a member of the Senior Leadership Team and all enrolled applicants and their parents.

To further facilitate your son’s transition to high school, all students will attend a Year 7 orientation day. An information package is distributed to all parents/carers of enrolled boys at our Parent Information Evening.
