Enrolments
The Department of Education (DE), North Western Victoria Region is supporting schools under enrolment pressure to ensure every child is attending their local neighbourhood school. As part of this effort, Irymple Secondary College is currently following a DE Enrolment Management Implementation Plan for 2025 & 2026. The DE provides guidance for schools and families through the Placement Policy.
Interested families wishing to enrol are asked to contact Irymple Secondary College for information regarding the enrolment procedure.
Students residing in the ISC neighbourhood are guaranteed a place at our school, which is determined on the basis of your permanent residential address. Proof of residency documents and student birth certificates are required in accordance with the DET Placement Policy. Applicable documents can be found on the DE Residential Address Check.
