The Enrolment / Application Process
Completion of an Enrolment pack or Specialist Program application is an Application for Enrolment only – submitting this form to the school does not mean that the enrolment has been accepted by the school. The Principal will firstly need to determine if there is classroom accommodation and an appropriate educational program can be provided for your child at the school. In determining whether an appropriate educational program can be provided for your child at the school, the Principal will need to fully consider the information provided on the Enrolment / application form.
You will be notified by the Deputy Principal if your application has or has not been accepted at the earliest opportunity. For parents applying to enrol their children in Morley Senior High School for next year, you will be advised of the outcome of your application by early fourth term.
Please be aware that online submission is unavailable. All forms are required to be printed out and physically handed into the office upon completion, together with the relevant documentation, (as outlined in the enrolment form). Alternatively, you can collect an enrolment pack from the school office.
Year 7 enrolments for the following year are due by the first Friday of Term 3 each year.

Specialist Program Enrolments
Morley Senior High School also operates two specialist courses which comply with specific selection processes. The courses are the Aviation Academy and the Media Arts Design Academy.
A child’s residential address is not a factor in the selection process for the Aviation Academy and the Media Arts Design Academy. All applicants wishing to be considered for placement in the Aviation Academy or the Media Arts Design Academy must complete an entry test at Morley SHS. Tests are held twice a year but applications can be submitted anytime.
