Paparoa Street School - Minor Amendment

Closed 11 Oct 2023

Opened 11 Sep 2023

Overview

The Ministry of Education is proposing a minor amendment to the enrolment scheme of Paparoa Street School.

Paparoa Street School has an enrolment scheme which has been in place since 1999 and has remained unchanged since that time. The current Paparoa Street School home zone map is drawn to road boundaries and needs to be updated to land parcel boundaries to more precisely identify the properties that fall within their home zone. This will allow more accurate identification of in-zone addresses, particularly when using online search tools.

This minor amendment is therefore required to clarify the inclusion of both sides of boundary roads (Innes Road, Papanui Road, Main North Road and Cranford Street). The written description will also be updated to clarify boundaries and the enrolment scheme wording will be updated to reflect the Education and Training Act 2020.

The proposed commencement date of this minor amendment is 01 January 2024.

Comments can be made to Canterbury.EnrolmentSchemes@education.govt.nz by 11 October 2023.

Following the notification period, the Ministry will consider any comments received and process this minor amendment to ensure it meets the requirements of the Education and Training Act 2020. If the Ministry is satisfied that the enrolment scheme meets these requirements, the enrolment scheme will be finalised and provided to the school board to implement.
