Selective high schools are for students in Years 7 to 12.
Applications are open for approximately 4 months, from November each year to February the following year.
Parents apply when their child is at the end of Year 5 or the beginning of Year 6 for placement in a selective high school in Year 7.
Selective high schools and opportunity classes are one of the ways that the department supports high potential and gifted students. These are students whose intellectual potential exceeds that of students of the same age.
