Under the NSW Education Act 1990, the NSW Government is responsible for providing schooling for NSW resident students. However, the ACT Government has for many years provided education services to NSW residents in the region surrounding the ACT. This long-standing commitment is part of the current ACT-NSW Memorandum of Understanding for Regional Collaboration.
To maintain our commitment to families in the ACT surrounding region, and to provide greater certainty for cross-border families, new arrangements were put in place in 2019. The ACT Government has worked with the NSW Government to ensure these arrangements continue to provide several viable options for NSW families.
When NSW families enrol in the Canberra public school system, you will be given a clear pathway through all stages of schooling including primary, secondary and senior (college) at selected schools in Belconnen and Tuggeranong. Once a student is enrolled on a pathway, they will be guaranteed a place in that pathway. For example, this means any NSW student who enrolled under a particular pathway in the 2021 intake, will be able to continue on that pathway in 2022 and beyond.
Gilmore Primary School is a pathway school.
