Static preview of this school's scheme area. Preference criteria decide places at state-integrated schools — an address inside the area is not an entitlement.
St Joseph's School (Queenstown) is a state-integrated school. Places go first to applicants with a preference connection to the school's special character (for example, a faith connection), so the usual in-zone and ballot rules don't apply in the same way. Where a geographic priority exists, it works within those preference criteria. Check the school's own enrolment scheme before relying on a zone result.
Your address is only used to check this zone — never shared or shown to schools.

How enrolment at St Joseph's School (Queenstown) works
Ministry of Education enrolment-scheme status, and what it means for an application.
St Joseph's School (Queenstown) is a state-integrated school with an enrolment scheme. Admission turns first on its special-character preference criteria — a religious or philosophical connection the school sets out in its own scheme — rather than on where you live. Any geographic priority applies within those criteria.
When applications from preference applicants exceed the places available, the school selects by ballot. Ask the school which preference category applies to your child and what evidence it needs. Read our guide to out-of-zone enrolment and ballots.
