This form is for students who:

  • are residents of British Columbia
  • whose parent(s)/guardian(s) maintain primary residence outside of the City of New Westminster’s boundaries, and
  • who are applying to attend a public school in New Westminster. 

Please fill out all of the below information if you would like to have your child considered for an out-of-district placement. If the automated confirmation of your submission does not land in your inbox, please check your junk mail to confirm that your submission has been sent.

Due to enrollment growth and space restrictions, a number of the schools within our District have been deemed to be “at full capacity.” Placements cannot be made to schools deemed at capacity, with the exception of students with sibling status (for students with siblings who are already enrolled at that school, and will still be attending them in September 2023). As such, the only school we are currently able to consider out-of-district placements into is New Westminster Secondary School. 

Admission decisions for the desired school or program will be made in June and communicated by June 9, 2023.

A separate form must be submitted for each child you would like to have considered. 

Please Note: Acceptance Out-of-District lasts until the student ages-out of the school of acceptance (Gr. 5 or Gr. 8) and does not guarantee acceptance to an Out-of-District middle or high school.
