Trends in Enrolments
Three major events
•Impact of middle schooling•Impact of universal prep•Impact of the GFC (Global Financial Crisis)
2
Sector-wise things look pretty good
• Independent school enrolments are increasing
3
• Independent school marketshare is increasing
4
The ‘market’ is increasing
5
The Future – looks good too
6
Forecast Growth in Children Aged 4-16,
2006-2011 and 2011-2016
7
BUT• While the future looks good at the State
level.....– Just like some States have growth and some
have decline forecast, areas of the State are also experiencing differences.......
– Its knowing what's happening where and when that's important.
8
And• There are a couple of other things you need to
be aware of:– What has happened to Independent school
marketshare following the introduction of ‘universal’ prep
– What increased middle school intakes, and increased Independent school participation in primary, may mean for secondary intakes
– What has happened to enrolment levels as a consequence of the “GFC”…it too has had an impact.
9
The following information is to help answer these questions….
• To make it easier (and more specific to your school)– Independent schools have been grouped into regions,
based on ABS’s Statistical Subdivisions (SSDs).– In some cases a number of SSDs have been grouped
together for reporting purposes – in order to ensure confidentiality of individual school enrolments.
– You have a list showing which region your school belongs in.
– The following gives an idea of the areas:

Part 1: Enrolment Patterns• Enrolments are for 2003-2008 (Commonwealth Census)• Data excludes distance education students and special schools• There is a ‘data-break’ in enrolment numbers with the half-cohort in
2007. This means:– P-12 enrolments can’t be compared pre 2007 to post 2007– P-7 enrolments can’t be compared pre 2007 to post 2007– Year 8-12 can be compared as they will not be impacted until the half
cohort enters Year 8• Key to future trends is looking at the major intake years – Prep and
Year 8….if these are increasing it’s good!– However, prep enrolments are ‘unreliable’ with a half cohort in 2007,
followed by a full cohort….so Year 1 enrolments from 2003-2007 are the best indicator currently available for trends in numbers of students entering the education system.
– Year 8 hasn’t been impacted – so we can look at trends from 2003-2008

Part 2 - Marketshare• There are generally two ways a school (or sector)
increases enrolments…– Through catering for enrolment growth in the area– Through capturing marketshare
• Reporting of marketshare is not impacted by the half-cohort in prep…..except in as much as there has been a major shift in marketshare
• Overall the Independent sector tends to have gained marketshare….but not everywhere…– In your school’s area has the Independent sector
gained (or lost) marketshare to Catholic and/or State schools?

Part 2: Impact of middle school intakes
• Traditionally major intakes have occurred at Prep/Preschool, Year 1 (prior to 2007) and Year 8
• This pattern is still prevalent in the State sector and the Catholic sector (with the exception of Year 1 ceasing to be a major intake year with the introduction of prep). – In some areas, particularly growth areas, the State has
moved on occasion to a P-12 model as have a number of Catholic schools (particularly order schools moving from a secondary model to a middle and secondary model e.g. Year 5-12).
• The majority of Independent schools offer P-12, with a large number having moved to a junior, middle and senior school structure.– Major intakes being in Prep, the start of the ‘middle school’
(Year 5, 6 or 7) and Year 8.
30
What is the potential impact?• Has the introduction of an increased intake
into the middle school years resulted in more students entering Independent schools
OR• Has it meant that students who would
have been expected to enter Year 8 have just entered earlier….resulting in fewer students entering in Year 8 (and difficulties in filling Year 8 intakes)
31
Apparent Progression of Year 7 students going to Year 8 in
Independent schools• Compares the number of Year 7 students
in one year to the number of Year 8 students in the next year at Independent schools.– Gives an indication of the proportion of ‘new’
students compared to existing students progress
– The higher the progression rate the greater proportion of students at the school are ‘new’ students.

How will schools with 4 streams in secondary and 2 streams in the middle school fill Year 8
enrolments?
35
Part 3: The Global Financial Crisis
• Enrolments have continued to grow
• Note: February data for 2009 was only available at the school level for Independent schools. As a result we don’t know what happened in other sectors.
• Data excludes FFPOS and Distance education students.
Has it had an impact?
36
But• Rate of growth slowed in terms of
– P-12 enrolments– P-7 enrolments– Year 8 enrolments

Another possible impact• Reduction in the level of in-migration• Students entering Independent schools
from other sectors and/or interstate and overseas reduced in the 2008-09 period compared to the 2007-08 period (12.7% reduction)– E.g. In 2008 there were 5,977.2 more students in Years 2 to 12 than
there were students in Years 1-11 in 2007 (who are the Year 2-12 cohort in 2008). In 2009 there were 5,220.7 more students in Years 2 to 12 than there were students in Years 1-11 in 2008 (who are the Year 2-12 cohort in 2009).
• Progression rates have also reduced

So...• What does all of this mean? What should
schools do?• You probably need to ask for a statistical
analysis every five or so years• Look at your statistical area –
– If there is a decline in numbers, you need to market; and ‘catch’ enrolments from other sectors
– If there is growth, is the growth enough? Is there going to be a problem overtime with middle schooling enrolments? What does this mean in terms of changes you might need to consider?
