Selective high schools should let in local students, insists mayor
February 23, 2013
TWO of the state's top selective high schools on Sydney's north shore should introduce comprehensive classes for local students to help cope with the area's enrolments crisis, the North Sydney mayor says.
Jilly Gibson said the Department of Education and Communities should consider making North Sydney Boys' and North Sydney Girls' High only partially selective, so they could also accept local students.
''I think they should seriously consider it. We have a crisis in our local area,'' she said.
As reported in Fairfax Media on Friday, extra demountables have been placed in teacher car parks and new classrooms created in some schools to cope with the surging popularity of local public schools, where enrolments have grown an average of more than 5 per cent this year.
At Mosman High School, one of the few local comprehensives, enrolments grew 9.9 per cent, according to draft figures collected by the the Northern Sydney Regional Council of Parents and Citizens' Associations.
The change could benefit the schools as well as the local community, Ms Gibson said.
''Making [the schools] partially selective and partially local comprehensive would, I believe, be a win-win solution for students from an academic, social and cultural perspective.''
Both schools were in the top three on Fairfax Media's list of high performing schools based on 2012 HSC results.
Only about 5 per cent of the students were from the local area, Steph Croft, an executive member of the P&C council, said. But she said the group's campaign was focused on securing a new school.
''The whole lower north shore needs another high school and a number of our high schools need another building,'' she said.
The public education advocate Jane Caro said students would ''flood in'' to the two schools if the change occurred.
The department would not comment on the proposal. ''A range of options to meet the rising enrolment demand in Northern Sydney Region are being considered,''a spokeswoman said.
