Papanui High School has adopted an amendment to its current enrolment scheme that has been approved by the Secretary for Education. Under this scheme, students will be enrolled if they live within the home zone which predominately remains the same, with a minor expansion of the zone in the Northern end. The enrolment of out-of-zone students is governed by the provisions of the Education Act 1989.
