Important Information

The address must be the student’s main place of residence. The Board expects students to remain resident in zone for the duration of their enrolment with the Westlake Boys High School.
Temporary living arrangements (e.g. homestays, friends, or relatives) are not accepted.
Submitting an application does not guarantee enrolment—this is only confirmed once the student begins attending.

Step 2: Submit Your Application
Once you have prepared all of the required documentation, complete the online enrolment form and upload all the documents. Mobile phone photos can often be too large to upload, so you may need to reduce the file size using an online compression tool before attaching them. Uploading documents as PDFs is usually the most effective option. Please name the file to indicate the content.

Residence verification checks may be conducted.
It is compulsory to attend the 15-minute enrolment interview, accompanied by a parent or caregiver, for the application to be considered complete. This meeting provides an opportunity to learn more about the school, ask questions, and explore what Westlake Boys High School offers.
