A Capacity Management Plan (CMP) is one of the strategies that the Department for Education employs to support government schools that are experiencing increased enrolment demand. Increased enrolment demand occurs due to several factors including changes to the demographic profile of the local community and increases in local housing development. The purpose of a CMP is to assist a school to return to, or maintain, a sustainable enrolment level and to assist children to be able to attend their local school. The CMP outlines the enrolment criteria relevant to each school. The Department for Education has been implementing CMPs since 2009. Generally, the CMPs, over a period of time, have supported schools to manage enrolment demand within their school enrolment capacity. Further strategies include the provision of additional accommodation, implementation of a school zone or planning for new educational facilities. CMPs are approved by the Minister and published in the South Australian Government Gazette. Refer to the Capacity Management Plan webpage for more information and links to the CMPs published in the South Australian Government Gazette.
