Form 305-01: Designated School Exemption Application 
In order for the Board to manage space, personnel, and resources, each school has a designated attendance area - as described in Section 10(1) of The Education Act and Administrative Procedure 305. In most circumstances, unless there are unique or special requirements, students will attend their designated school.  

The request to attend a school of choice should be educational in nature and/or specific to the student's unique learning requirements. Where a parent believes there are unique or specific circumstances that require their child to attend a non-designated school, FORM 305-01 is required. 

A parent's request for a school of choice will be considered through the lens of available space and sufficient resources in accordance with Section 10(2) and 10(3) of The Education Act (2025).

Important: Requests received after June 15th will not be considered until school offices open in August.  

Prior to requesting enrollment at a school of choice, please read the following:  

1. School of choice enrollment requests are approved on a student-by-student basis.

2. The student's approval at the school of choice is granted for the one school year only, and they are required to re-apply each year to ensure compliance with Section 10(3) which requires attendance area students receive priority over non-attendance area applicants.  

3. Every GYPSD school has the supports and services required for the optimal education of students. Supports are centrally distributed so that regardless of the attending school, students’ needs are addressed by our certificated staff and specialized professionals.

4. The following examples do not constitute educational reasons:
  • availability of day care;
  • parent's desire to not have a child walk;
  • interest in attending a school with friends or teammates; and,
  • parent/guardian preference.
Please provide full details in the required areas below.  Incomplete forms will be returned.
