Upon receipt of your completed application form and fee payment, we will process your application. If a place is available in the year group, we will arrange an interview for you and your child, in person or online, with a member of our senior leadership team.

For year groups that are fully subscribed, your child will be placed on our priority waiting list and you will be contacted as soon as a place becomes available.

DBIS offers places in the following priority order:

• At the Head of School's discretion
• Premium School Development Levy (PSDL)
• Siblings of children already attending our school
• Returning DBIS families
• According to the date of the application fee payment

After a successful interview, an available place will be offered.

Once the place is accepted, payment of the first instalment of the school development levy (excluding Years 12 and 13) will be required before the student starts school.
