Dear Kaipara College,
Please advise the number of Year 9 Out Of Zone (OOZ) enrolments for the 2024 school year.
If the data is available, please have this broken down and show the specific numbers from North-West Auckland. (specifically Kumeu, Riverhead, Huapai, Taupaki, and Coatesville – this would be Post Codes 0782, 0810, 0841, 0833, 0891, 0892,0792, 0793, 0820, and 0882 if this helps)
Could you also please advise your expected or forecast OOZ places in 2025 and 2026.
Finally, could you advise please how many OOZ enrolment requests you received for 2024 Y9 places.
Yours faithfully,
Marcus Cook

Thank you for your enquiry under the OIA.
Before we begin work on your request we need to verify you are eligible
to make the request. For example:
Would you perhaps also be willing to share with us how you intend to use
the data?
If you would like us to provide the data you are requesting we would need
to charge you a fee to cover our costs for collating it.
The charge would be $38 per half hour with the first hour free.
Once you have confirmed that you are willing to accept these charges and
have provided us with the necessary idenitification we will begin work on
your request.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Ngā mihi

Dear Lara Yamamoto,
Thank you for your reply.
Under the OIA, I'm not required to advise why I'm requesting the information or how I intend to use it, only that I'm entitled to make the request. As a NZ Citizen, I confirm I am entitled. Per the Ombudsman, I'm also not required to prove this unless there is a "genuine need" to do so. Please explain the genuine need you see and confirm an email address to which I can send the appropriate proof if I agree that it is necessary.
Be that as it may, the intention of the request is to get a number (and a forecast or expected number) of pupils in Year 9 at local (where students in the request would be likely to go) secondary schools from the intended catchment of the proposed "Kumeu College" to reinforce to the Ministry the need to expedite the proposed school.
In terms of the proposed charge, I'm sure you're aware of the Ombudsman's guidance around charging. I would not consider this request to require "considerable labour" to compile the data (noting my second paragraph starting "*If* the data is available"). If the broken down data would require considerable resource, it's fine to not have that breakdown.
That being said, if you still consider "considerable labour" would be required around the first, third, and fourth paragraphs, please advise an estimate of the time estimated to compile it, and the associated charges.
Yours sincerely,
Marcus Cook

The data was apparently relatively easy to collate and as such there is no
charge.
Please find a pdf with the data you requested attached.
