As a Victorian Government Secondary School, Princes Hill Secondary College (PHSC) is required to comply with the department Enrolment Policy. A requirement of the Enrolment Policy is that student information is accurately recorded and maintained using the CASES21 student information database. This information is important for the smooth operation of the school but also plays a critical role in the Student Enrolment Census, which is used by the Department for funding allocation, provisioning, planning and national reporting. The information in this database must be regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changes such as:

  • changes in guardianship arrangements
  • student information
  • family information
  • emergency contacts
  • access restrictions
  • medical and disability information
  • parent occupation groups

This page provides the ability for parents/carers to notify the school of updates to any of the information above using secure online processes.

Parent Email Address/Mobile Number

All parents/carers at PHSC have the ability to directly update their email address or mobile phone number in the Compass School Management system. This can be done by navigating to the Tools menu (the cog icon, next to the parent name in the top right corner), and selecting 'Update my Details' from the drop-down menu. When a parent completes this online form, this will trigger an automated email to the school, so that this contact information can be updated in the CASES21 database. Please see the Compass Parent Guide for further information.

Parents/Carers may submit updates to their email address or mobile phone number using this method at any time and are encouraged to keep this important contact information up to date.

Warning
titleIMPORTANT - Student Name Change

Schools can only change the name under which a student is enrolled if:

  • new legal documentation with an amended named is provided, such as:
    • officially amended birth certificate
    • proof of adoption
    • court order authorising another name
  • supporting documentation , which was not originally available, differs from the name provided during conditional enrolment
  • proof is provided that the enrolling parent/carer or the student is using another name under a scheme designed to ensure their safety, such as witness protection.

If requesting a change to legal name of the student, required documentation should be submitted with your update form. Please note that:

  • Princes Hill Secondary College is committed to providing a positive, supportive, and respectful environment to support students who want to affirm or transition gender identity while at school.
  • It is important to note that some external organisations (e.g. VCAA) require evidence that a person’s full name is the same as what is reflected on their birth certificate. This is particularly important for the VCAA who issue VCE and VCAL certificates that can be used as legal forms of identification.
