Some Auckland principals are expecting confusion and hostility when they introduce enrolment zones for the first time next month.
Their schools are part of an unprecedented Education Ministry push to create or redraw enrolment schemes at 135 Auckland schools.
The ministry worked with the first 60 schools last year and principals said six of those schools in Manurewa were introducing their zones at the start of term two, May 3.
The principals said all 35 primary and intermediate schools in the area would then have a zone, a change that would not affect children already in the schools but would apply to new enrolments.
