Which school is my address zoned to?

Homes in Mackay fall into different school catchments, and the nearest school is often not the zoned one. 1 of the 4 schools here has a mapped enrolment zone; we hold no published boundary for the other 3. Only an exact address settles it.

Schools in Mackay

4 schools in Mackay: 2 catholic, 1 government, 1 independent.

We don't rank the schools in Mackay. None of the 4 schools here have published school-level attendance or destination data — the remaining figures describe the suburb, and are identical for every school in it. They're listed alphabetically below.

Enrol is the department's own count: QLD non-state schools, February 2026 census, full-time students (full-time students only, Catholic and Independent schools — part-time students are published separately and not added); QLD state schools, February 2019 census, full-time students (full-time students only, state schools — part-time students are not counted). Departments count enrolment in different ways and years, so a figure is comparable only with others from the same series. It is a size figure, not a quality one.

School score is shown only where the school itself publishes a signal — attendance (NSW & SA) or university destinations (VIC). n/a means no such figure is published for that school, so we will not print one: the remaining signals describe Mackay as an area and are identical for every school in it. Our estimate from open data — not ICSEA, not an official rating.
