The school in Keilor Lodge
Ordered by size, not by results — 0 government, 1 Catholic and 0 independent. Schools with more than one campus are counted once.
What these columns mean
- Type
- Prep-to-12 is one school a child can start and finish at without changing schools. Specialist schools also appear as Prep-to-12.
- 5 yr
- Change in enrolments against five years ago, not against last year. Enrolments move slowly, so a single year is mostly noise.

Government zoning
Which catchments cover Keilor Lodge
2 government catchments cover Keilor Lodge — 1 secondary and 1 primary — so which one applies depends on the address, not the suburb. The secondary catchment is Taylors Lakes Secondary College.
| CatchmentThe area around a government school where living there guarantees your child a place. Boundaries follow streets, not suburb lines, so an address near the edge of a suburb may be zoned elsewhere. They are redrawn each year. | Level |

| Taylors Lakes Secondary College | Secondary |
| Taylors Lakes Primary School | Primary |
