The association is one of a number in the North that is understood to be concerned about how the draft changes would impact it in the future.

The state's public schools have just under two weeks to put their submissions to the Education Department on the draft out-of-home area guidelines and maps, which were revealed for the North on June12.

The proposed changes come after Education Minister Nick McKim sought the School Viability Reference Group report that made a number of recommendations, including a review of school zones, to address the issue of small schools.

Punchbowl Primary School Association and viability working party member Mel Wilcox said the group feared the proposed changes could lead to a decline in enrolments by a third.

She said the association was in the process of completing its submission but it had also requested those that had signed its petition to provide comment to the minister as well.

"We'd lose 230 houses under the proposed changes - so we had a group of parents that have letter- dropped all of the streets in the area," Ms Wilcox said.

"The big three points of concern for us are the potential parents who may not realise this will affect them, the current parents and also parents affected by the loss of choice of high school."

Under the draft changes, the school would lose streets to East Launceston Primary School.

Glen Dhu Primary School would also lose a few streets to East Launceston.

East Launceston Primary School association chairman Ross Smith said the school community had not come to an agreement yet and would meet on Tuesday to discuss the submission.

West Launceston Primary School will lose some streets but gain others elsewhere, however its feeder high school would become only Prospect, ending the association with Riverside.

Association chairwoman Christine Murfet said they anticipated the department would give due consideration to the points raised in their submission.

Department deputy secretary Liz Banks said they had received a number of submissions.
