Learning programs

Our schools offer a variety of programs to suit children and young people’s needs and future aspirations.

Choosing a school is a really important decision involving many factors including the needs and aspirations of your children, and the learning style and programs offered at the school.

Public schools offer additional learning programs to foster your child's aspirations and extend their knowledge and growth, including:

programs for children with exceptional academic talent¹
programs for those with special learning needs²
programs for those with a flair for the arts or a passion for sports³
programs for children with a passion for music to learn an instrument⁴
programs for those students living in vulnerable communities like the Follow the Dream program⁵.

We also offer a range of swimming programs⁶, both in-term and during school holidays, to ensure all children in Western Australia can swim safely and confidently.
