Rossmoyne Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Academically Shenton College is one of the best state secondary schools in WA. South Fremantle High, not so much! But you shouldn't just judge a school on the educational achievements it has. How the school suits your child is much more important, in my view. Ask to have an appointment with the Principals and be shown around the schools, as you can get a good feel for the school and its ethos this way. You might find that before giving you an appointment, they will ask if you live in their catchment area, but you can always say you are house-hunting and are checking out schools as part of that. Let us know how you go Pegg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scot01 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Shenton College consistently in the top 20 schools beating many of the private schools. Fantastic school, cater for the really bright Uni bound students as well as the others, it would be my choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And everything the deputy head of middle school said was spot on , we were really impressed with the school and the children . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine has taught there and said it was one of the better High Schools in that part of the metro area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
