On entering Willetton Senior High School, you will immediately observe the positive engagement between students and staff. The warm and respectful relationships which exist reflect the partnership between all members of the Willetton learning community and the productive contribution of the School Board and parents alike. We share the common goal of inspiring our students to achieve to the maximum of their academic, social and physical potential.
Willetton Senior High School is committed to empowering competent, skilled and socially responsible citizens of a world community and the multicultural and inclusive nature of the school community is both recognised and celebrated. The school is highly regarded locally, nationally and internationally and the demand for enrolment is strong. As a result, strict boundaries for enrolment are applied.
The school caters for around 2600 students from Year 7 to Year 12 in a wide range of courses and subjects in state-of-the-art teaching facilities and buildings. Results achieved in WACE, NAPLAN, STEM, sporting, academic and cultural competitions and examinations are outstanding. Participation in a wide range of extra-curricular activities including the Duke of Edinburgh Awards, solar car vehicle challenge, theatrical and music productions and robotics is encouraged. A domed telescope which can be remotely controlled from home by students enhances the STEM program. Willetton is the only public school in WA to have this facility.
There is a dedicated Student Services Centre staffed by highly trained practitioners to support both parents and teachers, and students with special academic and emotional needs are catered for in both a fully staffed Learning and Curriculum Support Centre as well as smaller classes. A Gifted and Talented Education Program and a Specialist Basketball Program operate from Year 7 to 12 and extension Art and Computing courses are available from Year 8 for students eligible for enrolment at the school.
Willetton Senior High School is an Independent Public School to be proud of!
