We are a proudly Independent Public School with the unique characteristic of having a working farm on our site. Our ethos encourages personal development while igniting a passion for lifelong learning. Well researched and evidence-based decision making is a hallmark of our practice.

Our students develop skills and abilities that enable them to be responsible, informed, and active citizens who contribute positively to society.
Kiara College is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities in the Performing Arts which enables us to showcase our students' creative talents with dramatic and musical productions. Our dedicated STEM Maker Space, and FABLAB redevelopments ensure students are able to capitalise on real life and industry standard applications of skills in these areas.
Catering for Years 7-12, Kiara College offers comprehensive and innovative programs that support students to achieve their potential. Students can follow an ATAR, General or Vocational (VET) pathway, preparing them for university entry, TAFE, or employment. Pathway planning at Kiara College focuses on the individual. Through early exploration of interests and career opportunities, students are supported to pursue aspirational pathways in all areas. Our partnerships with tertiary institutions such as UWA Aspire, ECU UniPrep and North Metro TAFE facilitate students' further success.
In 2025 we introduced a Specialised Learning Program -Autism. The program is designed for students with autism from years 7-12 and focuses on supporting them to overcome barriers to learning. It encourages participation in mainstream classes and aims to facilitate academic success and overall learning capabilities. We continue to offer two other Specialist Programs: Agriculture and Basketball. All Specialist Program have a competitive entry process and applications can be made via our website. Students are also able to apply to study Contemporary Music.
Our local intake schools include West Beechboro, Beechboro, East Beechboro, Caversham, Caversham Valley, and Lockridge Primary Schools. Our diverse student population of over 650 students includes students who originate from over 24 different countries. Nearly 30% of our students identify as Aboriginal and or Torres Strait Islander. We celebrate and embrace our diversity with a range of programs and activities aimed at promoting respect for all, and we continue to strive to be a culturally responsive organisation.
