Founded in 1980, Cecil Andrews College is situated in the fast developing City of Armadale, in the locality of Seville Grove.
Over the years we have grown catering for a diverse student body. We offer Specialist Arts, Specialist AFL and STEM Programs, as well as delivering TAFE certificate courses and offering traineeships and apprenticeship links for students whilst completing their secondary education. We make it our priority to foster a wide range of pathways to university, TAFE, further training and the workplace.
We understand that every student has different needs - physically, emotionally and mentally. Our comprehensive Student Wellbeing Team has experienced staff who are able to provide tailored support to students and families as required. Peer support programs and breakfast club provide support and life skills. This means each student has a safe place to go where they belong and feel nurtured. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students can also access additional support from dedicated staff through our successful Clontarf, Stars Foundation and Follow The Dream programs.
Our academic extension program, with dedicated staff, ensures that students engage in challenging learning opportunities and experience's through our strong partnerships with universities, industry and business. This allows students to achieve their potential and pursue an academic ATAR pathway in Year 11 and 12, towards tertiary studies and become successful in their future field of endeavour.
Our P-Tech (Pathways in Technology) program, a new way of skilling students for the workforce of the 21st century, enables unique learning and mentoring partnerships. Our industry partners include Austal Australia, Datacom, Civmec and Deloitte. Access to these exceptional companies prepares each participant with job-ready skills. P-Tech and our other vocational programs provide students with pathways to university, TAFE and further training and the workplace. A digital technologies focus, including coding and robotics, and strong emphasis on literacy and numeracy across all learning areas at the college, further strengthen students' capabilities and increases pathway options towards, employment, training and further studies.
Our college motto is 'Achieving Excellence Together' and this is embedded in everything we do. We aim to provide all our students with a passion for learning and help them to develop the skills and knowledge that will allow them to become active citizens in a world of innovation and change. We look forward to educating your child and watching them develop their strengths and be ready for tomorrow.
