    Byford SC is a newer school in Perth's southern suburbs. We have first class facilities to support high quality teaching and learning programs in our college. Located approximately 30 kilometres from the Perth CBD, our College caters for 1500 students in Years 7 through to 12. We offer a unique setting to many other metropolitan schools, with a blend of urban and rural students; this creates a vibrant mix of students and staff within the college community.

    At Byford SC, we work together to provide effective learning experiences where we all grow, and students are prepared for a successful life beyond school. Our college's moral purpose underpins everything we do, and as such, our teaching and allied professionals report a high level of engagement and satisfaction in working at Byford SC.

    Staff are supported both personally and professionally, with a keen focus on work-life balance. Targeted support is available for staff across all career stages, from graduate mentoring, classroom observations, instructional coaching and aspirant leadership development programs. Our school's planning and improvement is based on the Fogarty Edvance program, which is supported and promoted by all leaders across our college. In 2024 we will also embark on a pilot teacher Intern program, ITE-EXTEND with Murdoch University that we provide selected teachers with the opportunity to collaborate with the university to engage and support high quality graduates in long term internships at the College.

    Our school motto, Aspire to Excellence, clearly articulates our vision of being the secondary school of choice for the local community providing a comprehensive suite of subjects from Years 7 through 12. The College offers an academic extension program for students by selection, in partnership with the University of Western Australia. This 'Aspire' program provides these students with access to the university's staff and facilities to enhance their learning experience.

    Our commitment is to meet the needs of each student by carefully nurturing their progress through differentiated delivery in every classroom. Whether a student in our integrated Education Support Facility or an Aspire student, we are committed to ongoing pathway planning and review so that each young person has the opportunity to reach their full potential and achieve their post-school aspirations. Byford SC has an outstanding track record supporting the provision of tailored service for our students with disabilities through our state of the art Integrated Facility.
