学校介绍

  Como Secondary College has an outstanding track record of providing an excellent, affordable education. Our size means that students are not lost in the crowd and allows us to bring out their best in a safe, secure environment. At the same time however, we are large enough to provide students with a curriculum that caters for a range of interests, abilities and aspirations.

  In the 2010 WACE exams Como once again demonstrated that it is one of the best secondary schools in the state. The combination of committed students, dedicated teachers, supportive families and high quality specialist programs produced an excellent set of results. Como Secondary College is a top ten public school and has consistently been in the list of Top 50 WACE schools. The College has won Top Public School Awards in 2006, 2007,  2008 and 2010.

  Como  College delivers excellence in secondary education. With a student enrolment of nearly 700, it enjoys quiet, secure and pleasant environs. Como is well-located being within the community of South Perth and is 6 kilometres from the CBD of the City of Perth. Additionally it is adjacent to Western Australia's largest university, the Curtin University of Technology.

  Como Secondary College is a school of the Department of Education and Training in Western Australia and as such enjoys the support and quality assurance of a government school.

  Our students undertake courses of study in Years 8 to 12 with most of our students coming from the local community. Other students join us from around WA to study one of our four special programs (Science & Technology, Hockey, Golf and Music). In addition, we have a small enrolment of overseas students.

  Como Secondary College is a school with a shared vision for a better future. All members of the school community are encouraged to develop their own personal visions of excellence which respect individual differences and the collective needs of the society and the environment.

  Como's students should seek knowledge and understanding, develop skills and learn to love what is right, what is true and what is beautiful. They must keep the flame of freedom alive in their souls to enable them to reach individual fulfillment whilst serving the greater community.

  Three key values will drive the College forward.

  · CARE - To have care and respect for self, the community and the environment.

  · INQUIRY - To ask difficult questions and search for the elusive answers which will lead to understanding.

  · EMPOWERMENT - To use the knowledge of our strengths to shape our future.
