Butler College is an Independent public co-educational high day school located in Butler, a northern suburb of Perth, Western Australia. Founded in 2013, the school has been running for 13 years to date. The values, Knowledge, Integrity and Respect have shaped students beginnings and continue to guide how we learn, lead, and relate to one another.

Background

Butler College opened at the beginning of 2013 as an Independent Public School. It is situated in one of the fastest growing areas of Perth, with student numbers rapidly increasing since it opened. Alkimos College opened to year 7 students in 2020 to take pressure off Butler College.[3] Another secondary school is planned to be built in Alkimos by 2024.[4][5]
