Overview
Students from Years 7 to 12 are accommodated in a middle school (Years 7 to 9) and senior school (Years 10 to 12). St George's Anglican Grammar School is a school of the Anglican Schools Commission. The school is Western Australia's first vertical school - one based in a high rise building rather than on a traditional campus.[1]
St George's Anglican Grammar School opened in January 2015 as the 14th school of the Anglican Schools Commission (ASC). The ASC had acquired the independent Murdoch College, changed its name, and relocated it from the suburb of Murdoch.[2]
