In addition to IEC graduates, students in Years 11 and Year 12 include school-aged children working towards their Western Australian Certificate of Education, 18 and 19-year-old repeaters and mature age students, returning to education to gain tertiary entrance qualifications, to follow an interest or to gain a skill-based qualification. Enrolments are accepted from across Western Australia and students hail from many diverse backgrounds. Students enrol because they see Cyril Jackson SC as a place of opportunity to further their education.
The Vision of Cyril Jackson SC is to deliver relevant and applicable learning experiences that foster hope and meet the needs of students. Respect and inclusivity are valued as are opportunity, achievement and resilience. As a school, “CJ Changes Lives”.
