When you visit our school you will discover that BPCS is an intimate, caring and innovative 21st Century school catering for children from Playgroup and Early Years through to Middle School and College, including Specialist Programs.
We pride ourselves in offering a unique educational choice between mainstream and established alternative schooling. We cater for families looking for a nurturing environment that supports the latest research and best practice across ages and stages of child development.
We emphasize developing skills and understandings to create a community where children respect and value their families and the society in which they live, where they know and value themselves and are comfortable with the challenges ahead.
Our goal is that Bold Park Community School will continue to be a model of excellence for the 21st century. As our Founding Principal Gillian McAuliffe says, “To seek to keep the light alive in children’s eyes.” |

We know that healthy relationships and community connections are central to thriving. At its core, our school holds the right of children and young adults to an educational environment that sustains a bold and joyful approach to learning. By promoting creativity and real-world experiences, we connect learning to the life of our community, making it meaningful and creating a sense of belonging. Through mutual respect, our students understand both how to be brave with their voices and what it means to participate in a democratic environment. |

Our College Program is designed around what young people need to thrive in the modern world.
We are one of only a few schools in WA to make a Certificate IV qualification available to Year 11 and 12 students. The Certificate IV Design offering has been a perfect program for students to enter tertiary study pathways and post-secondary careers. Our Year 10 students also are uniquely able to earn a Certificate II in Visual Arts, which contributes to the completion of their West Australian Certificate of Education (WACE). The real strength, however, lies in the links between these nationally recognised programs, WACE studies, extracurricular activities and other opportunities available with and through our College program. |
