Ashdale Secondary College is an Independent public co-educational specialist high day school, located in the Perth suburb of Darch, Western Australia.
Established in 2009, the school has specialist programs for Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and for Autism Extension (AEP).[3]
History
Because of the subdivision of the suburbs of Landsdale, Darch and Madeley, there was a need for a new school in the area. The school was originally known as Landsdale Secondary College, but the name was changed because of the changing nature of the Darch subdivision.
Ashdale Secondary College opened in 2009 with an intake of 140 year 8 students. Stage one of the building program was completed in October 2009, stage 2 in late 2011 and stage 3 at the end of 2014 to accommodate the new year 7s. In 2009, the school was one of the first in Western Australia to become an independent public school.[4]
