Our scholarships reflect this dedication, providing opportunities for students to reach their fullest potential.

Frederick Irwin Anglican School upholds high standards of personal presentation and behaviour along with strong values. We operate in a structured environment where every student is encouraged and supported to excel. We provide a rich and diverse learning experience, ensuring that each student has the opportunity to thrive academically and personally.

In the early years of secondary school, students explore a wide range of subjects, and in the Senior Secondary years, we offer a broad selection of WACE courses, allowing students to tailor their education to their strengths and interests. With modern, purpose-built facilities and air-conditioned classrooms, we ensure a comfortable, inspiring environment for learning.

We are proud to award a number of Academic and Music Performance Scholarships for students entering Years 7, 10 and Year 11 in 2026 and Sport Scholarships for students entering Years 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 in 2026.
