Overview edit
The college was initially established in 1978 as Maddington Senior High School,[1] and renamed as Yule Brook College in 2000.[2] It caters for students from Year 7 to Year 10.
The school's creation was a result of government restructuring education facilities in the south east metropolitan corridor. Two new middle schools, Yule Brook and Cannington Community College, were opened in 2000 and 2001 respectively. A new senior campus, Sevenoaks Senior College for Year 11 and 12 was also opened in the old Cannington Senior High School site.[3]
Enrolments at the school have been reasonably stable with around 250 students when Year 7 started intake at the school in 2015. Yule Brook College uses the Big Picture Education design, which focuses on "one student at a time".
