Aveley Secondary College is an Independent public co-educational high day school, located in the Perth suburbs of Ellenbrook and Aveley, Western Australia. The boundary between Ellenbrook and Aveley transects the school's campus, with the northern part situated in Ellenbrook and the southern part in Aveley. However, most of the school’s buildings are located in Ellenbrook.
Large population growth in Ellenbrook and surrounding suburbs caused there to be a need for another secondary school in the Ellenbrook area in the early 2010s. The only other secondary school in the area was Ellenbrook Secondary College, which opened in 2007, and was predicted to have enrolment in excess of 2000 students if another school did not open in the area. In 2013, the state Liberal government promised to build a school in northern Ellenbrook by 2017. In December 2013, the opening date for the new school was revised to the start of 2018. [3]
In February 2018, Aveley Secondary College opened for Year 7 students, with each year increasing in the number of year groups until 2023, when the school will have its first Year 12's. Further construction started in December 2019 to build more classrooms, which are now available to the students as of 2021. [4]
Aveley Secondary College's local intake area covers part of Aveley, Baskerville, most of Belhus, Brigadoon, part of Ellenbrook, Millendon, The Vines and Upper Swan. Students living in the local intake area have a guaranteed place at the school if they apply. Students living outside the local intake area can apply as well, but they will be accepted on a case-by-case basis. [1] [5]

Ellenbrook is a northeastern suburb of Perth, Western Australia, about 30 km (19 mi) from Perth's central business district (CBD), located within the City of Swan. Ellenbrook, and its neighbouring suburbs of The Vines and Aveley, are unusual for Perth in being a significant distance from neighbouring suburbs. Given this relative isolation and the distance from the CBD, Ellenbrook has been designed and developed as a self-sustainable community. Since the upgrade of Gnangara Road and the completion of the Tonkin Highway Northlink, access to Ellenbrook has improved. The Morley–Ellenbrook railway line is well underway as at June 2021 and this will enable better public transport. At the time of the 2016 census there were 22,681 people living in the gazetted suburb, by June 2018, it was estimated that the urban population for Ellenbrook and surrounds had grown to 41,382. It is envisioned that Ellenbrook will eventually become a satellite city, with a population of 80,000.
