Public School Review

All Western Australian public schools are externally reviewed by the Department of Education's Public School Accountability directorate. The review gives assurance to our local community, the Minister for Education and Training and the Director General about the performance of the College in delivering high quality education to our students.

Initially conducted on a three-year cycle, subsequent reviews are determined to occur on a one, three or five-year timeframe.

In the 2026 review, the performance of John Forrest Secondary College was deemed to be exceptional.

The next review is scheduled for Term 4, 2029.
