All schools in Western Australia are required to teach according to the outcomes set out in the mandated “Curriculum Framework”. The Curriculum Framework sets out a series of outcomes which describe the knowledge, understandings, skills, values and attitudes that students are expected to acquire through their schooling from K to 12. These outcomes are divided into eight Learning Areas with thirteen overarching statements.

In keeping with the aims of the College, Religious Education is an integral part of the curriculum and is studied by all students. Opportunities for Mass, Paraliturgies and Retreats are incorporated into the Religious Education programme at opportune times throughout the year. In WA Catholic schools, Religious Education has been mandated by the Church as a 9th Learning Area.

The curriculum is balanced to develop the spiritual, academic, cultural and sporting potential of students. It also prepares them for living in an increasingly technological and changing society.

The fundamental role of curriculum is to promote:
- a love of learning
- life long learning
- excellence in learning

Specific details regarding the curriculum from Year 8 to Year 12, together with co-curricular opportunities, are provided in the individual Handbooks.
