The Minister for Education and Training, the Hon Sue Ellery MLC, has announced a community consultation to gather the views of local parents and community members on the current structure of public schools in the Cannington and Maddington area.
This consultation will consider the structure of education at Cannington Community College, Cannington Community Education Support Centre, Sevenoaks Senior College and Yule Brook College.

A community forum to discuss the consultation will be held on Wednesday, 2 September 2020, from 6.00pm to 7.00pm at the Yule Brook College performing arts theatre, 61 Dellar Road, Maddington.
