TSS has changed our daughter’s life, outlook on life and how she feels about going to school.
We have never had a child feel excited to go to school after the school holidays, until now. Besides the fact that she is attending school, having productive days and learning, she is happy, content, confident and navigating her way through adolescence in such a positive way and a big reason is because she feels heard and supported at TSS! She travels for 3 hours to and back from school and never complains about it.
Thank you to the unbelievable staff & the program at TSS for giving her the many opportunities to shine bright like the star she is.

Welcome to The Studio School, where school looks different.
TSS is an alternative model of education for students in Years 10–12, offering a more flexible and personalised approach to the senior years from our campus in the heart of Fremantle.
Through our studio model, students have greater choice and ownership as they work towards their WACE, with the time and space to explore their interests, build on their strengths and create a pathway around where they want to go next.
Learning connects with life beyond school through real-world projects, industry experiences, creative pursuits and entrepreneurial opportunities. No two pathways need to look the same. Students can pursue what genuinely interests them while developing the independence, skills and confidence to take their next step.
Whether that means university, further training, work, enterprise or a pathway still taking shape, TSS gives young people the freedom and support to make their senior years purposeful and genuinely their own.
At The Studio School, the pathway starts with the student.
Rather than expecting every young person to follow the same program, TSS takes a personalised approach. Each student develops an individual learning plan shaped around their interests, strengths, ambitions and the support they need to thrive.
That plan can bring together:
- subjects and courses contributing towards their WACE
- VET, endorsed programs and workplace learning
- projects that allow students to pursue their interests in meaningful ways
- individual academic and wellbeing goals
- future pathways, from university and further training to work and entrepreneurship.
With mentoring and support from TSS staff, industry professionals and other mentors, students can adapt and develop their pathway as their interests and goals evolve. The model provides flexibility for students across a wide range of abilities, including those who benefit from additional support and those looking to extend themselves in particular areas.
Students work towards their WACE, with the option to pursue an ATAR pathway where it supports their goals.
Curriculum at The Studio School is flexible by design. Rather than every student following the same program, learning is shaped around each student’s strengths, interests, aspirations and future pathway.
Students work towards their WACE through an individual program that can bring together:
General courses and endorsed programs
VET qualifications and structured workplace learning
ATAR courses, where appropriate to the student’s goals
studio projects connected to individual interests and ambitions
opportunities to apply learning through authentic, real-world experiences.
Each student’s individual learning plan maps their learning goals, program of study, projects and pathway, alongside any academic or wellbeing support they may need. Regular mentoring helps students stay connected to their goals while allowing their program to evolve as their interests and plans develop.
Students pursuing ATAR courses can access these through a blended learning model, combining online and self-paced learning with virtual lessons and face-to-face support from TSS Mentor Teachers.

At TSS, learning isn’t confined to a traditional classroom. The Fremantle campus combines classroom, co-working and creative spaces, giving students different environments for focused study, collaboration, mentoring and hands-on project work.
And the learning environment extends well beyond the campus doors. With Fremantle on the doorstep, the city itself becomes part of the TSS experience, opening up opportunities for projects, excursions, industry connections and community engagement.

TSS has a young adult ethos, giving students greater independence while keeping support close at hand.
Students are encouraged to take responsibility for their learning, time and commitments, supported by Mentor Teachers who know them well and provide ongoing guidance across both learning and wellbeing. The small TSS community helps create strong relationships between students and staff, with additional specialist support available when needed.
Student voice matters too. Students help shape social events, community initiatives and celebrations, building a school experience that feels genuinely theirs.
Empathy, Respect, Integrity and Courage.
Making a positive difference in our world.
The Studio School supports its unique and diverse young people to flourish through co-designed and personalised pathways that support them to recognise and apply their abilities to contribute to, and effect, meaningful change in the world.

Choosing the right school for the senior years is about more than subjects and courses. It’s about finding an environment where a young person can grow in confidence, discover what motivates them and begin shaping what comes next.
At The Studio School, we offer an alternative model of education built around exactly that. Where school looks different, students have greater flexibility to personalise their pathway, pursue their interests and connect their learning with meaningful projects, experiences and opportunities beyond the classroom.
From our Fremantle campus, students work towards their WACE within a small, supportive community that encourages independence while ensuring they are known, challenged and supported along the way.
What excites me most about TSS is the possibility it creates for young people. Their pathway can reflect who they are now, while giving them room to explore who they might become.
I warmly invite you to visit TSS, meet our community and explore what a different kind of senior school experience could look like for you.
