MLC is proud to be an independent girls school Perth, offering a world-class education for girls from Early Learning (age 2) through to Year 12. As a mission-driven, not-for-profit school governed by our own Board, we have the freedom to design programs that align with our vision: empowering every girl to own her story and shape her future.
There are no limits to what students can achieve in a girls’ school. At MLC, one of the leading all girls schools Perth families choose, girls are surrounded by female role models who help them see who they can be. We give every girl the space to be seen and heard; to take risks, make mistakes and get involved; to be her authentic self and discover what truly excites her.
Research provides compelling evidence that a girls-only education is associated with higher academic achievement, greater confidence and increased participation in STEM. In girls’ schools, learning is free from gender stereotyping, which nurtures self-esteem, grit and the belief that she can achieve her full potential.
Globally, women still represent only around 35% of STEM graduates, reflecting persistent social norms and biases — one reason tailored programs that encourage girls to explore STEM, lead and speak up matter.
Students who receive an all-girls’ education are also more likely to select traditionally male-dominated subjects, take up leadership opportunities and ask more questions than in a co-ed classroom — trying everything without fear of failure.
As a leading Perth girls school, MLC’s wellbeing, leadership, development and educational programs are designed specifically for girls, setting them on the path toward purposeful futures.
