    Hon Sue Ellery MLC Minister for Education and Training Leader of the Legislative Council Your Ref Petition No 5 Our Ref 61-03496 Hon Matthew Swmboum MLC Chair Standing Committee on Environment and Public Affairs Legislative Council Committee Office Parliament House 4 Harvest Terrace WEST PERTH WA 6005 Thank you for your letter dated 17 August 2017 regarding Petition No 5 - Oppose central education plan for Perth Modern School. I am pleased to provide comment on the terms of the petition and the submissions from the principal petitioner and tabling member as requested. 1. Whether the decision to build a new school at Kitchener Park appropriately addresses the significant growth in demand for places at secondary schools in the western suburbs The Government s decision to build Inner City College (planning name) in Subiaco - combined with current works at Churchlands Senior High School and Shenton College, and works in the future at Mount Lawley Senior High School - clearly addresses the significant growth in demand for places at secondary schools in the inner and western suburbs of Perth. Inner City College will be built on Kitchener Park, the grassed area located next to Subiaco Oval currently being used as a car park. Due to significant growth in student numbers in nearby suburbs, the location of the new local- intake school in Subiaco will provide enrolment relief for Churchlands Senior High School, Shenton College and Mount Lawley Senior High School Student enrolment projections show that growth is closer to the central business district than the coast This is mainly due to future population growth on the coast being limited because the coastal strip to the north and south of City Beach has restrictions on the subdivision of land, and because there is a significant number of parks and green spaces in City Beach.

    City of Subiaco Metropolitan Local Government Reform Proposal to the Local Government Advisory Board to form a new local government through the amalgamation of the City of Subiaco and the forecast expanded City of Perth CONTENTS Introduction ............................................................................................. 1 Proposal requirements .............................................................................. 2 Nature of the proposal .......................................................................... 2 Effect of the proposal on local governments .......................................... 3 Reasons for the proposal – Local government structural reform in Perth's western suburbs .................................................................................... 4 Plan – Proposed new local government boundaries .................................. 7 Introduction Metropolitan local governments in Perth are presently engaging with the state government’s Metropolitan Local Government Reform agenda which was announced on 30 July 2013. The state government’s preferred model is based on the recommendations contained within the Review into Metropolitan Local Government report (completed in July 2012), and was for a reduction in the number of local governments in the Perth metropolitan area from 30 to 14. The mechanism by which this change is expected to occur was announced in August 2013, with local governments invited to make a proposal to the Local Government Advisory Board (LGAB) in accordance with the state government preferred model. To date, 18 of the 27 affected local governments have made proposals or submissions to the LGAB. (No change was proposed to the boundaries of three existing local governments, though one of these, the City of Rockingham, has made a submission.) The state government's model for reform has been further amended since these proposals or submissions were made and on 12 November 2013, a model for 15 local governments in the Perth metropolitan area was announced.
