St Peter's is a developing triple stream Catholic co-educational primary school situated about 10 kilometres north of the Perth CBD. The school has an enrolment of approximately 600 students from Kindergarten to Year 6 and draws the majority of students from within the parish of Bedford/Inglewood. A recent capital development will see the school grow further. The staff provides an integrated curriculum for all students with Religious Education as the focus. The curriculum draws together the concepts, knowledge, skills, attitudes and values from the Curriculum Framework in developing the competencies of expressing, investigating, communicating, creating and reflecting. There is a range of specialist programs including Liturgical Music, Art, Physical Education, Library, Italian, Reading Recovery and Extension. The school uses the RAISe philosophy for Literacy and Numeracy. The school endeavours to establish close links with parents that result in greater involvement by parents in schooling and other activities; better connection between parents and teachers; community building; and ultimately, better outcomes for students. The school also enjoys a strong relationship with the local parish and parish priest.
