Playford College
Elizabeth SA
About us Playford College is an impressive coeducational Foundation to Year 12 school in Elizabeth, South Australia. Families are attracted to our College by our education about, and celebration of, the Islamic faith and our strong teaching and learning program focusing on the Australian Curriculum. Students appreciate the kind-hearted and dedicated staff who strive to nurture the emotional, physical, academic, social and spiritual needs of each child. As a new school in 2017, Playford College was blessed to commence with 78 students on an existing school site. By Census Day in 2018 we had 241 students and by Census Day in 2019 we had 307 students from Foundation to Year 9. The growth has continued as we progressed to over 650 students from Foundation to Year 12 by 2024. Playford College introduced a Middle School for Year 6 to Year 9 students in 2019 involving specialist teachers, school provided laptops for each student and a popular student elective offering. By 2022, a Senior School comprised of Year 10, Year 11 and Year 12 was effectively providing a high standard of teaching and learning facilitated by an impressive teaching team. Likewise, the teaching and learning in our Middle school of Years 7, 8 and 9 is strong and inspiring. Our results in 2022 and 2023 have been outstanding with all our students achieving their SACE with DUX results of 96.15 and 98.15. We are a good school getting better every day as we celebrate the Playford Way of ‘Look after yourself’, ‘Look after others’ and ‘Look after this place’. We would be delighted to meet you should you be interested in visiting Playford College as you consider schooling options for your family.
