Cocos Islands District High School (Malay: Sekolah Tinggi Daerah Pulu Cocos[1]) is the school of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Australia. The West Island campus serves grades K-10 with separate secondary and elementary wings while the Home Island campus serves grades K-6.[2]

Demographics

As of 2019 about 80% of the pupils speak English as a second language. Most of the Home Island students are Cocos Malays; this differs in West Island since the majority of persons living there originated from the Australian continent.[2]

As of 2019 most staff reside on West Island, and those who teach on Home Island travel between the islands on a daily basis. The majority of staff live in residences owned and maintained by the Australian national government.[2]
