Graylands Teachers College
The college was run by the Education Department until 1973, when it became an autonomous body under the umbrella of the Western Australian Teacher Education Authority. Graylands closed in 1979 following the Partridge Report on post-secondary education in the State, which recommended that the other colleges combine to form the West Australian College of Advanced Education and, as far as possible, absorb Graylands' resources, staff and students.
The archives for the college are held at Edith Cowan University. Graylands Teachers College Memorial Scholarships are awarded to "outstanding students in the field of education" at Edith Cowan University in memory of the college.
Notable former students include cricketer Kim Hughes, politician Don Randall and writer Dorothy Hewett.
