Gidgegannup Primary School was opened in 1992 and is located approximately 20 kilometres east of Midland in the Darling Ranges and about 40 minutes east of Perth by car. Gidgegannup Primary School is located within the City of Swan and caters predominantly to the residents of Gidgegannup, Morangup, Stoneville and Gidgegannup Springs. The catchment area is rather widespread necessitating a portion of the school population to travel to school by bus.

The school is in a semi-rural setting with extensive, well maintained grounds, enjoying a range of educational facilities that address the needs of nearly 300 students from kindergarten to Year 7. The classroom clusters are built on the contours of a hill using this elevation to advantage. The school offers an extensive educational programme catering for a broad range of student abilities, needs and interests. Individual student performance is targeted through teaching and learning outcomes by a dedicated and experienced teaching staff. There are specialist teachers in the areas of Physical Education, Music, LOTE and Library.

The school has strong links with parents and the local community. Participative decision-making is possible through involvement in the School Council and Parents and Citizens' Association

Gidgegannup Primary School aims to enable all children to have the opportunity to acquire the skills necessary to realise their full potential in life; socially, intellectually, emotionally and physically.
