Shenton College is a co-educational public secondary school located in Shenton Park, a suburb of Perth, Western Australia.
Shenton College was established in January 2001 through the amalgamation of Swanbourne and Hollywood Senior High Schools at a cost of $23.5 million. It was a project headed by the then Education Minister Colin Barnett as part of the Local Area Education Planning (LAEP) process.
The inaugural Principal of the College was Pauline Coghlan who was succeeded by Michael Morgan in September 2008.
In February 2009, Shenton College and Newman Senior High School in the Pilbara announced a sister schooling partnership.
During a freak storm on 22 March 2010, the school was extensively damaged by hail and torrential rain. As a result, the school was temporarily closed to all students. Students from years 8 to 10 were not allowed back for 8 days. Repairs were undertaken, new carpet was laid throughout, and in April 2010 several buildings were upgraded.
In 2015 Shenton College welcomed year 7 students for the first time.

It is a short drive from the M1 motorway. It is close to the site of the Battle of Bosworth, which took place south of Market Bosworth.
