Government primary school facilities catering for Kindergarten to Year 7 are located in Exmouth, Shark Bay, Carnarvon, Gascoyne Junction, Burringurrah Aboriginal Community and Useless Loop.

Secondary school facilities are located in Carnarvon and Exmouth; however schools in all the communities provide Year 8-12 opportunities for local students through the School of Isolated and Distance Education.
