I've been supplying in this area (Franskton, Cranbourne and the peninsula) in primary schools and from what I can gather Frankston High has one of the best reputations in the area (I think I have the name right). It is also one of the best secondary schools in the state!

I have heard that to get into Frankston High you have to be in the catchment area as it is so popular!! Not sure of the exact area of catchment but it doesnt come down as far as Mornington.
