Brauer College is a government secondary school, located in Warrnambool, Victoria, Australia.
Originally established as Warrnambool Technical School in 1911, the school was renamed Brauer College at the beginning of 1990 (after noted 20th century Warrnambool doctor, Dr. Alfred Brauer), to reflect its change from an outstanding technical institution into a more mainstream and highly regarded college. Brauer has since developed into one of the largest secondary schools in the state with an enrolment of approximately 1450 students ranging from years 7 to 12. The school is known for both outstanding curricular and extra curricular activities, including consistently high VCE results and unmatched levels of success in both the public speaking, performing arts and sporting areas.
Mrs. Boyle is the current acting principal, and the school council president is Mr. Barry Brooks.

“When a girl of today leaves school or college and looks about her for material upon which to exercise her trained intelligence, there are a hundred things that force themselves upon her attention as more vital and necessary than mastering the housewife.”
