Jerdacuttup is a dynamic rural school located at the southern end of the Rabbit Proof Fence, 50 km east of Ravensthorpe, 160 km west of Esperance and some 30 km from the rugged southern coast.

The original school was constructed from Ravensthorpe stone and built by parents in 1964. It opened with just eight students and was relocated to its present site in 1979. The original school building now serves as a music room.
