It became the second teachers' college to be established in the state after Claremont Teachers College, with three others established subsequently.

Graylands closed in 1979 following the Partridge Report on post-secondary education in the State, which recommended that the other colleges combine to form the West Australian College of Advanced Education and, as far as possible, absorb Graylands' resources, staff and students.

Graylands Teachers College Memorial Scholarships are awarded to "outstanding students in the field of education" at Edith Cowan University in memory of the college.
