Loyola Senior High School (1993- 2019), or commonly Loyola, was an independent Roman Catholic comprehensive co-educational secondary day school for students in Year 11 and Year 12, located in Mount Druitt, a western suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. An Ignatian school in the tradition of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, the school was founded in 1993 and is a current member of the Christ Catholic College Community of Schools, linked to the international network of Jesuit schools begun in Messina, Sicily in 1548. The school is administered through the Catholic Education Office of the Diocese of Parramatta.

Loyola Senior High School closed at the conclusion of the 2019 Higher School Certificate year and the site was incorporated into CathWest Innovation College and is known as CathWest Innovation College - Loyola Campus

The eight-hectare (twenty-acre) lightly wooded and landscaped site received the Sulman Award from the Royal Australian Institute of Architects for its design.
