Frederick Thomas Perkins (23 January 1877 – 13 November 1960) was an Australian schoolteacher and Anglican minister.

Migrating with his family to Queensland, Perkins was educated at the Townsville Grammar School where he became Head boy and Senior Prefect, then the University of Sydney where he took honours in Latin and Greek and, as Eleanor Abbott scholar, resided in St Paul's College.

After completing his master's degree in Latin and a brief spell in teaching, Perkins entered the Church of England priesthood.

In 1918 was charged to become the founding headmaster of the new independent Anglican Cranbrook School in Bellevue Hill, New South Wales.

There he was most successful and would remain as headmaster for sixteen years until he retired in 1932.
