Birrong Girls High School

The school was overall average, not any better or worse than other schools in the area. My issue is less with the buildings or students but with the teachers especially the head of History, she was generally polite but had an a bias towards her own students regarding rumours and fights within my year group. She favoured her students and publicly berated others without knowing all sides, or allowing for an incident report for everyone to clear their sides. She openly admitted that despite the evidence contradicting her students, she refused to believe my side of the story, repeatedly interrupted me to yell about how she doesn’t care to know the truth, and told me that if i spoke about the incident she would take further actions to have me removed from the school, mind you this was my first time ever being apart of an incident so i knew she was bluffing but to threaten and so publicly was humiliating. Despite her constant attempts to ‘make me confess’, i plainly told her the truth, she wasn’t satisfied, told me she has no idea who i am and that she has no reason to believe, ignoring my request for an incident report, she then threatened me a final time and told me that no other teacher would believe me over her and her students.

Mostly teachers are amazing and do a great job of getting content across to students, school has a large percentage of Muslim students which creates a comforting and supportive environment for students although students tend to have a random racist view toward brown people, obviously liek every school there are bad teachers who can’t control a class or can’t teach content in the best manner and bad students but there are also good teachers and students who aren’t rude. Teachers have NEVER discriminated against anyone based on religion at least for the 6 years I attended the place although some do play favourites.

Some of the teachers at the school are probably the only good thing about the school not only does the school care more about your socks then education the school is racist towards Muslims they don’t provide a good prayer room but once a teacher threatened and did lock 2 girls in a room for praying in there even though it was pouring rain. Not welcoming towards Arabs and overall a very poor school.
