    Please don't send your kids here. EVER

    This school is TERRIBLE they act Asif they are some great school and that we should be "proud to represent them" but they suck, good teachers but the students are horrible, mean, 200% chance of being bullied here, I've had to file so many incedent reports and I had 3% attendance because I was avoiding bullying. Extreme lack of recourses, my math class had 30 students, 28 chairs, and 16 textbooks. Horrible lack of support for neurodivergant students in mainstream, they only give you an SLSO once...

    this school is genuinely not worth your time

    One of the worst schools you could possibly enroll your child into in Australia! The school could not give a single care in the world what happens to anyone enrolled and they will continuously stay that way. This school hasn’t done anything about the many fights occurring on campus and again, when stated they don’t care, it’s true. This school only cares about their “reputation”. They would rather let your child DIE then “ruin their reputation” which by the way, is already ruined. I don’t possib...

    One of the worst experiences

    This school is terrible. Not only do they clearly not care about the students safety and mental health, they would rather uphold the reputation of the school. None of these teachers or staff should get a job as a teacher or EVER work with children if they do not care about their education or safety. You chose this job so why are you going to choose to neglect the importance of the kids you SIGNED UP to educate ans protect? This is ridiculous do better ?

    Does not care for their students

    This school only cares about its reputation and not its students. Do not go to this school unless you want to be bullied, harassed and physically attacked. The grading is based on how much the teacher likes the student and not the work itself. Pathetic school go fix your program and show you actually care about your students.

    This school sucks.

    This school is horrible, they care more about reputation than students safety. If you genuinely care for the students like you should, you would help them after they got beaten up not refuse to get the people in trouble because their in the soccer team. Honestly, find a new job if you can’t treat people fairly, you’re in a school with children. No child is more important than the other.

    Wrong Priorities

    This school has the wrong priorities. They focus on their schools reputation and soccer team instead of helping and protecting the mental and physical health of students, putting their safety at risk.

    great teachers, great facilities, poor students. lots of fights, bashings & other poor displays of behaviour in the community and at/around school grounds.

    traumatised

    Worst experience of my life, it ruined my mental health, and my sanity. The kids and teachers there are horrible. I finally got to leave after my mum realised how bad the school was, only due to me trying to off myself 1/2/22 - 2/3/23, glad I’m outta there..

    worst experience of my life

    please dont put your children in this school. i was bullied and threatened every day. i used to skip class because of the terrible classroom environment and when i tried to tell the teachers how bad things were i got suspended. people threw things, barked and yelled homophobic slurs and according to the teachers i was the bad student because i would break out of school to get away from it. teachers yelled at me when i had panic attacks in class because i didnt understand the work and couldnt ask for help because of my selective mutism (which i had gotten because of the bullying at that school). the assistant principal treated me like i was a bad kid and instead of doing anything to help me he would just punish me.

    worst school in nsw

    shit school teachers suspended people for trying to stop racists n sexiest people. suspended my best mate for defending herself against a teacher screaming at her n making her cry. like what the actual fuck?! they threaten to call the cops on people if they don’t obey n treat us like dogs. their motto should be ‘obey us or get suspended’ as that’s exactly what this school does. they wonder why everyone skips when the teachers allow students to make rude,homophobic, and racist comements n get awa...

    Definitely do not recommend

    special education system is fucked, there is so much bullying that goes on within that doesn’t get dealt with, one girl tried to off herself because of that school and I bet so many others have tried just because of how badly managed the school is, the teachers are either racist, ablest or pedos.
