Emerald Secondary College

Where to begin. Unfortunately I am unable to leave zero stars. Bad....Very Bad is my assessment. Teachers were distant and laissez faire with very little interest in the students they were charged with teaching. For a school that wants to portray themselves as having a great reputation you'd think putting extra care and effort into ensuring student safety and fairness would be a priority. It isn't. Sweeping situations under the carpet and asking that we all pretend situations haven't occurred and importantly, lying about a student's behaviour that is A) not substantiated and B) never fully explained isn't professional or ethical. Do not send your young ones to this school should you value their wellbeing.

worst school ever been to as a former student thank god i left.

Teachers don’t care about mental health whatsoever. Allegations of sexual assault are not taken seriously and if you are lucky they might get a single detention. Teachers care more about a phone in your hand than literally anything else. The kids are rude, most of which are tiny degenerates with mullets walking around like they own the school threatening to rape you if you don’t move out of there way. Standing up for yourself results in constant rumours and invalidation by both the students and teachers. Nobody really cares about anything in this school and there is only 3 teachers MAX that genuinely care. The school is extremely short staffed and I don’t blame them. They make the school seem good to the year 7’s and the year 12’s then forget about everyone else. When I was in year seven (I’m in year 9 now) I was treated like nobody from the other students and was constantly shoved around. There are kids doing lines in class, vaping, the teachers don’t care. The boys toilets are covered in piss and the girls are covered in rumours about every name under the sun. Not to mention the pads that are always stuck on the mirrors, the girls who sit on the floor and gossip while they vape. Nobody goes near the oval due to the amount of bongs and condoms lining it. This school is a disgrace. They spent all their funding on shit that wasn’t needed in the first place like a new office for the staff. Absolutely feral do not send your kid here if you want them to end up not killing themselves.
