Not a good school overall
Made lots of friends there and was pretty known, but if you’re a kid or have a kid with poor mental health or just in general, look elsewhere. The kids at Forest Lake can be quite rude, and the teachers at this school are absolutely USELESS. There’s no mental support, besides the student councillors, and them alone do nothing. They’ll sit you in a room for however long, and do absolutely nothing to help with what you’re going through. Skipped class everyday due to poor mental health, and instead of giving me extra support, put me on suspension, and made me come back as if it was going to do something. If you get into a fight with another child, they’ll take no extra measures to assure that you and that other kid will be on good terms. They’ll suspend both of yous, and make you come back whenever and put you in the same class as if nothing happened. Teachers don’t care, the learning there is just a bunch of stuff being thrown at you without any support. Learnt more at a flexible school in 1 year than all my years spent at Flake. Overall, don’t recommend. So glad I left.
not recommended
This is the worst school I have ever been too. the disrespect My deputy principal had on my mother was my deputy talked over my mother and ignored everything she has said. and this school the teachers believe students when they lie and pushing and bullying and leaving students out once the innocence of the student being pushed away and the student defend themselves they are the ones that gets suspended even if someone that really hates them make everyone say the same lie just to get that innocent student kicked out of the premises. I would not recommend anyone of my family to this school.
Inclusive, clean, supportive
It has been very fun, inclusive of the many cultures, and backgrounds. The school tries their best to provide us good hygiene but the students would ruin the bathrooms a lot. Everyday, the janitor has to clean that up…however, they do a very good job at keeping the bathrooms clean every day. Teachers also care not only about the student’s studies but also their mental health, and they try very best to help students out. I have teachers like this and it’s very warm to see them do their best to support such students.
Stuff
Add a cadet unit and it'll become better
terrible
teachers continuously yell, tuck shop food out of date, constant bullying from others, toilets with no doors or soap dispensers and sometimes no toilet seats, discriminated by teachers when asking for help/to go somewhere.
Bad bad bad school
This school in unfair to its students. The principal is absolutely ridiculous with rules and lets students have zero freedom at all, no wonder they rebel. Fix how you treat your students. This is a horrible school, have been told multiple times about racist staff, creepy staff, and very rude and insensitive staff. And by staff I mean teachers.
Flake
Personally think this school is horrible with the way students are treated in regards to fights or problems, i almost got suspended due to me telling someone to keep their distance. overall I think it's a horrible place but that's also due to favouritism of public perception rather than the conditions of students
This school is horrible.
This school doesn’t do anything with bullying although it goes through student councils etc. I have been trying to move class since last term most students are horrible. This school also has a horrible vaping and drug tolerance most people in the grades vape. Most of the students treat anyone with interests also lower then them and won’t accept anyone unique as a person with emotions.
READ.
I'm currently in year 10, been here since year 7 and the bullying is honestly a joke at this point. Majority of the teachers only do something if you defend yourself or your parent gets involved. A lot of the teachers will choose favourites based on both your academic and the colour of your skin. It's wrong. A lot of the students there only want to fight and cause drama.
Personally I would not recommend this school unless you're a great dancer or you play rugby(boys only) but even with the rugby program, more than half of them have moved to Ipswich, maple and Marsden bc the rugby program is better for them.
Again wouldn't recommend this school at all.

I physically attend the school on a weekly basis
The school is very unfair toward people of colour.teachers scream at students on a daily basis, both during class times and during break times. I would personally not recommend it.
never.
never go here. it will leave you feeling no self worth. student got a 2 week suspension for asking another student not to hurt their friend.
DONT GO
horrible so not go you will be depressed
Flake
The bullying at the school is discusting and the only time the school will do something, is when you react or a parent gets involved.
The fights are stupid.
There has been multiple snakes in the school as well.
I'm currently in year 10 and been there since year 7, I wouldn't recommend this school uncles your child is great at rugby (boys only) or dance
