Teach simple road rules
Teach your students that when a road crossing says DONT WALK, that's exactly what that means! Also, they are a gobby rude bunch of young ladies you have attending there! What a rude looking bunch of misfits!

A school for the underdogs
I went to school here during 2020. Make no mistake, no school is perfect... but this school is a unique place in all aspects. For the students who really care, they will discover that teachers do care too. I personally was a student who fell very ill for a long time and despite the pressure in my abnormally ambitious grade, I found teachers who understood me. This is very important, there's enough trouble out there in the world, the school should be a place where a student can understand what li...

Alright
The school itself has a poor layout, but considering it’s heritage it is understandable. Mostly the environment is good however the leadership construction of the student team is poorly built. The school provides moderate toilet facilities. The teaching and in class aspect is good. Overall could be better.

Gosford High School Student Review
Ultimately, I believe that Gosford High School isn't all it's shaped up to be. There's a lot of prestige surrounding its name as a result of it being a selective school, however in reality this isn't the case. 1. The school's facilities are poor. There is no air conditioning or heating which means it gets quite cold in winter and very hot in summer. This makes it difficult to concentrate in class sometimes. Furthermore, there are no lockers. We are expected to carry a bag full of books, a lapt...

Good Environment and OK teachers
As a selective school I think the environment does provide benefits for those who want a focused environment. My sister goes to a nonselective high school and I recognise that people have different goals and ideas about school. On top of that, for the central coast the school does a great job of preparing you for the hsc compared to other schools. People typically think the work is overwhelming but it depends on your teachers and I think up until year 10 the work is really light and the increase is gradual. It makes it so that years 10,11 and 12 are manageable and quite enjoyable for students. Downside is that it is still a public school so you can’t expect the underpaid teachers to be amazing. If you are looking for babied guided teaching go to a grammar school if your looking for the environment I recommend Gosford.
