Disgusting Behaviour from KDC Teachers
Some of the teachers are quite strict and can be pretty racist. Like one time a CROWD of students left their bag outside the library during lunch and like there was this yard-duty teacher roaming around the library and she immediately pinpoints the blame onto the international ASIAN kids. When she said for the students to put their bags in theirs lockers, 90% of the people who had just stood up, left the library to put their bags in their lockers WEREN'T EVEN INTERNATIONAL. This teacher then loo...

horrid canteen
My school canteen is honestly terrible. The food is overpriced, tasteless, and often cold by the time you get it. The menu never changes, and half the items are sold out by lunch. The lines take forever, and even when you finally order, it’s usually something disappointing or soggy.

Teaching At KDC
After seeing a review from one of my students, I felt compelled to share my own experience as a teacher. I must address some critical issues that have made this role increasingly challenging. Over time, I have endured verbal abuse from students I am entrusted to teach. Sadly, this is not an isolated experience; I have also witnessed fellow educators being bullied and disrespected by students. This behavior is unacceptable and undermines the safe, supportive learning environment we strive to c...

Porn Obsessed Students and Careless Teachers
Back before I left this high school I saw pretty disturbing things especially in when I was in the younger years 8,9,10 and I’m sure most other students can relate. First off male students like to yell out sexual stuff in class some teachers just pretend they didn’t hear tho it makes some girls feel uncomfortable but other bully girls laugh. Boys in those levels make moaning sounds and act dirty in class when called upon or to get attention from teachers, I’ve seen multiple students either say sexually explicit and inappropriate comments about random female students of female teachers. Male teachers get cursed at constantly but some think it’s funny and choose to ignore it because they are favouring the popular bully girl and boy student gangs. Also in year 12 one of my friends said that the male teacher actually let students write in his computer that was projected to the whole class “Porn Hub” I was really disgusted tbh that the teacher didn’t even react at all and just let it slide. Don’t send your kids to this school it’s pretty sickening.

Bullying
In this dreary institution, lazy teachers loom large. It's clear that only the gifted or the "popular" kids bask in the fickle light of attention. The mean girls and naughty boys like my now bf Dion are favoured like twisted royalty, receiving undue assistance while others languish in obscurity. My brother Milo and his best friend Jack were forsaken, left to stumble in the abyss of failure. The teaching is quite meh as a year 11 student nothing special. Sometimes I want to die from boredom in chem and math. Bullying happens but my brother Milo escaped it his got good friends.

Teachers Turn a Blind Eye
Bullying is a huge problem at this school, and it feels like the teachers just don’t care. A lot of the VCE teachers seem really lazy—doing the bare minimum and complaining all the time. Bullying happens right in front of them, and they just look the other way. Plus, tons of kids vape in the bathrooms, and some even smoke weed, which makes it super uncomfortable to go in there. When it comes to teaching, they mostly just hand out textbooks and pre-made PowerPoints without really engaging with u...

Worst High School in Melbourne
Got bullied and despite teachers seeing it they didn't care, (not even the lazy well being councilor cared and she dismissed me) I was alienated up until year 12 no one wanted to even talk to me. No one even asked if I was okay despite bad attendance, The teachers only gave attention to the loud students, never the quite introverted students, classes are too full thus no individualized learning, the teachers are all lazy they just read off pre-made PowerPoints, so much violence in this high school witnessed 7 physical fights throughout my year 7-12 journey, also witnessed teachers getting name called numerously. Also lots of flirting and favoring between students and teachers not sure if this was meant to be playful though? Overall this high school made me want to die.

Red house the best.
I believe that Keilor Downs college is pretty good and is if not one of the best high schools in the area. Though some of the facilities are a bit outdated, it is not enough to be a worry. The school has variety of clubs and does not solely just emphasise the sport clubs, and some clubs have a specific areas or spaces which is nice. No school has a perfect collection of teachers but I believe that most of the teachers are good at what they do, and I personally won the lottery in that sense every year. There is a good community if you look at as a whole and there's no bullying among students; though I must note that some students act in a mob like behaviour, but they aren't a problem if you just ignore them as most of them are pretty chill. I highly recommend this school, but I'm biased.
