St John's College

At this school, students frequently experience racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexism, and overall harassment. The dress code is overly strict and discriminatory. For instance, students can receive detentions for minor infractions like wearing plain white socks without the SJC logo, having a necklace on, or being just one minute late to class after walking across the school from their locker. They even suggest giving up break time to avoid being late. I have witnessed a teacher discussing how "weird" transgender students are while a transgender student was present in our class. Slurs, including the N-word and the F-word, are used casually, and teachers often show favoritism. On a positive note, the tuckshop offers good food, and the facilities are nice.

A teacher failed my daughter over a decimal point that was there. He never taught properly and talked about his vegan girlfriend too much (they broke up 10 year before). A student sexually harassed her and got away with so much because he had adhd. It was an on going issue that had been reports so many times and he only stayed away when he got a year 7 pregnant when he was in year 9. nothing happened to him and still goes to the school. Teachers like to call out kids in the middle of class about bad work even if they have issue with their learning. They are always pushing for kids to do year 12 and do something for the school. The uniform policies are too much, I don't care if they have a necklace or two earrings on I care that my child is getting the education she deserves.

It's a school none the less. Push you to do year 12, said I didn't see my self going that way, they didn't want a bar if that ended up leaving as the culture their wasn't my thing Shithole...
