So much needs to improve I don't know where to start.
This school is very slack compared to others. The Principal went AWOL when the school needed the staff and support more than ever. Not that she did anything to begin with. The good students that work hard never get the credit they deserve. If you are a smart student, the teachers ignore your efforts except the English Department. Some teachers are bias and one of the head teachers is aggressive. He has a chip on his shoulder and a 'God complex'. Parents get talked down to. I would never send my child to this school if there were other options. The students senior skirts are way too short and too much makeup allowed especially on students that are meant to represent the school the most (leadership roles). Too many kids aren't in correct school uniform. Teachers arrive late to class and many times make mistakes on marking tests that have to later be adjusted. PLEASE do better as there aren't many options in Young. Take more pride in the school and students.

Don’t go here
This school is crap police are always here people get bullied everyday and teaches don’t even car about the phone pouches anymore so there useless
I hate you
Whoever thought of the phone pouches should kill themselves. It literally broke my phone's camera and I didn't even bang on it or try to open it.
This School is absolutely terrible
The school is terrible. Constant bullying and nothing done about, the police are there every single day, old equipment my son burnt his hand on the old science equipment, Teachers are just rude, Deputies and Principle on seem to care about punishment and not fixing the issue at hand. I would never send ANYONE to this school! not to mention the stabbing that occurred because of unresolved bullying that also made it to the news!
Bad School
I experienced extreme bullying at Young High School. And the teachers did nothing about it. The teachers blamed the victim. One of the deputies said to my mum that I shouldn’t be on isolation but if she took me off it would make her look bad, obviously she said it in more professional words but you get the gist. I highly don’t recommend this school
Young High is the worst school
I personally would not ever send my children there. My experience was so bad by the end the end of year 9 I had to quit and start going somewhere else. The kids are horrible and cruel to each other. The teachers don't care about mental health, so long as they get paid.
Phone pouches = are NOT helping with learning.
Sorry, I don't like it. They brought those horrible phone pouches in, and now my child is unable to contact me. I understand that I can call the office, to talk to my daughter, but if the school is trying to teach my daughter independence, why is it making her rely on the office to talk to her own mother? That seems awfully counterproductive, and it isn't going to help with anything. Aren't the students going to find ways around the rule regardless? I've seen some of the students open the pouches without the magnet locking system, and i believe the design is flawed, and it won't last long, that's for sure. People will realise eventually.

I don't think anyone is happy in this school.
Younger kids feel intimidated and the teachers don't care unless you play sport. I hated my time at this school. Makes me sad for everyone stuck there. You find miore and more parents shaking their heads at Young high schools decisions.
