"TRASH SCHOOL I was forced to come because of my parents and wish I never did I begged to not go but there I was first day of school. I WAS BULLIED AND I EVEN WAS PUCNHED ON MY FIRST DAY. Like you think girls are kind. I've moved school after a year of suffering and honestly the boys don't seem to care they don't bully the girls are the bullies PLEASE DON'T SEND YOUR DAUGHTER TO THIS HELL If they don't want to don't force them they'll be miserable"
"Severely underfunded, no one to blame however worrying when buildings need renovations. Investing in the wrong areas such as louvered windows, double railings and doors for hallways that have neither heating nor air conditioning therefore completely redundant. Cleaning is done only once in a while. Self-explanatory. Understaffed, unable to support students AND teachers. On multiple occasions teachers are brought back from retirement. Some teachers are trying their hardest however if they don't know the content how can they teach it? Priorities are scuffed, lack of concern when it comes to microaggressions towards people of color from peers and teachers. On multiple occasions students of ethnic backgrounds are targeted for things that go unnoticed when from those of Anglo-Saxon backgrounds. Bias towards subjects, students who study French were given the opportunity to visit abroad but students who study Japanese are neglected and requests from them are always "pending". School does not value feedback as it does not concern itself with it in the first place. However, standing against bullying amongst students is a strong notion the school enforces. Can only defend the school with it could be worse. The neighborhood is safe. School is small but alright."
"Its alright, but has a lot of improvement to go, the rules are outdated, the uniform is...ew. There is no contact with the community. The teachers don't care about your learning."
"As far as I know there isn’t a lot of bullying going on in the school, I have a lot of friends at school and everybody seems to almost get along, most of the teachers are really nice and we welcome new students really well"
"Excellent school! My daughter studied in this school from yr7-12. Most teachers especially vce teachers were great. They had good positive relationships with the students. They were excellent in teaching when my daughter was studying there over 6 years. She received 6 medical schools offers after she graduated from Canterbury Girls Secondary College."
