I had a similar experience to another reviewer. My daughter attended the school from Prep to Year 7. First 4 years could not speak more highly of the school but from Year 4 things changed. Our daughter was the victim of bullying in Y4. It was so badly handled by the school, I have no words to describe what they put her through. Her experience belittled her and made her feel worthless. She hated herself and was sent to see the school therapist as an after thought . FYI the therapists are good but very hard to get an appointment with because they are so busy, which is a big ‘red’ flag. In Yr 6 it happened again. Same students this time reported by a teacher in an after school program. Outcome our daughter left the program because she was uncomfortable the bullies remained because they were not asked to leave even after their deplorable behaviour. No consequences was becoming a theme. We wanted to leave the school. Our daughter wanted to try 1 more year as she had been convinced Senior School would be better/different. It was worse! Once again same students and I was not the only parent complaining about said students. It feel on deaf ears. Year 7 co-ordinator was useless. Schools response was unacceptable yet again. There was a serious pattern emerging which was there are 1 set of rules for the well off parent’s daughters and 1 for the other parents daughters working hard to give their child what they thought was a better education. For the former there are no consequences, they don’t want lose the fees or the donations (which they ask for constantly EVEN after your child leaves the school as I found out) so their daughters become what one parent described as ‘protected species’. Half way through Yr 7 our daughter asked to leave. Even with the year COVID has thrown at us our daughter is in a much better space at her new school. Way better subject selection. SAC’s as I have come to find out is extremely limited and seems to be getting smaller. She is still seeing a therapist thanks to her time at SAC. One of her bullies is now a poster child for the school which leaves me speechless. The school is business first and a school second. Nothing will get in the way of them becoming bigger and better build, build, build is important, bad behaviour from students is not. My advice to parents is what you see is not what you get, look around your child can do better and so can you. My only regret not leaving sooner.
Please don't remove our reviews. Most people rate things according to their experience. Yes there are some nonsense reviews but you can tell when something is real or fake. Reviews are there to help people make decisions. You can't always expect to receive 5 stars, it has to be earned. I would also like to add that this school does not offer support in any way to students who have learning issues. My daughter basically struggled with her education and teachers at this school. They were indifferent, lazy and I basically had to fight for feedback and support. You can write what you want about the school on Instagram and praise it constantly. You are not an inclusive school like you claim to be. Parents be warned do not go through what I did. Pay the extra fees because you will receive better care and issues will be resolved. I started on a high and left with a child who doesn't believe she is worthy or smart enough. Life isn't just about achieving academically, it is about being the best you can be and everything will fall into place. We can't all be high achievers. You also need to sort out your bullying issues and expell repeat offenders. There was a bully in this school who constantly caused problems only to be told to finally leave after three years. Who allows that? I could go on and on and I know the school won't like this but it needs to be said. Why did you cut ties with Korowa? I know you will want to remove this review and you probably will. This is a warning to all prospective parents. Do your homework.
What an amazing school! Had an amazing time as a student and love going back as a member of the alumnae committee. The school is a very special place where you build lifelong friendships. I received incredible support from my teachers who ensure everything thrives academically, socially and emotionally. A community I am proud to be part of
DO NOT GO HERE i went here from prep to grade four I felt so sad and got bullied by the kids and the TEACHERS. I felt very sad about going to school everyday. The teachers favrioute students and make kids feel worthless.
