The current head teacher run the school in an old traditional way which doesn\u00e2\u0080\u0099t keep up with the modern curriculum causing children who aren\u00e2\u0080\u0099t fast learners to lag back. The organisation of this school is chaotic. There is miscommunication between the teachers, due to this it has caused some well respected and good teachers to leave. I\u00e2\u0080\u0099ve spoken to one of the teachers and asked him\/her why they left and they just couldn\u00e2\u0080\u0099t handle the work environment.\n\nI may be coming out too harsh on this school, but I\u00e2\u0080\u0099m merely pointing out the key factors, which parents and students should know about before joining this school.","languageCode":"en"},"authorAttribution":{"displayName":"Kevin Grieff","uri":"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/contrib\/116540756119381125291\/reviews","photoUri":"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/a-\/AD_cMMS-BmsUAMhfDrL-R7qGjwSjtLPGB_5NOvAggYYQ-qKTNeQ=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo"},"publishTime":"2018-11-26T08:31:52Z"},{"relativePublishTimeDescription":"2 years ago","rating":5,"text":{"text":"My children attend\/attended the college and my wife and I, as well as parents we know\/knew, are extremely happy with the level of education and social skills acquired by children.\n\nYes, every parent has concerns, you wouldn't be a parent if you didn't, and yes, we voiced our concerns directly with school management and the trustees.
