Dad sent me here thinking it was a good school. Let me tell you, it was the worst years of my life. I left nearly 7 years ago, and have never and will never look back. It is terrible for bullying. I was bullied on a daily basis by students and teachers. Because I was quiet and wouldn't stand up for myself. It's disgusting, honestly. I didn't want to be there, I'd do anything to get out of classes. There were 2 teachers there I felt comfortable with, my business teacher Mr Lowe, one of the rare ones that were nice to me and made me feel comfortable. And Mr O'Grady in PSC, them, I really liked. There are a few other teachers that were ok and pleasant to me. But most of them I hated. And I'm not a hateful person. I was publicly humiliated by them. I was ignored by them..one time I sat in a maths lesson crying with the entire room openly talking about me, calling me names, taking the mick. Barring 3 ppl maybe. Did the teacher step in? No. And btw these weren't whispers, they were talking louder than average. The whole room. Baring in mind, I had no friends in this lesson so the fact I was so singled out, was awful for me and it's affected my life so much. Maths was the worst for me, it affected my education so I'm terrible at maths now (which in yr7 was my favourite lesson) I suffer from social anxiety\/phobia because of what the people did to me there, I couldn't go to college because of it. I can't work. I have no friends because I struggle with people, school has honestly destroyed me. I would not recommend it to anyone. The list goes on about the nasty things that went on in that school and it still upsets and bothers me, now at age 22.\nIf anyone's to ask me about this hell hole, I'll tell you not to go there, not to send your children there.\nI mean, hopefully it's changed now.. but I spent the worst years of my life there so I'll always have a negative review about it.
