Al-Madinah School

believe there are several areas in which the school could improve to better support its students and provide a higher-quality educational experience.

The range of academic subjects, extracurricular activities, and sports opportunities is limited compared to many other schools, reducing opportunities for students to explore their interests and develop their skills.

Many students feel that their opinions are heard but not always taken seriously or acted upon. Student leadership roles, such as prefect positions, focus largely on supervision duties and rosters rather than meaningful student representation or involvement in school decisions.

Some students have also raised concerns about favouritism within the school, particularly regarding opportunities, expectations, and the treatment of different groups of students. Female students, in particular, may feel that boys are sometimes given greater consideration or access to opportunities.

There is also concern regarding the school's approach to gender segregation. While segregation is presented as an important part of the school's environment, students often have regular visibility and interaction with the opposite gender in shared areas and during daily school activities. This has led some students to feel that the school's practices do not always align with its stated expectations and values.

Bullying and inappropriate behaviour remain concerns, with some students feeling that incidents are not always addressed effectively or consistently. Greater emphasis on respectful conduct and student wellbeing would help create a safer environment.

Concerns have also been raised regarding counselling services, including confidentiality, communication, and students being removed from class without prior notice, resulting in missed learning time.

Limited staffing places significant pressure on teachers and may affect the support available to students. Some school rules are viewed as overly restrictive in minor matters, while more significant student welfare concerns receive less attention.

As a private school, families may reasonably expect broader opportunities, stronger student support systems, greater fairness, and increased transparency. These concerns are shared in the hope of encouraging constructive improvements that will benefit both current and future students.

Additional concerns include student wellbeing, fairness, and inclusion. Healthy eating is important for student growth, yet there are limited healthy food options available. Some uniform expectations, such as keeping a white hijab perfectly clean throughout the school day, can feel unrealistic.

Students have also raised concerns about how bullying and physical incidents are handled, particularly among younger students. Simple apologies are not always enough, and repeated behaviour should be addressed more effectively.

There are concerns about favouritism and cultural inclusion, with some students feeling that certain cultures receive more recognition than others. Students who are new to the school environment may also benefit from greater patience, understanding, and support from staff.

Understand that these are honest reviews that are consistently relatable among students and to take this comment as a reflection upon practice.

As-salamu alaykum, to begin lets start with the school being racist, they are 100 percent biased to Fijians, anyone related with the principle is always favored and in the school a lot of people are related with each other, they will always give Fiji examples and some kids will swear at you in the language, matter fact i've had teachers swear at me in the language, they also pressure, manipulate, sugarcoat and gaslight you.

Another thing is your learning experience all depends on your teacher like i had a good math teacher but she was my homeroom teacher and than i had a teacher didn't even understand teach maths, some teachers will go in 2x speed and when u ask them to slow down they act like your dumb.

The ironic thing is that the school is so proud about "teaching islamic values" is that most of the students aren't good e.g i have people who i know that are gay, lesbian, pansexual, trans, bisexual and etc and that is the result of separating the genders now im not saying that we shouldn't separate boys and girls but the way this school does it is ew, they swear curse and its quite normal for the students to be in relationships, some vape and smoke in the school bathroom i know two students who has had sex already at 14-15-16 years old.

I've been popular and man it is bad it kinda sucks you into a lot of bad stuff i dont wanna add but ive been harassed before so many times, by younger kids but all they get is to be put on the bench when they physically assaulted me or when my classmates of the same gender touched me inappropriately, ive been called swear words such as the s word and the w word and the h word.

everyone here is disgusting. and i bet you all the good comments are either bots or written by the people that work at the school to get good reviews.

I attended and graduated from this school, and honestly, my experience was extremely negative. I felt that the quality of education was poor, student behaviour was badly managed, and the school leadership lacked professionalism and fairness.

As someone who was not Fiji-Indian, I often felt excluded and treated differently, which made the environment feel unwelcoming and biased.

The school culture was also terrible. Vaping was extremely common among students, and there was constant peer pressure from certain groups of students to get involved in things that I personally felt were wrong and unhealthy. Instead of feeling supported or encouraged to succeed, it often felt like students were pushed toward bad behaviour and negative influences.

Another major issue was the teaching staff. Many of the genuinely good and caring teachers eventually left, and only a few decent ones remain. Meanwhile, some teachers who honestly should have retired years ago are still teaching despite seeming completely out of touch and unable to properly manage or engage students.

The new assistant principals also made the environment worse in my opinion, with poor leadership and little understanding of what students were actually dealing with. It also felt like management positions were heavily influenced by personal and family connections rather than merit, which made the school leadership feel unfair and unprofessional.

There were very few meaningful student activities, and the so-called “play gym” was basically just dirt and fencing, which felt unacceptable considering how much money the school reportedly raises. The school’s reputation became so poor that Google reviews were reportedly disabled or removed, which honestly says a lot by itself.

I left feeling like my education and opportunities were negatively affected by my time there. Based on my personal experience, I would not recommend this school.


On the day of Judgement I will not spare a single staff here.

it is a really good school and there is lots of respect and no bullying
we learn many good things
