Hi, as a former student leader from this school, I would not recommend going to this school. Most of these teachers often are strict in a way which is overexcessive. A few years back when I was in this school, I have experienced being yelled and told to quiet down during a sporting event where I was cheering for another team although they had encouraged us to do sportsmanship and cheer for other people.
Although some of these teachers are chill and friendly, most of these types of teachers are already beginning to retire or are either starting to becoming rare to find in this school.
I have held and hosted and helped out with multiple events just to get nothing at the prizegivings. These prizegivings are biased and are only awarded to students who are favourited for no reason at all.
If you literally want your kid to grow up and take on opportunities, do NOT send them to this school. I promise you, the 6 years of going to this school was not worth it and I was barely educated here.
Clearview was a decent school. It created a safe environment with little to no bullying, and was amazing at teaching us time management skills and independent study. Was a great gateway to the local high school, Rolleston College, as they frequently communicated about key skills they believe will help us succeed in NCEA. Nicely balanced fun times with learning times.
As a former student, the school didn’t allow much, as well as most of the staff there look down their noses at you like they own the world. It is disappointing that I didn’t enjoy being at school. The education at Clearview is very poorly and you don’t learn as much as you should. Also, a lot of teachers favourite certain children, like the popular children.
Honestly horrible. As a former student, there is almost no space compared to more open environment schools that have more space in an out of the classrooms. Mixed year levels which is a bit strange but its whatever
Clearview Primary is the most amazing school, from the principal down it is just incredible they do everything they can for their students and even families and in our experience when our oldest son was bullied they sorted it so fast the two older boys stayed away from him from that moment!
The teacher truly care and listen or let you know whatever you need to know.
There are so many opportunities for our children and all of them take so much extra planning time but the teacher care enough to make things happen.
The teacher aides are total class too ❤️
