I am a year 9 and Glendowie College and I have never felt so happy. All of the prefects are so kind and nurturing to all the year 9s and we all developed connections to all these older kids in year 13 that we can look up to. When I joined for the whole of term 1 every Thursday before assembly our prefects (peer support) would come to our form and teach us a lesson, hangout with us and answer any of our questions.
Personally I have not have any bad teachers at all. All of them have been really great and I feel like we have a pretty great education here!
Only downside is sometimes the vaping in the bathroom but to be fair that happens at any high school you go to.
Overall its a great school!
Apart from the occasional racist or annoying teacher, Glendowie is a pretty good teacher. I like it a lot and since coming here I have made a bunch of new friends and I know that I won't have a single lonely day. Everyone (including the teachers) here is a bit weird but that means you get to be weird too.
Really bad school, the teachers don't care about your children and my kids come home telling me about how the principal tried to "lay hands on them". This is unacceptable
There is only one word I can use to describe this place. HELL. Never have I experienced a location to have such an overbearing, joy-sapping effect on me. Wouldn't wish a day in this place on my worst enemy.
*********** I had was absolutely horrible and didn’t teach me anything as was too busy with other job, just gave us sheets which were as easy as the work I got in year 1. The bathrooms are packed and a lovely smell of different flavours every day. School is pretty bad and needs a whole upgrade which they’ve just done to science block. Everything is old and broken now. They more care about your uniform than being away for a month and banned phones which makes students have to go to the bathrooms to check there phone and then the*******s come in and accuse them of vaping and make the student nervous and anxious to ever go in to the bathroom to do something the human body does.
Glendowie is a pretty good school, however the teaching isn’t all great, some of the science teachers I’ve had haven’t been very good and haven’t learnt as much. Some math teachers haven’t taught me anything at all.
Honestly its the certificate and everything racist teachers one nearly broke my charger when I was in year 10 students caps in bathrooms 24/7 think they are so cool unsafe experience during morning tea and lunch only choice is to go during class which is not allowed
