This school is horrible, there has been many many many different times where teachers have sent other students out for no reason. they take no responsibility with the school toilets. It is horrific in there.
People vape in there too.
the school fails to meet basic necessitates like hand wash and toilet paper then blame the students for ripping the stuff off the walls then refuses to replace the hand basins if they have broken.
KVC is not a great school. They do nothing about bullying, vaping, and threatening, ETC. Please take your child somewhere else but here. This school is a living hell, and the teachers and white students are racist to the black people, letting white students call black students the n-word, and teachers being rude, calling black students a monkey just because monkeys and black students are the same colour. I think that this school should be closed down because there are a lot of fights and arguments that occur here. Please help us at this school. Plus, the teachers don't even teach properly, they teach the way they think is the right way, but it's never is. The school lunches are also disgusting and have no taste or flavor. It gave my cousin food poisoning, and she didn't come to school for 3 weeks or more. Please go somewhere else.
There such be an option to do zero stars because this school SUCKS! My cousin who attends this school nearly got jumped. All because the teachers couldn’t do their job and educate students on how to love each other rather than hate. My other cousin ended up passing away because of one of YOUR students. What kind of school allows that to happen. The food is also so bad, people I know that have gone there have gotten food poising! Are you trying to kill these kids!! Also let’s talk about the RACISM that happens at this horrible school. The N-word is being used, specifically by students. Are you guys teaching them racism?!? Students AND TEACHERS are also THREATENING others ESPECIALLY to NON WHITE STUDENTS!? Why are you teaching your students to become bad people?! Where is the peace and love?????????? I AM NOT THRILLED ABOUT THIS. The principal should also go back to school, because I don’t know why you think you’re doing a good job but you’re really not. I have no clue who taught you but they need to be sent to mars or something because this isn’t how you should be acting on earth. Get lost you aliens of teachers. #studentsdeservebetter!!!! #blacklivesmatter #thisschoolstinks #learnhowtoteach
hi I'm a student at kvc 2025 and I was looking at all the review the toilet are bad the new pricepla is bad and it like the teacher are bind there soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many kids vaping it like a vape club at are school but the teacher are good I'm dumb and they help me alot
I used to go to kvc absolute shit hole I was bullied and beaten up by everyon and the teachers are so bad they don't care about your mental health they also don't appreciate LGBTQ students I have friends their and I feel so bad for them. They dont call your parents if your sick or badly hurt and they don't let you express yourself you cant have coloured hair or painted nails or any of that shit. I was even bullied but the teachers told i was stupid and in year 9 to go back to year 2 by my maths teachers I absolutely hated that school and DO NOT RECOMMEND SENDING YOUR KIDS HERE unless you want them to have a bad education and anxiety, depression and server mental health issues don't send your kids here for there own good and yours
I'm only into the second year but it's been really good so far, the teachers are pretty nice and only get mean and pissy if it's the students fault. The bathrooms are still pretty bad as usual and they had to remove the damn mirror in the jr block bathrooms (I forgot the block letter) but it's been good overall
Disregard for mental health, racism and homophobia, students have bought weapons onto premises on multiple occasions, though some staff members may be nice, there are also many that make this school even worse, save yourself the trouble.
fuck this shitty school I go here and have been told multiple times that I cant hangout with younger or older kids then me even tho I have a friend group that has people a year older maybe even 2 years and they don't do shit about bullying and the teachers are absolutely fucking amazing like I love being called a kindergartener and a baby it makes me feel so welcomed its always a plus :D I love how I was reading a question out loud to understand it and got told by that shrek looking motherfucker Dr Mathhews I wasn't allowed to talk and when I tried to explain that I was just reading it out loud to understand it I got told to "GET OUT OF MY CLASS ROOM" then got called a brat makes me feel real welcomed go fuck yourself
This school is grand, absolutely nothing to complain about, just kidding the Māori class always smells like cat meat or fish or something that’s rank. If you come here, DO NOT Sign up for Māori.
My 12 year old son has ODD has behaviour Issues he has been kicked out of this school last year but was referred back to kaikorai valley college, he had so many support people involved to help we all had a plan in place. This was not followed and my 12 year old only a week ago was stood down over a teacher aid that was for my son but would call my son nasty names. First day back and only a hour into school I was called to pick him up and not to come back till the meeting. We seen the principal and damian who have now put my son against the board when what they done is there fault they did not follow his plan. That principal is nasty and I'm glad he is leaving. They don't ring you and tell you what has gone on to. This school sets child up to fail in my eyes and they just wanted him gone. Well I have removed my son from that shit school and I wouldn't send any of your kids there if they have behaviour issues. Kids a bullied all the time there. Principal is nasty and talks rude. It's his way no matter what you say. Please careful sending your child here please.......
this school is not a way to put your child in a great education . this school does nothing about bullying , harrasment , EVERYTHING . teachers are rude disrespectful and completely insane . do not send your child here unless you want them to get severe depression and anxiety of the way they treat students . do the right thing !
It is THE worst high school in Dunedin, The toilets are rancid, the teachers, most of them are old pieces of crap, but some of their new teachers are more appreciative.
blatantly racist language used by the teachers, nothing is taken care of as there is a hole in the boys toilets, obvious favoritism and sexist teachers who treat you like shit yet preach the opposite of what they do 0/10
They only pay attention to the really smart kids and give zero care about you unless you got an award and the school lunches are half raw someone got food poisoning last week from a half cooked burger i get it's free but jeez and half of the teachers find something to joke about you the only good teacher in my eyes is the music teacher.I have even seen a student with a disability been hit by one of the teachers that teach in the braithwaite center for yelling and he cant help it he barely says anything now.And the black mold and clogged urinals and toilets is appalling you can barely use a toilet anyways because half of them are locked.Half of the students are depressed and snap on teachers or bullies which is terrible.Rick geerlofs your a trash principal.
Ah yes, All students enjoy the black mood in every corner and the bathrooms that were LOCKED for all student use 24/7 for a while. They watched me almost die and laughed at my mother for wanting the teacher to get his non existent teaching license suspended. Teachers are rude, Racist and Homophobic. They are highly sexist and they don’t care for students well-being. Almost all kids at this school are depressed and this school is SO good with bullying. Unless your the receiver of the bullying. Worst school in dunedin. Don’t send your kids here
This school does not cater kids with mental health struggles. They expect every kid to be performing at top capacity whilst most of them are mentally drained and a high amount of students are depressed. This school sucked the life out of my children and I can’t say I would recommend.
A school that loves to seperate and have a bias towards the smart children and never hear anyone else out. Also a very corrupt school where they let money and your social status influence the way situations are dealt with just to add a new tv in the staff room. They also have neglect and don’t care when it comes to the students mental health, and barely take a stand towards bullying but uses the term very loosely in silly situations. Speaking of situations they poorly handle them, again especially towards the students they are bias to. The only good thing is that some of the teachers are nice and agree with what ive said. don’t. come. here.
absolutely amazing school! they LOVE to help us with our mental health! they 100% care about whether you have been hurt!!❤️❤️❤️the delicious smell of 5 year old vomit in every single bathroom really takes a kick! 10/10 amazing school!! they handle bullying SOOOO well!!!! no one gets called a f*g at all❤️❤️ KVC also is VERY accepting of transgender students and when you come out to the guidance counsellor, she 100% doesn’t use your deadname❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
all of this was sarcasm😘😘😘😘

most teachers are racist, transphobic, homophobic and ableist 🥰 the school doesn’t give a damn about any bullying and manages mental health issues badly. inclusivity is a topic they LOVE to not talk about. there’s only two gender neutral bathrooms at the school, both in really inconvenient places 1000/10 😊
