    Big bully school

    The bully culture at this school is perpetuated by the current Principal, Simon Lamb. Students regularly bully other students, and such incidents are concealed from the public and staff by principal and the school management team Furthermore, the school itself fosters a toxic and hostile working environment. Workplace bullying is prevalent, with staff divided into groups. Those loyal to leadership are given benefits, while these favored groups collectively target and bully colleagues who are no...

    King’s College Auckland MZ Bullying continues

    King’s College in Auckland Nee Zealand is not fit to be a boarding school. Don’t let the facilities away you. Bullying is alive and well in the living quarters and the staff do not pay attention to catch it. When a complaint is made the school prefer to take a very long time investigating the complaint and favour the bully over the victim. The aim is for the victim to leave the school so that the school does not have to deal with the bully or add to the student discipline statistics collected b...

    Great academics, bad bullying

    Do not go here if you’re leftist, alternative (punk, goth, emo, etc), and don’t fit the prep or athlete mould. I am a girl and I was bullied for liking rock music and not being “boy crazy”, and for supporting gay rights! I will say the teachers and academics were fantastic though, really great classrooms too.

    Poor _ must improve

    My son goes here. Teaching competency is decidedly mixed so i pay for outside maths tutoring. Some teachers are great but others are sub-standard.There is still a lot of bullying. My son's head was slammed into a gate the other night by a senior boy. School counselling is a complete shambles- like amateur night in Dixie. Head of counselling who was fabulous - up and left without notice. I guess in frustration. My sons house master never responds to my emails, so it's unsurprisingly when that tone is set from the top. Think twice about spending your money here.

    great school loved it

    Great school, has a really good house environment that makes you feel at home, some teachers are amazing and others aren't. Extremely high uniform standards which was annoying at times.
