Most honest review you need to read

hi im a fellow student at Ormiston Junior College and im writing this as a genuine concern about a certain teacher in Manu. This teacher has had SO MANY complaints made about her that it baffles me she still has her job. I know of a certain student who had to switch their MAC due to her forced involvement and prying into the kids personal dating life. Recently I was made aware that this teacher did the exact same thing again to another student and I feel this had to be written. A boy in this teachers MAC had recently started a relationship with another girl in another MAC and the teacher pulled the two aside and had a “heart to heart” with them about their relationship saying things like, “you shouldn’t be dating without your parents knowing” and “you two look cute together but I can’t approve”. This manipulative behaviour is genuinely SO inappropriate in a school setting and her inability to mind her business gets to a certain level of creepy. It is genuinely insane how this hasn’t been discussed or handled earlier. Another point is how rude she is to her students. She’s constantly raising her voice at students for no valid reason and MULTIPLE students have made complaints about her and she still hasn’t changed her attitude. I hate to complain about others like this but I’ve had to say this for so long now and I hope this is brought to light.

junior college (year 7-10)

the only review you need about this school.

this school is horrid. as a student who tries not to care about their education, this school's system scares me. wagging and vaping are the only 2 things this school is known for. it's so easy to wag here it's so concerning. teachers have been "working" on this for 6 years. there is no extra curriculum, no science, no food tech, no nothing except for literacy and numeracy. The principle is a real pain in the arse. He yaps at every assembly yet if you were to talk to him yourself he a real rude one. school uniform means nothing here either. hair out down messy left right no one cares. girls roll their skirts till its half way up their arse. not to mention the lack of diversity. it it literally just a bunch of ching chongs and indians. its just a game of "who can be the coolest". Students are usually welcoming but no one really cares about you. there are almost 2000 students and this school is so small we are taking over and using classes from the next door primary. this school isnt high on sports either. volleyball and football thats it. the year system here makes it no better. this school goes to year 7-10 which sucks because believe it or not year 7's literal 12 year olds look like they are 18. im real scared for this school and like i said as a student who before wasnt too worried on education im also scared for my future.
