    ts is a private school wannabe read carefully and fix this.

    First off: and i will keep these short with little explanation cuz i'm drained after in this 2 hour assembly at school. The teachers care more if you get caught lacking in maths, english or even a little behind in work than if you are actively bullying someone. And the teachers are rude, sexist and they pick favourites like the teachers gossip about their own students to other teachers which just makes the school feel uncomfortable + the teachers walk around trying to listen to students conversa...

    WOrst school ever

    I swear this was the worst school I have ever been to all the teachers are so rude, and they think they are all on top of all of us. Teachers there all have bad manners, and they won't even let us have free will anytime during school hours. They lecture us about things that don't even make sense, and one of the relievers there wouldn't even let me drink water when I clearly told her I was thirsty. This school has to be one of the worst. When I finally got out this school, it felt like being free...

    poor staff and greed

    I don't think this school is worth visiting and this report isn't worth spending much time on. The staff there treats the students very poorly they say they don't care their only here because of the Prime Minister and only because their following the rules. This shows negligence and disrespect towards the students. The food there are overpriced and they are consistently asking for money like in the knowledge-a-thon or the kiwi-a-thon.

    The poor treatment towards the students

    The teaches there don't care about the students, some are strict to the point where you can do nothing. My child came back from school crying saying this was the worst day she had. She described it to me in great detail, things such as the class was dead silent the teacher picked on her for no reason and she tried to give suggestions but the teacher said it was talking back. The teacher also hated the school she said "if you're wanting me to quit you're succeeding" the children are there to learn not hear life stories and complaints from the teacher she also mentioned that it didn't matter if you were a good student or a bad student both got yelled at I didn't believe her at first since kids tend to overexaggerate but her friends from the same class confirmed the situation. Overall my child said she hated this school and will never want to come back. Also she said it was Ms Bedhesi who did all these things I wish to have her fired. Sincerely- an anonymous sender

    Ehh... average school

    Average school. I love my teacher he is very nice to us all unless the students in my class are absolute assh*les, otherwise, he is very nice. The only thing i have to complain about is the canteen food prices. 1 cup noodle for $4. You could go to a random supermarket and buy 1 cup noodle for less than a dollar. As well as that, the slushie there is absolutely costly. You need to pay $6 to fill a reusable cup and the cup costs $4 dollars. My god if that wasn't expensive, I'd beg m parents to let me buy one every day. The extension classes are all run by 1 teacher, like maths and writing, but she is really nice. There are more good teachers in the school except for Mrs. Alps. She gave me a red card detention just because I couldn't hear her say anything. Horrible, otherwise, there are still great especially Mr. Lee, thanks for teaching me in year 8!

    WATCH OUT ALMOST EVERYTHING IS BAD

    VERY BAD SCHOOL the curriculum is terible very all extension classes are run by one teacher (She's Not Bad) absolutly no care for academic excellence whole years go by and the time spent on academic mentions hovers Around 2 hours (thats about one whole assembly and there are dozens in a year) students get shamed for not being good at sports and acamdemic oppertunities are not there. Teachers Think they are better then students (Not all) when on duty they walk around constantly trying to listen to student conversations. When students get in trouble for absolutely no reason, they will often take sides with different students. Even teachers can be racist, biased, and even sexist to students. When giving out punishment they make as big of a deal as possible. The few good teachers left here are great but chances are your child won't get them. DO NOT RECOMEND THIS RUBISH SCHOOL

    To some teachers in Somerville Intermediate

    Teachers in Somerville Intermediate are so rude and think they are better than the students. They are also very dramatic when giving out red cards. A student got a red card for feeding the ducks. Teachers also pick on students, and some teachers on duty go around, walking slowly and trying to listen to other students' conversations. When students get in trouble for absolutely no reason, they will often take sides with different students. Even teachers can be racist, biased, and even sexist to st...
