Wilford is BAD
BULLIES And SOME teachers are always shouting and old principal was a pervert. some teachers and office workers were great like Donna and Linda . as well as Ailsa and Whaea Ropene, But most of them are gone now. They shout at kids and apparently locked an autistic kid in a cage because he was biting people. The new principal doesn't listen to the children and spends money on things they don't need. put your kid there is you want. but there is a chance of a BAD time.

this place ruined my childhood and mental health
asbestos. teachers that bullied me since i was five. classmates were uncontrollable and horrific to everyone. black mold. no funding. so many anti-vax teachers. also racist teachers. principle was a bit of a pedo who slept with parents and made the mums uncomfortable . went for eight long, long, years, woke up everyday in dread and a cold sweat counted the minutes down on the clock till 3. also mice. and rats. My friends and i were bullied EVERY SINGLE DAY and school refused to do anything about, there were a FEW, like a couple, good teachers, but the rest bullied me for their power trips and insecure self-worth. this school gave me: suicidal thoughts, multiple eating disorders, depression, anxiety, social anxiety, body dysmorphia, obsessive harmful tendencies, panic attacks, cold sweats, a constant freezing up when reminded of there, authority figure issues (to this day I'm still terrified and occasionally hostile of teachers and ANY form of authority) and SO MANY COCKROACHES.

I went to this school and would never recommend it. I didn't learn anything. I was bullied. I got jump and the teachers did nothing. I can't say much about the new principal but the old one looked down my friends bra. Also there was a petition to take him down. All down a terrible experience. They always had to fund stuff. There after-school care was terrible. I could write a whole eassy on what it was like going to the school. But I'm sure you don't want to here that.

Do not let your children go here
Teachers are bullies!!! There deputy principal is guilty of causing physical harm to multiple students. Including torturing a child who had a broken bone. I think this school should be shut down and all of the teachers investigated. The amount of stories and emotional scars they left on children in their care. No justice ever happened and these people are still allowed near children… get police involved!

School is not good one my daughters were bullied daily. My other daughter gets called names, ugly stupid students breaking her stuff. When approaching teachers every single time they say it was a miss understanding and it was a game and they didn't mean to. Which is all lies they suger coat everything the principle had affairs with some of the parents and my eldest daughter said he was creepy and that he would look at the older girls which made them uncomfortable. Students are not held accountable for thier behavior.
