| Reviews | | By Student - 27 Sep 2023, Rate: bad | | I just graduated from this school and it was the worst experience ever. Cant wait to leave this hellhole far behind. Every recount of it is miserable, due to the teachers and students alike. | | | By Student - 01 Jun 2023, Rate: bad | | i am a student at birrong girls and honestly this is the worst school ever the teachers treat you like your an object and they just don’t help you. if you ask for help they call you dumb and if you get below 30% on a test you get a letter of concern sent home and the principal is the most disgusting person ever i honestly hate this school and we need a new principal if your a parent reading this DO NOT put your daughter here she will come home crying to you asking you to move her and the rules are even worse if you don’t have the right socks they give you suspended if you don’t tuck in your scarf you get suspended and if you let your hair out you get suspended and also if you forget to bring your PE clothes you get detention and i don’t even wanna get started on the canteen ladies they are beyond disrespectful like once i was buying food and when i was getting my change back she chucked it at me and i had to lean to the floor and get it and if you get something in your order wrong they scream at you like honestly this is disgusting and it’s killing us girls like we go home crying and our parents don’t even believe us, and i don’t even wanna get started about the deputies they are so rude don’t believe you and this school only gives us 2 minutes to get to class and this is a very big school and if your late and you don’t have a late slip they give you detentions and also they do not let you take out your phone for any reason whatsoever and even on recess and lunch and if they catch you on it it gets taken away from you for the night not even your parent can come pick it up, but anyway if you are a parent DO NOT send you daughter to this school i guarantee you, you will find way better schools then this for your daughter. | | | By Student - 27 May 2023, Rate: poor | This is an honest review for parent looking to take their daughters to birrong girls high school(I will try and be as objective as possible)
I was a past student at birrong girls high school.I graduated in 2021 and can say that the transition from the old principal to the current principal was extremely disappointing to see.I don’t believe Mrs Dabaja is intentionally trying to hurt her students but she has created a hostile environment by forcing student to eg.wear crew length white socks ,students are forced to pull their pants up to show that they are complying if they are not they are sent to the principals office to be scolded,Mobile phones are banned,nail extensions or polish are banned,makeup ,down to mascara is banned.There are other schools who have simalar rules )usually private schools) but what makes birrong girls different is that teachers are told in meetings to actively search for these ‘rule breaks’.Many teachers speak badly about the principal with their students as they too don’t want to be performing such juvenile activities and get their students in trouble because their "socks aren’t high enough "under their pants.As the years have gone I unfortunately have to hear from my younger sister how much more it’s gotten worse ,students who wear pants are not allowed to wear any leggings underneath except navy blue stockings and students can not wear tshirts ,skivies etc under their shirts and jumpers “ winter cold” is not an exception.I also believe that it is a new rule for students who wear a headscarf must completely tuck it in and students hairs MUST be tied back.These rules are not under any circumstance treated lightly ,students are sent to offices yelled at,detentions & suspensions if they fail to comply.Mostly by teachers who do not want to do this but have to .I have also been informed that Year 11 &12 are not permitted to use laptops which further disadvantages these students who not all but many coming from 1st generation families in Australia and need as much school assistance as possible.I understand these rules are not executively made by Mrs Dabaja but they did not exist before she became principal at birrong girls high school she has stripped her students of individuality and school spirit.Many other reviews stating she deserved to be harmed are wrong and unlawful but Mrs Dabaja sticks out like a sore thumb in birrong girls high school she is simply unpleasant unlike the deputies Mrs George and Mrs Andrews who are also strict but is visible they have the students best interest in heart.I understand I may have not been quite objective in this review but it is upsetting to see my younger sibling have anxiety to got to school .I do not want to end this on a negative note other reviews state that the teachers are all awful ,yes some are flawed but overall I hadn’t had such a bad experiences and some great teachers like Mr Clark ,Mrs Tariq,Mrs Zomaya,Mrs Wright(An angel), Mr thanos, Mrs Anthony,Mrs winchcombe ,Mr atteya ,Mrs subramanium those are just on the top of my head.These are genuinely Great teachers I’ve that had helped me get through high school.So parents who are looking to take their daughters to birrong girls please heed to my advise ps.if I could take my sister out of this school I would.
