Reviews | By Parent - 27 Nov 2023, Rate: bad | I am a parent of 2 past students. Sending our sons to Padua is one of the very worst choices I've ever made. The male staff were a perfect example of toxic masculinity.It has taken many years for my sons to recover and themselves fully rejoin our family culture of kindness truth and love. Sadly one of my sons had ADHD and other needs that I consistently sought support for and was not given one iota of support. Challenging any teachers to pay attention to my sons needs was met with counter defensive attack. As we are a large family with four other siblings who flourished remarkably well I have no doubt Padua school was a big part of my sons estrangement from our family culture for a long while. Fortunately we are blessed with a loving God who always everywhere seeks to bring healing and restoration. | | By Alumnus - 21 Jun 2022, Rate: poor | I attended this school for three years. I found it to be a terrible school for boys who were neither academic nor sporty. In my opinion, the teachers were arrogant, unable to teach any other way other than mainstream, and when it came down to supporting boys who were different or of a minority group or LGBT, teachers and the senior staff made you feel like the problem. Sometimes, some of the teachers joined in or perpetuated the bullying perpetrated by some students. I left after three years of hell and torture. I’ve heard that the school has gotten better over the years. I doubt very much a school could have such a dramatic culture change. | | By Parent - 22 Dec 2017, Rate: excellent | This is an excellent school. By the way the fees above are just for tuition, read school fees for full amount, all very worth it.I have had 2 sons at this school.The Fransiscan ethos is completely through the school. The teachers are so very supportive and go that extra mile for students. They develop the whole male to be the best he can be in all areas to grow into great men. I would recommend this school to anyone and if there was one like this for girls, I would sent mine there. The difference is that most teachers have children so understand how to get the best out of the boys. | | >>More reviews... |
