| Reviews | | By Parent - 10 May 2024, Rate: excellent | | Absolutely awful for kids with learning difficulties. Only in class support if/when the teachers have time. No remedial program, no aides and no school psych. ILPs are created by the school entirely internally and parents have no sign off. | | | By Parent - 08 Sep 2019, Rate: good | | I wrote a previous review & wish to change it to say that this school has many wonderful attributes. It offers a different & valuable way to learn, & for some secondary students a really good fit. My honest opinion expressed in the previous review was simply to invite reflection on what one considers valuable at school - if you are interested in more traditional academic-only focussed place of learning then you might feel frustrated but if you are looking for a broader approach then the school could really work for you. There was no intention to discourage anyone from considering the school - it can & does produce lovely students. | | | By Parent - 08 Sep 2019, Rate: bad | | Be careful to check adherence to curriculum especially in the secondary school (language and IT are often neglected). Check that students are learning the specific skills needed for different disciplines as the inter-disciplinary approach can skim over this, as can the multi-aged classes. Some ‘building block’ skills risk being skipped - where students build on previous years learning in a subject - when all subjects across three year levels at secondary are ‘covered’ via a few year topic foci (or ‘learning journies’). | | | >>More reviews... | |
