| | | By Alumnus - 04 Aug 2018, Rate: poor | | I was once in special ed unit for at least 3 years (inbetween 2013 until 2016 when I graduated), I was originally from Ascot Park Primary School until 2012 when the staff didn't really handle my ASD that well (since I had Aspergers for around a decade now), my reason why I wanted to move to Forbes was because it was closer to where I live and that I had older half-brother who used to go to school until he graduated himself in 2003, I was ok with the class for at least around a year or two until it went downhill sometime in 2015, one of the teachers I had would raise her voice even if I made a simple mistake, I'd often get lied to by my teachers, one time in 2016 they said the schoolwork I was given was year 7 work but was actually year 3 schoolwork (keep in mind that I was mostly a bright student and one of the rare few who had no intellectual disability), I was treated way below my age by staff all just because of I certain class I was in even though most of my support came from friends who are my age and all of them were in mainstream classes, I'd often get excuses from both Carol Allen and Iain Elliot, one example in 2013, I was suspended all because of my hyperactivity shit and have gotten timeouts (detentions) for the stupidest reasons and got blamed also, kinda forgotten the rest but my low-self esteem issues have been there since I graduated nearly two years ago because I always felt useless compared to the mainstream kids in my year level since, at the time, I was the only year 7 in 2016 at forbes to be in the special ed class, it wasn't better after I left the school, after graduating forbes, I was in the autism intervention program at Blackwood High School, now considering I was the only student in their classroom who came from special ed program and the rest were mainstream, so it made things harder, and the teachers there didn't understand (including one time when one of the teachers said I was immature after I had an anxiety attack), after a few months, I was pulled away from that school, I'm currently at Hamilton Secondary College in the mainstream option, however, I don't really attend much mainly due to my past school experiences (obviously being misunderstood), my parents are organizing for me to go to the FLO (Flexible Learning Options Program) after I found the option by a personal close friend (who at the one at st marys, however, i'll be at the one at marion) and hopefully it will go good, so if everyone is reading this in the future, hopefully my luck will be wished, thanks :) ~ Josh Pedler | | | By Parent - 06 Mar 2018, Rate: excellent | The school is great but atm we have a acting principal that has been so crap.
Allowing a student to jump on aircons punch a child name call another and no suspension at all.....
This child should be suspended especially as a year 7 student new to this school.
He spits all the time and lies to try and get out of trouble as he can’t tell the truth. | | | >>More reviews... | |
