Como Secondary College

My child is told 1 day before the ball that she can't attend it because she sworn in classWhilst I completely understand that is not acceptable behavior and I agree with the suspension they gave her for NEXT Monday; not allowing her to go to the ball tonight is just heartless and it is causing more damage to a very good and caring teenager girl than anything else could do and that decision is going to affect her school life going forward!Como management should consider their decisions and how they affect the students life in general and not only as a power" play because "I made the decision and that is it" Not fair really and I wish I could remove my kids from there! Please don't send your kids to that school!"

I dont go to this school, I dont know anyone from this school; But i can say with full, 100% confidence that is the most average school ever, 3/5

The schools structure is so outdated you can still find gum under desks from 2 decades ago, and they just paint over gum on the walls of the classes. The School is incredibly under staffed, and its strictness on rules are wrongly placed, they are more strict if you have you have your phone out than to people who gets bullied, and their placement of their focus of education is quite the main problem, only if you have one of the subject head or a teacher who worked there a long time you'll have a good time learning. Usually when you have a relief teachers no one does work at all, and as I am writing this the internet has gone down at the school, requiring me to restart this entire paragraph. Even the schools technology is outdated despite having enough money to upgrade the educational technology for students use in learning.Just recently there have been a certain incident causing the school to go on lockdown. (I will not specify the incident but most attending the school will know)

i currently go to this school, but i think that the school needs a lot of renovation, it looks so much like a prisonthe B block is always tight because there are so many kids but not much space to get through, i also think they should get better educational supplies, and renovate the school;s appearance, to look better.

Como is not good heaps of people are bullies and I really hate them the teachers I like them very nice and most of the people are not smart at all and lots of eshays.

The school is full of students that have zero intention on learning and disrupt classes as a result, almost makes me feel bad that all the classes I attend have at least 3 people missing simply because they hide on who-knows-where on the school grounds to avoid a certain subject. Yes, there are very good teachers that have the patience and show helpful techniques and in-depth knowledge but very little have willpower to control their own class (except from raising their voice once in a while). May I mention that the school also looks a lot like prison alkatraz? I'm not kidding, the entire building is built in the most brutal style. I've seen military camps better than this school.

This is a terrible school, I started year 7 in 2022 in the EMITS program and was very dissaponted. The popular group was a bunch of kids who skip school and swear, I had no friends and was always bored with nothing to do at lunch! The schools looks and feels like a prison! Dont go to this school!I left the school in term after three terms and it was the best choice I have ever made. I am now at Mercedes College in the city and I couldn't be happier, I have many friends and there is always something new to do at lunch.Please don't go to Como Secondary College!

let’s just say the staff is the problem, it’s not even about the students. the staff act like they are so privileged just bc they have a badge with bad font and earned their righteous place as an a*hole. it’s ridiculous, it’s like they can’t move on from the past like real adults and instead choose to make unnecessary comments as their so called “funny” humour. i’m especially talking about reception staff, im telling you the students need to set a good example for them and let the staff learn some common decency. so many students complain about the same thing, no wonder why people keep leaving. those bad ratings aren’t for nothing that’s a promise. como would be such a decent school if they knew how to employ the right staff. i’m glad i left that prison. no offence :)

Miss Paskandy is the best physical education teacher. P.S The best teacher EVER!

I'm currently in the EMITS program and i would not recommend paying for basically the same education as everyone else. There isn't any extra or more challenging work as well as you are limited in the electives you can do/choose. I would honestly call it a drag and you probably shouldn't waste your time or money.
