Willoughby Girls High School

I went to this school and they gave me a free laptop!! LIKE OMG!!! It was meant for my education but I just played fireboy and watergirl all day!!1 hehehehehhe!!!1 HAHAHAHAHAH

The worst years of my life. The staff is terrible and does not care about the students whatsoever. I was constantly harassed and targeted by some teachers to the point where I thought ending it was better. I deputy seemed to not care about this either and further put the blame on me since the teacher was a HSC marker somehow that makes it okay for her to bully kids. One of my classmates literally quit coming to class because of this teacher. 0/10 if you care about your kid never send them here unless you value uniform over their life.

This school cares WAY too much about their school uniform rather than their students' wellbeing. When people wear other jumpers (because they're cold or it's winter), they're asked to take it off. When people would like to dye their hair or wear makeup, they are told it ruins the dress code and they have to take it off. Someone I know dyed their hair over the break and wasn't able to take it off by the time we went back to school. They were constantly picked on by teachers, even though they kept telling them they were unable to remove it. One time on an bus back (from an excursion), the *wellbeing* teacher told me Wow

This school does not care about their students wellbeing, students are obviously hardly keeping up with the work EVEN AT THE END OF THE YEAR. And the other day I tried to make an important call to my mother for something THAT'S WAS IMPORTANT, and a teacher almost confiscated my phone even though we were told no to have our phones out UNLESS it's an important call to a parent, WHICH IT WAS. The teachers need to realise what the rules are. The school staff really need to calm down and take it down a notch with the whole you can't wear that jacket/jumper at school

I went here 10 years ago and it was fine by the standards of what I was expecting, most students in my grade were really nice and most of my teachers were nice too.... despite the fact I was an emotional wreck, a troublemaker, and not very good at understanding or keeping up with all the work, the staff were firm yet understanding of my struggles, and the former counsellor Mrs Rabone was lovely. My top 4 worst experiences from Willo had to be: 1. one of the former maths teachers Mr Lamp not understanding a single ounce of legitimate reasoning any student tried explaining to him in basic English, 2. one of the other maths teachers Mrs Coffey frequently using you look disabled" as an insult for a girl whose shirt collar wasn't outside her jumper

I heard that this school kicked out a student for being depressed during HSC instead of giving her support during this tough time dont send your kids here!

Don't go here unless you want to be in a school that chooses the uniform over it's education, like seriously it's just clothing. The teachers will get mad even if you just wear your own jacket because you can't afford the school one. This school cares way too much about the way the students look over ANYTHING.

When I was in year 10, I moved from a private school to this school, due to mental health issues, I have trouble making friends and the teachers don't really care. So I'm on my laptop at recess and lunch, and the thing is I have this thing which I find it difficult to make friends. Now, I regret moving because I get really sad everydayAlso, if you aren't in correct uniform and wearing a hoodie that has some kind of art" on it

Speaking as a parent - My children Penelope and Petra have been, V!0Iently buIIied and permanently scarred by the bathrooms gr@ffiti, an elongated d!ck had been spotted on the walls. This is completely unacceptable, atrocious and absurd.

Before attending this school my mental health was already quite low, after having past traumatic incidents in nearby areas. Now after having spent time at this school I can confidently say that my mental health has greatly suffered.Not only do the staff care more about uniforms than health, but I requested a meeting with a councillor and never got an appointment or even a checkup for MONTHS.Don’t send your children here. I’m in a constant state of stress and anxiety over the high expectations of all staff, but mostly Ms. Atchison, a Deputy Principal. I’ve expressed my thoughts of self harm and other similar feelings and never had any support whatsoever.If I could, I’d return back to a school I used to attend, where people were assaulted almost weekly, but students got support and weren’t forced to take off jumpers in the middle of winter.
