I would like to publicly call for the school board to stand down and be investigated, they are refusing to deal with any issues about the Principal – I don’t know of any parent who has had an even slightly positive / good encounter with him. Bullying is just getting ignored – including bullying from the top down. Kids are getting attacked and hurt yet nothing is being done, even when police have been called. Kids are also getting preyed on by the Principal and families are being wrecked by all the affairs he is having with married parents. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
DON NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE (unless you are happy with the above and all the other awful review, which I have no doubt are all true).
IT’S THE BEST SCHOOL IN THE WHOLE WORLD AND ITS GOT AMAZING REWARDS FOR SHOWING GOOD BEHAVIOUR AND AIMING HIGH AND BEING KIND. I THINK IT SHOULD BE A 4.5-
Cons: Some teachers don’t really care what happens and the medical room people are like “Oh its just put on a plaster” WHEN A KIDS LIKE SERIOUSLY HURT!
I am really really mad at the school – theyre not only getting rid of the bad reviews on here trying to hide the mess the school is in but the boart are also playing games with my complaint i made about the principal behaviour. They “lost” it and aren’t doing anything about it now, except trying to bully me. Finding the fake positive reviews funny – how sad they can’t deal with he real problems but have time to take down the negative reviews and post positive ones
This was taken down for a 5th time!! 1st posted in June 2023 – The fact that it has so many likes yet the School keep taking this down tell you everything you need to know about this place, they are trying to cover up by taking down all negative posts! Amazing teachers however the School Board and the Ministry of Education are failing this School by not investigating and acting on the appalling actions of the new Principal Mr Steffensen. However a lot of the good teachers have now left
Update: Post taken down again! They are tryin to hide everything that is going on.
Update: I will keep updating and reposting this information
Update: The kura has now released some of the data on the fyi site but not all responses! Further examples of them not being honest with the community. The fact over 9 teachers have left this year shows how bad things have got.
Nawai ka he, katahi ka he ke atu (going from bad to worse).
Bex Galloway’s observations are whakamataku (frightening) “Following implementation the board could expect to see impacts on data for (the then) Year 1’s at Year 8.” Kore kupu (there are no words). All the information can be found in Plimmerton Board Hui. Avoid this kura if you can
