Melbourne Girl's College

Teachers don’t know what they’re teaching about, they’re also more focused on telling students off than improving their own knowledge and teaching skills. School cares more about uniform than student’s well-being and education. Students have low work ethics and no academic drive to complete VCE. School also completely disregards the health of students especially when the weather is extreme.

Melbourne Girls’ College is, on paper, a good school. The teachers are, for the most part, pretty good; with the exception of a few bad ones. The environment is reasonably accepting, and while there are, of course, some bad students, you ate likely to make friends with your classmates. The overarching issue is that the school is highly reputation-driven, and focuses on the school as a whole and how it “looks” rather than the welfare of the individual. Support can be sup-par and the teachers and staff really don’t seem to know what they’re doing when faced with a student with poor mental health, for example. They are fixated on outward reputation as a “private school with public school fees” and leave behind any students who don’t fit the standard. I would think twice before going here, considering the lack of support for the individual.
