    No care for their students.

    I went to Dane Court as a student, I was bullied and depressed. The school was informed and ignored all my complaints, I constantly got cold called in my lessons and targeted by teachers because i was socially awkward. Nobody cared. I came home crying every day, horrible school and community. I would always fall behind in class and if you fall behind and get low grades, you get detentions and punishment, no help.

    Awful is an understatement

    On multiple occasions I went to the mental health team and a few other trusted teachers in the school about how badly I was struggling and the shrugged it off as nothing, put me on a "fast tracked" wait list for a councillor who still took multiple years. Furthermore the pressure you receive from the teachers to get good grades to the point where you're convinced you've failed if you've not got 75%/grade A was debilitating. The amount of students who used to take drugs and things like that to tr...

    My child and others deserve better

    The student's hate each other and the teacher's vouch for 'good mental health' and a 'safe environment' - yet when theres a problem... not even a detention or anything The student's that bully others or worse - are only given warnings and a stern talking to. My daughter came home with bruises on her arms and I found out her bullies are allowed to stay in school - sometimes even sitting next to her in class Absolutely disgusted

    Not a very safe, safeguarding team

    When confronted with a racist student who is also a danger to younger students as well as other peers (takes pictures without their permission and also dates significantly younger) - the school decides to berate the student that had compiled legible evidence as well as statements from the victims and instead turns the situation on them rather than punishing the perpetrator - doesn't give him anything at all.. not even a single warning or detention

    Dane Court doesn’t care.

    Dane Court Grammar School is honestly an abomination of a place; they lie about their code of conduct, they do not follow through with what they say, and they lie about things to get you to attend the school. They do nothing to help students being bullied, sexually harassed or the blatant sexism, homophobia and transphobia students have to deal with on the daily. They just don’t care about us.

    This school is not it

    The school does not handle racism, homophobia and slurs properly at all. There’s honestly about 3 teachers in the school who recognise they are inappropriate and punish students for using them. There is overwhelming pressure from teachers to grade in level 8+ and anything below is not good enough. The food is wayyyy overpriced and not worth the money at all.

    Not the best

    teachers literally don't afte abt how much you're struggling just ur grades, unorganised as anything. I have witnessed a spilt drink be left long enough to go moldy in the heart.
