Botany Downs Secondary College

Dismal. Unprofessional conduct from many teachers. If you value your kids education do not send them here. Unless they’re a top scholar and / over achiever.

this school is so sigma its making me feel good this Is a good school send you kids here they can learn alot of things:)

Their school policy is quite inadequate, particularly for cousins residing at the same address who are also Pacific Islanders. Only one child per address, really?What the hell?

Absolutely trash school, the environment is ok, but there is too much litter everywhere, like think about the turtles. The staff there is alright but my grandson has been coming to me (a war veteran) and asking how to deal with these insecure bullies that were beating him up on the field. He said the teachers do nothing about it as they seem scared of him (big polynesian guy). He also has started to vape, which I have personally told him not to do, but he does it anyways, as there are kids in the toilets' vaping and he got asked if he wanted to try and now he's addicted. How I would solve these issues is to have more stricter teachers enforcing the rules of the school and actually following their motto "Maximising achievement through intellectual growth" by teaching them properly. My granddaughter smart kid she is complains that different teachers teach different things, like they teach the same subject eg. Trigonometry but different teachers teach different ways to solve it and it gets confusing. My grandson again, has also said he went to the 'lead students' whatever they do and asked them for help to solve the bulling issues but they just laughed and ignored him. Very disappointing from this school with great potential.
