Strathfield Girls High School

"Extremely rude unhelpful receptionist staff. No greetings or goodbye. Poor manners conducted by school staff. Very disappointing.."

"don’t give ur daughter to this school. all they want is your money and dedication to uniform. they make you pay unnecessary amounts of money. the counsellor will not help your child mentally, only give them study tips. the girls are horrible to one another. so many of the teachers have clearly nobody to talk to and should not be working with students. these teachers act as though the students are prisoners and have done nothing but trouble. if you want your daughter to have a normal life, don’t send them to Strathfield Girls high school."

"I wouldn't wish this school on anyone. The teachers here are unnecessarily strict and the current principal is unreasonable. The students are treated unfairly. All the payments the students make are wasted on posters and banners of students' faces. The school only cares about their reputation."

"This school is unreasonably strict and treats their students like toys. They do not respect their students and restrict a lot of the student's freedom, especially with the newly implemented rules. They are way too uptight about insignificant rules. Forget about education. This school is a one way ticket to becoming a fashion star."

"This school is appalling. The teachers are all impolite and rude, never taking the emotions of their students into consideration. The wellbeing program is nonexistent and during remote learning, the teachers put unrealistic expectations on such young students. They are humans, not robots and they are not just tools to assist your reputation. Do not send your children here, it is a punishment. I have spoken to many others who have attended and many say that the only good memories they have were outside of class time, which is concerning in itself. A teacher should make a child excited to learn and want to attend the school. Their teachers should make them comfortable in school and believe it is a safe space, and although this school would like you to believe that it is a kind welcoming environment, I assure you it is the complete opposite. The teachers allow no self expression, almost trying to make all the students look exactly the same even though they should be their own individual people, and proud of that fact. Teachers do not listen to students and everything is blamed on them. When they are not on top of all their work it's 'their fault', not considering all their other classes and out of school responsibilities, this is even more prominent during remote learning. I pray that all the students who have been sent here are doing okay and manage well with the conditions that their so called 'teachers' put them under."
