Bad:

• 20 minutes away from home

[astroe]

?

Bahaha.
It's close in some respects, but it's also far, like come on 20 minutes on a GOOD day.

Might I also add that it's 20 minutes by car, but about 40 minutes by train + walking.

 

[absorber]

That ain't too bad, I know a guy who goes to chatswood and lives in quaker's hill

 

[Cee.]

Good:
- Small classes, only around 15 pupils per class or sometimes less.
- Located in a suburb (Stratty) where all the express trains always stop.
- Close to the station and university (where students buy food from there).
- Nearly every class has a smart board/interactive board.
- Massive hall, basketball courts, soccer field, netball courts.

Bad:
- Limited subject choices, no economics or legal studies.
- There is crappy teachers but again we have the best ones.
- Everyone knows everyone.

Eh, that's all I can think of.

[Freakstyler09]

The good-
1). The majority of the teachers in the mathematics, English, history and science departments are awesome and know their stuff. They are also mentally tough and very tactful in dealing with idiots.
2). Seniors start school early at 7.55am.
3). There is an excellent variety of books in the library.
4). There is a HIU for the hearing impaired.
4). The unpopular kids in the school are cool.

The bad-
1). 95% of the juniors are dickheads and sluts whose mental capacities can be compared to that of less than a piece of A4 paper.
2). The year sevens are always teased by the year 9s and 10s for no good reason, especially the good year seven kids who like to learn. The disabled and deaf kids at our school are also always teased frequently and ostracised by juniors and sometimes even seniors each day.
3). When you do your exams the exam room is never quiet. There are always idiots in the blocks who truant and run around screaming to distract you or to attract attention to themselves.
4). We always hear the German teacher yelling every day to try to control his annoying and stupid year 8s in the room adjacent to mine when I have Ancient or Modern History. He's a nice guy and it's just slack and sad when the year 8s do this sort of crap to him and wreck his room.
5). Most of the school does not want to learn and instead like provoking the teachers to go into a rage which sometimes happens.
6). Good kids are forced to act bad to fit in and they thus lose the ability to stand up for themselves and make their own decisions. This is bad for them in later life.
7). When you lose a valuable it is gone forever. Missing Ipods, mobile phones or blackberries are rarely returned.
8). The phenomenon of someone's missing mobile phone is almost a weekly occurance.
8). Most of the popular kids are not nice and talk about trivial things that do not matter i.e. sex, drinking etc.
9). Some of our senior leaders hardly do anything.
10). Senior leader elections are based looks and popularity rather than leadership. (you don't do a speech when try out for senior leader. You just say your name at assembly and the school votes off that.)
11). Most of the white kids are racist and are Australian jingoists who don't even know one thing close to Australian history or values.
12). The toilets are never cleaned and thus digusting and stinky.
13). There is no soap in the toilets nor toilet paper.
14). You don't take a shit at school. You have to wait until you get home.
15). There is a huge lack in facilities. We also have outdated equipment and our hall can not fit us all in.
Sport equipment is also wrecked by idiots.
16). Our knockout sport team coaches in sports other than rugby or soccer don't train us. They look at us and let us be. We have to train ourselves (don't get me talking about our knockout basketball team).
17). The PE department is very, very lazy and just want to get paid. Some of the PE teachers are arrogant wankers who don't know anything as well.
18). The social science department is very dismal in teaching.
19). There is no such place in the school where you can do your study in any peace or quiet. You have to study at home.
20). No one encourages us to do extra-curricular activites and thus most of our year 12 university applicants have nothing to put down in their CVs. It's deeply saddening to see the expression on their faces when they realise that their hard work and dedication has amounted to amounted to almost nothing when they apply for scholarships or really selective universities.
21). Our career advisor hardly does anything for the rest of the school except for those who are senior leaders (i.e. syncophants) and she discourages us from applying to universities other than that Wollongong or UWS. She also only helps those she likes thus you if you are quiet and shy like me you must be your own career advisor.
22). Her smile also pisses you off as you can see that it is completely fake.
23). Hardly any of the seniors help each other out and always keep resources to themselves. Bitching is prevalent in the senior years.
24). The seniors always complain about private or selective high schools rather than actually doing their work. (which is understandable but annoying at times)
25). Only German is offered as a language to learn.
Our LOTE teacher (German teacher) does not inform his year 8s about the option of Open High School. You must do that yourself which is disappointing since there are some students who like to do languages besides German but it understandable since most of his classes are filled with idiots.
26). The substitutes that come into school always seem to be some random person dragged off the street to teach.
27). We have to share our oval with the primary school children. Fun.
28). There is not shelter to cover us when it rains.
29). When it rains the popular kids always come in and crowd the library, talking and not putting back their female magaziens on their respective proper racks.
30). The librarian is a real b#%$*. (the other one is nice though)
31). The library is always closed during recess on Fridays.
32). The computer lab is situated in the library thus the library is never quiet when you want to study.
33). Seniors don't shut up in the library.
34). 60% of the Seniors don't study.
35). The school is ranked 600 or somewhere around that.
36). There is more to add to this list.

Seriously, your school should be named and shamed, although it's unfair to the good students, at least it exposes some of the lazy teachers in your school and may be they'll work harder or be more motivated to teach from the shame that they get.
