  • Staff signal is mixed to negative: teachers praise pay, some students, and colleagues, but repeatedly criticise management, fast deadlines, paperwork, and weak behaviour systems.
  • Several staff comments describe parents as having outsized influence, with inconsistent behaviour consequences and an atmosphere that can feel chaotic.
  • Student-run public writing presents a more positive view of opportunities, clubs, events, English exposure, and a friendly environment, while also discussing pressure and wellbeing topics.
  • The overall signal points to a resource-rich, opportunity-heavy campus with serious staff concerns about leadership and day-to-day discipline.
