| Reviews | | By Alumnus - 12 Jan 2024, Rate: good | I just graduated this year and while I can relate to a lot of the reviews saying there is a sense of elitism, I think it mostly depends on the people in the cohort and how they were personally raised. The majority of people in my year come from very privileged backgrounds, but I believe coming to SCEGGS has helped them mature and appreciate it rather than trapping them in the 'private school bubble' that's so often talked about - the school itself fosters introspective individuals. The fees are very expensive for such a small campus with limited sporting facilities, however the real benefit of going to SCEGGS is the connections that are made there. The teachers are also extremely helpful - as someone who never ranked highly in any subjects, I was given so many opportunities to talk to my teachers on their own time, which I think shows the great care SCEGGS goes to to hire teachers who are empathetic and passionate about their work.
Overall I believe it is a great school, but your experience will depend on your cohort and who you choose to surround yourself with. | | | By Alumnus - 11 Oct 2022, Rate: bad | | i spent 2 years at this school and can confidently say that it was the worse 2 years of my life. | | | By Student - 12 Sep 2022, Rate: excellent | | i started at sceggs last year for year 7 and was extremely nervous, as i am not as priviledged as others at the school and am attending on a scholarship. However, the girls, staff and general community are so amazing, I had no reason to worry at all. SCEGGS is so connected to the community, giving away everything they can to places such as the Rough Edges cafe and to many other charities throughout the community on a regular basis. This goes so far as to walk out in the community and talk to people who may be sleeping rough, as well as providing home-cooked meals for them, cooked by the girl's families. The school is a very accepting place, and makes everyone feel welcome in a diverse environment. Every student is given a chance to thrive in a school that has been shaped by the girls who have gone there previously, and all talents are appreciated and developed, whether you are musical or sporty, academic or artistic, a socialite or a introvert. The school values everyone and the staff do everything possible to make people feel comfortable and give them the best environment to excel in. There are many opportunities to collaborate with other schools in musicals, Australian Air Force Cadets (with Sydney Grammar Boys School), debating and sporting. SCEGGS also pushes you to be the best you can be without overwhelming you and pushing you unwillingly. The parents have lots of opportunities to talk to teachers and each other, as well as coming to many information sessions with their daughters. I am so grateful to belong to a community like SCEGGS where I am valued for who I am and am encouraged to try new things and step outside of my comfort zone to develop myself further. If you are looking for a school that will create an atmosphere where differences are appreciated and encouraged, and you can feel deeply connected to all the Old Girls and future students as well as the staff and community, SCEGGS is the school for you. we are taught to be appreciative for the life we live and seize every opportunit given to us. I love you SCEGGS, thank you for everything and everyone you have given me <3 | | | >>More reviews... | |
