| Reviews | | By Student - 28 Apr 2023, Rate: bad | This school seems to prioritise the girls whose parents donate large sums to the building funds and other projects, and likes to sacrifice those who do not. I have not personally experienced bullying but I see it in my year and school daily. While the school has great facilities and a great program for struggling students it is an awful, toxic environment. Anyone who isn’t overly confident and doesn’t care what others think would be broken by that school. If you want to get your daughter to succeed there then you must be prepared to spend large sums of money on top of the school fees. The price is not worth the experience.
It is extremely damaging for self esteem and it has got to the point where my parents are considering sending me to public school instead of this Mosman princess factory. | | | By Student - 06 Aug 2022, Rate: good | OK, so Q is a balance between good and bad. It's true that a lot of the students can be mean and excluding but I've found that eventually, you can find some people to hang out with. Compared to friends from other schools, I find that Queenwood girls tend to have that party culture and do have a lot of money to spend on things that are 'trendy' or make them look 'older'. Evidently, 'classist' comments still occur but teachers are caring enough to try and intervene, although it doesn't really prevent it. However, my friends really are supportive and I have people behind my back so my confidence is still pretty good. Because Q is quite focused on their image, lots of the community learn to make themselves presentable and that gives us pride. I also find that claims of homophobia aren't that true, because some people in my year identify as LGBT+ and people seem to be fine about it.
Academically, Queenwood is really good because you have IB classes, and they give academically successful students a suitable amount of extension as well as lots of support. The extracurriculars are also pretty good, like dance and rowing. However, if you want a school with lots of options, maybe Q isn't for you as the small cohort result in a more individualised experience, but some extracurriculars aren't offered as there aren't enough students to form teams and get coaches.
Overall, Queenwood is a great school with room to improve but generally, if you want a supportive school that is academically successful, Queenwood might be the choice for you. | | | By Student - 11 Jul 2022, Rate: bad | | Queenwood is the worst thing that ever happened to me, if I could go back in time and never know that this school ever existed, I would. This school is a living purgatory. The amount of bullying, body shaming, homophobia and racism I had the misfortune of witnessing within only a six month time span at Queenwood was horrific. They have this conservative and old fashioned way of thinking, a ‘if it didn’t happen here then it’s not our problem’ and ‘put up with it’ attitude towards the behaviour that is reported to staff. They simply don’t care. There is hardly anyone to reach out to at Queenwood if you need to talk about issues or personal problems and on the rare occasion there is, your “private” conversation is dealt with extremely unprofessionally and it always gets around to the students somehow. After leaving Queenwood after only six months I have developed severe anxiety, self esteem issues and an eating disorder because of my anxiety. DO NOT GO TO QUEENWOOD. | | | >>More reviews... | |
