The worst school due to toxic culture. Permissive management structure unable to deal with problems. Ageing principal with zero principles doesn't believe in the school's philosophy but rules from a power structure where his actions cannot be challenge. Lots of boot lickers around him that have husbands in jail for pedophilia. Who in their right mind would send their child there? Those who are in denial and don't want to move to Dural to send their child to Lorien Novalis.

The biggest mistake we have ever made for my child's education and wellbeing. There are some individual teachers who are well meaning and dedicated - but hands tied by out of touch Management and students who are irresponsible, entitled and overall out of control. Academically the students are behind and do miss out, this you find out when changing schools. So glad we left the school, just wish we had never started.

I would like to warn the public about certain people in positions of management at Glenaeon. I've been a student since primary and I have missed out due to management not following the philosophy of Steiner education. Thank goodness I will be leaving soon. One or two in positions of management have caused me to want to leave the school. Luckily they are older and will hopefully be retiring soon. On top of the terrible administration, and how badly the teachers gossip all I can say is good riddance. Constant controlling and kowtowing to NESA - Glenaeon is not a Steiner School.

I would like to thank certain teachers at Glenaeon, even though my child has been a student since primary I was worried that he may miss out ‘academically’ due to the schools philosophy. Thank goodness though, he has had some great teachers since he was in Year 9 where the real high school begins. One or two in particular have made him not only want to stay in school but he looks forward to that class. Luckily, he has had that teacher again and I can’t stress how good it feels to see my child smile when he talks about school, his class and his teacher. So on top of the enjoyment, the work and effort that I can see go into my son, all I can say is thank you. Constant praising, feedback and even weekend classes. It’s rare to see a school where the teacher is prepared to do that. Thanks
