They care more about if you wear the wrong uniform specifically undershirts and socks rather than your education

W school fr. The smell of blueberry flavored air in the bathrooms means that the teachers try their very best to keep the bathrooms smelling fabulous. 9/11 send your kids there.

Great school. Incredible facilities such as classrooms, heaters and bathrooms. The bathrooms are especially fascinating due to the pink raspberry flavoured air. The aforementioned heaters sometimes function well enough to heat the classrooms to habitable temperatures! Astounding. The students are generally lovely people with brilliant hair cuts. The intense smell of Lynx deodorant is, after all, a sign that someone is a trustworthy individual. The uniform policy is one of the school's most enjoyable features, as getting changed multiple times a day for Physical Education is something I know I would enjoy! The fact that you receive a detention whether you collect a uniform pass is not only logical, but easily justifiable through flawless logic which the teachers like to keep secret from the students.

In summary, this is one of the greatest schools of all time. It has lovely students and staff, as well as good buildings and facilities. I would rate it 5/5 if I could!

Patriarchy rules this school. Highly disrespectful attitudes towards female staff and students. Very high ratio of male to female students, resulting in sports worshipping, male macho culture. Girls keep quiet and stay under the radar. Don’t send your daughters (oryour sons for that matter) here.

I loved this school back when i was there. The illicit drug trade occuring in the bathrooms was really a deciding factor for me when deciding to send my son there, so many opportunities for entrepreneurship. Wonderful!

THIS SCHOOL IS RACIST! I am a asian and i was treated very unfairly. I was banned from the school discord server just because I am ASIAN! Please don't send you kid here, it will make them hopless humans in their life.

In a world which is changling so rapidly, racism should not exist. #STOPRACISM

This school was Nuts. I attended from 2016 to 2021. Very wholesome time. Except one time i got rolled by the uniform policy when i forgot my sports uniform. Also another time i tried to go to coles and got a red chronicle. Its all good though. I hosted battle of the bands like a beast also. My brother was src and has his name engraved, isnt that crazy. One time he had to get up really early for some src thing though and it was when we had the bunk bed and he woke me up. Whoops. Yeah also theres like a room filled with asbestos thats locked off and thats crazy. But this school does "go hard" all jokes aside, send your children there NOW.

Fantastic, well balanced and no-nonsense high school with a good music program and very inclusive. I'm really happy to have chosen this school for my children.

Wonderful teaching staff and non teaching staff, however what there are for staff members lack heavily for students such as discipline outside school. Not somewhere for your child to learn respect and in general: do legal stuff and be a good citizen.

WHY CAN'T ALIENS INVADE CAMBERWELL HIGH SCHOOL INSTEAD OF WESTALL? COME ON ALIENS, WE'RE NOT "THAT" BAD: (

Actual Effort:
To be fair, the school isn't good, but it isn't bad. Some classes are a bit noisy - to the point of which teachers cannot control them; and others are just full-on quiet.
But as specified, it really just comes down to luck and what teachers/classes you get.
Thankfully, violence is extremely rare - mostly (thankfully) absent all together.
All-in-all, it's an okay school.

This school is absolutely horrible, i had to make a throwaway account just to post this because they give students detention when their parents write bad reviews and keeps giving them detentions until they take them down.one of the worst teachers is miss stojanoska, she is a horrible teacher who gives students detentions for no reason at all.

Coming to this school is like a gamble
Some teachers are good, the others are horrible,
Lets start with the positive ones,
Most of the sciences, math's, humanities, art, music and tech contain decent teachers, especially the heads of math's and biology are simply amazing. Even those teachers who are frowned upon within these faculties are half decent, (I mean even if some of their teaching methods aren't suitable towards the majority, at least they can mark sacs properly, eh? , I apologize for being a bit harsh here, but hey at least they are TRYING to improve)
Then there's english, that one subject, crowned one of the most important subjects in all of vce, as it must be in your top 4. Being Camberwell high school, of course their most major screw up resides here.
This is where it is really a gamble, the question of whether or not you leave with a raw 40+ or a 32, literally. (As in some are absolutely amazing, and the other is less so, you know who they are)
I don't understand if it's pure laziness, or misinformation which leads to the difference within average sac marks between classes taught by the same teachers year after year. (some classes get marked up whilst the others.) I mean seriously, cross marking isn't that hard, how long does it take? 1 extra day of work? And by saving that 1 day of work your effects will be detrimental towards the students ENTIRE life.

This was probably more like a rant than a review but I just wanted to get it out there, although I have long since left that school and continued with my life in university, some recent, similar events in university has caused me to reflect on my past.p. S. Miss Laughlin, if your reading this, instead of pouring all your resources into renovating the court yard and maybe by now other buildings. Consider investing in the teachers, a pretty outlook can only attract so many new students year after year, but what makes them truly want to stay is a good education brought on by experienced and knowledgeable teachers. It is the foundation of any school, and maybe some day in the future, i will change my rating on this review accordingly.
