Carranballac P-9 College - Boardwalk Campus

I am shocked to see so many unusually bad reviews about the school, I can only guess many might not be genuine reviews. My children have been going to this school since school years, they are happy and have nice group of friends whose parents know each other for many years, 1 of my children have special needs and the school has been incredibly supportive, special thanks to John and Veronica, we are happy to have such a good school in the neighbourhood.

Worst school. I started grade 7 and I only lasted 3 week's there. The math teacher Mrs Offen force student's to do their work or else they go to the principal. Along with my Home group teacher. Mr Karageorge or Mr K. He made us run 4 lap's around the oval next to Stockland's mall. They also body shame fat student's or obese student's. I get they want kid's to have a healthy life and body but also making them run 4 lap's and doing sit up's and push up 20X is just bad. They also keep pushing the obese'd kid's to keep doing more than 20x push up's/sit up's and I can see them struggling in pain. Definitely not a good school. A lot of kid's fight as-well and swear. The teacher's there don't even care about it. I have a friend for over 3 years from my old school. We both went to Carranballac but a girl came up to her and became good friend's with her but she was mean to me. She was trying to break the 3 year's of friendship between me and my best friend. But her sister was nice. If you are planning to go to Carranballc, then I don't recommend it unless you want to be forced to do work and get bullied by teacher's. (I also had to move schools after 4 weeks because of the teachers not caring and being abusive.)

Ignore my name, throwaway account. This school is quite possibly the worst school you could choose for your kids. The teachers are completely unmotivating aside from a few. (Mr K (unrelated to), Ms K, Ms C and Ms O'N) The rest of the good teachers have left as for which no one should be surprised. The teachers for the younger kids are always trying to instill an atmosphere of fear (atmosfear) which is obviously not what you want for the equivalent of a human sponge. And as you get to higher year levels, the teachers then either have no backbone, with the class decaying into utter chaos all the time. Or instill that atmosfear to a degree of 100. The classes are suffocating. But now, the blame isn't completely on the teachers, they're understaffed, overworked and underpaid. With subs coming in more often than the teachers, most of which make a complete mess of the class. And in this school it isn't an uncommon occurrence for an extra-curriculum teacher to teach a second or third subject. No, its not because they want to, its because this school is UNDERSTAFFED. And who would be surprised, management thought it would be a good idea to spend all the money on cameras, meaning Food Tech has the lowest quality ingredients to work with, meaning nothing genuinely wanted by students will be added, meaning they've been forced to use the after school care rooms as classrooms, meaning they have literally no cleaners. And lastly, meaning you shouldn't take your child to this trashy, unmotivating, toxic school.

Really good school I only went here for a bit but it was really good. The teachers are really nice. Would reccomend.
