Ursula Frayne Catholic College reviews
12We’re very grateful for the wonderful school and community that is Ursula Frayne. We’ve been so happy so far with all three of our children currently attending the primary school campus. We particularly appreciate the extra resources on hand, such as literacy support, the school councillor and on site OT and speech pathology.
Frayne is a fantastic school for kids from K-12. Both my girls have been there since Kindy and they have thrived and grown at the college. The teachers and staff are very supportive and caring, providing a wholistic and inclusive learning environment throughout.
Wonderful school community! Highlight of the school are the students. Hardworking, respectful and aspirational. Teachers work so hard. Frayne is fabulous!
This school both Primary and Secondary are exceptional. My daughter is in Year 6 and I could not be happier with her development. We had a very traumatic personal family incident happen recently and I felt the that the teachers and the school wrapped its arms around her and my family. My son graduated from high school 2 years ago and is thriving at Curtin Uni doing an accounting degree. They are both so well grounded and centred in Christ and that is all any parent can ask for. I’m glad some other parents who are unhappy have had to courage to move their kids to do home schooling or another school. Attitude comes from the heart and this school has plenty to give
Was a recent former student at this school from Year 7 - 12. I want to provide an honest review of what really goes on in this school.
This school does not practice 'Christian' values, yes they help the community but they fail to properly fulfil their responsibilities to provide pastoral care to students. BULLYING is a big issue, and it is not properly addressed. I have made reports in the past but nothing has been done. There are teachers that literally let the students walk all over them, don't teach, and condone unacceptable behaviour. Some of the teachers even sided with the perpetrators themselves, as they were considered were socially 'popular'. If you report, the teachers would also mark you harsher on your upcoming test/exam. They will spite you.
I am happy I finally graduated but the amount of tears, trauma and grief this school had caused me has led me to say - don't bother with this school. I don't want prospective students to go through what I went through. Although I have had a few great teachers, the others have been unjust and I have been extremely disappointed with how the leadership handled certain issues (that should've been addressed).
Until the leadership and staff take parents and students' concerns seriously, nothing will be done. For the sake of your child's mental health, avoid. There are other schools out there (even public ones) that offer much more support. I have had many friends from public schools who've had much better schooling experiences.
School is abrasive, man cannot see sky worth a torn pocket. I feel it not so believable that it really good.
Much love from Tajikistan! Greatest country really!
Great school. All 3 of my children attend and they are very happy. Teachers are great as is Principal and Vice Principal. I would definitely recommend it.
Bullying is a big problem at this school! My son was attacked by another student during a period in front of the teacher, suffered a head injury and a broken nose but instead of expelling this student, the school has blamed my son because it’s easier than taking a responsibility for the incident! Unbelievable!
Frayne was honestly one of the more disappointing school I've studied in for quite a few reasons.
I'll start by giving praise to Frayne for being a really well organised school for the most part, having great teachers and doing a relatively decent job at making students feel welcome, a very good structure with a great amount of well set up classrooms, plenty of areas for students to enjoy during their breaks a fantastic canteen and a huge gym.
What I can't stand is how most of the teachers that I had, despite being great teachers always let the students step over them, disrupt the classes and be an outright nuisance and nothing is ever done about it, I could literally name every single moron I've had the displeasure of being in the same class with made my learning experience miserable and disruptive.
I chose this school because I wanted a good learning experience and most of the time I learnt what some other kid did over the weekend because they'd just be talking over the teacher.
The main issue with Frayne is the students, it's as if they're just letting any uneducated savage in because they're getting an additional yearly paycheck.
Bullying is a huge problem in this school, absolutely nothing is done about the constant harassment students receive.
There were students that had to move schools because they just couldn't handle it anymore.
It's partly the reason I left a year early, but for me it ended up being a good thing, since I went to TAFE and started running my own business whilst everyone else still had another year to go.
Whilst I mentioned the staff were good, there are exceptions, some of the teachers were absolutely terrible and made certain classes an absolute nightmare to sit through.
Frayne has the potential to be a better school, but for that to happen they need to start addressing issues that several students and parents have reported to in which they took no action at all to make a difference.
Sadly it seems like whoever is running the place, is more interested in earning a paycheck rather than improving the state of the school so more students can have a better experience.
Best school in vic park, wa, australia, oceania, the world! Cant get any better than this! Don't go anywhere else, Frayne is the best!
Great school. All 3 of my children attend and they are very happy. Teachers are great as is Principal and Vice Principal. Be oils definitely recommend it.
