Box Hill High School was one of the first schools in Melbourne to offer the Accelerated Learning…read moreProgram, where gifted students can go and take advanced classes in the subjects they want to further themselves in. It is a school that has grown upward, because it is stuck between two main roads, the train tracks, and a football reserve. So it is built up to three levels, but there is no disability access because the buildings date back to 1930. The school began as a boy's school, and eventually went co-ed. It is a public school, but because of the unique nature of the Accelerated course, it has a high reputation. The science and music programs are top range, and the teachers are willing to help where they can. The school is right on the train line, so students come literally from everywhere just to go to this school and learn.

I attended this school around 2010. In year seven a combination of non-violent bullying and…read morehorrible teaching gave me post-traumatic stress disorder I doubt I'll ever fully recover from. My science/homeroom/human relations teacher would routinely make basic mistakes (such as claiming things spin in the same direction regardless of which direction they were locked at from). When I corrected her she would spend several minutes arguing with me instead of teaching. The school did nothing about the bullying, which taught me that going to teachers was useless, and subsequently I got into many fights against bullies and people who were breaking rules. The school's policy regarding punishment was unclear, but may have been based on a combination of gender and responsibility. When a group of boys attacked me unprovoked and I fought back, I and one of them were suspended for a day. When I provoked a girl who attacked me and I fought back, I was suspended for five days, while she wasn't punished at all. The girl's family was told about my punishment, while I was never told what the (probably nonexistent) penalties were for the people I told on. Some of the teachers were okay and even good, but some were beyond sitcom dysfunctional school terrible. One teacher was asked whether a student could get a drink, and he said "only if you finish all your work before class ends." The student did not, and minutes later the teacher drank from his water bottle and said "mmm delicious." Another teacher who I would correct got his revenge by marking me unfairly poorly. In case you think that's just paranoia, this is a man who when someone else corrected him, claimed "I was just testing you." There were a good variety of subjects and extracurricular activities though. I enjoyed debating, chess and working on the school magazine.

I love this school, its a good education station.read more
