Geelong Baptist College

My six children have had great experiences at Geelong Baptist College - teachers are easy to approach for parents and students, teachers are SUPER committed to your children achieving their goals. My eldest son got his first preference after graduating in 2015. There are lots of opportunities for students there, feels like one big happy family. I smile to myself in the mornings when I see year 7's and year 12's shooting basketballs together before school.

Highly recommend great discipline. They handle bullying really well.

One of the best colleges in Geelong region, great management, teachers and well kept campus. Absolutely love to send my two boys here.

Great School I find a killer fish!

BAPTIST BAPTIST BAPTIST WOOO HOOO

No

as a year 9 I think this school is ok but the chips and gravy adds 2 stars :)

It’s good for your kids

Decent school

Place has worser infrastructure than the US the buildings are going to fall any second with all the innocent children inside of them. School has worst bullying policy one could imagine my son came home from school and was crying a river and he told me that some year 6's hung him upside down on the monkey bars and started beating his head in with a cricket bat. Mate someone recorded it and lord jesus above they were hitting home runs with his head. Also since me an me son are of indigenous decent the principle said on the loud speaker and i quote "attention students (my son) is an indigenous individual would you all please take turns king hitting him and spitting on him thankyou" i wanna sue this place but cant because im poor from giving this hole my super annuation so i cant retire anymore. Also this place gets more state money than public schools and they cant install working drink taps? Principles sourcing for profits$$$$

After about 8 months of constant bullying, I’ve come to a stage to voice my concerns and opinions. Unfortunately the school is not taking bullying seriously at all, I feel I’m not the only parent feeling like this.
My child is being bullied, hurt, pushed around, picked on, name called, personal items taken of them and thrown in bin, after we complain to the school, my child is in an even worse situation because his ( snitching) the principals are aware of this. The only assistance we got was they won’t make it out my child snitched. How far does this go?
I’ve heard of other parents going through the same situations, their children being suicidal etc. again the school not taking complaints seriously. Please reach out if you are facing similar issues. This must stop

What is this? A centre for ants! How can we be expected to teach children to learn how to read if they can't even fit inside the building

Unfortunately I'm going to have to agree with the other comment regarding the way in which bullying is dealt with - and yes it is prevalent at this school. I just found out that an actual teacher told my son it was innapropriate to get his parent involved because he is now 18. The teacher told him this is how you end up losing friends. This teacher shouldn't have even known about the incident or that I had contacted the school. To have to now go through this on top of everything else is heartbreaking for both of us and I want others to know in case they experience something similar and feel as though they can't speak up. The more people that say something the better the chances this doesn't happen to the next child.

im going to share myt shocking story of my experience at this school for 5 years i was harassed for the entire 6 hours by everyone in the school multiple occasions of me messing up a question and getting knocked out by the teacher by a hard punch to my head and ended up in hospital 20 times the staff thought i was indecent for wearing my prised family heirloom a cheesy nappy and i was stabbed by a year 1 with a pencil because i wore that!!!!!!!! police will do nothing there is a picture of my below

School has a horrible take on bulling and isn't very supportive campus is in horrible condition and the buildings look like they're going to fall

This is one of the WORST schools I've ever been to the bullying policy is so bad they tell you to solve it yourself even if your getting physically hurt by others
Overall this school I've had a terrible experience here!!!
