Danebank An Anglican School for Girls

Applied our child here and they took the deposit, never heard anything, not a call or anything and no replies to email. A pretty poor effort from a "reputable" school. Our daughter starts school soon and we've already put her elsewhere.

This school, in my opinion, has fallen short. Multiple times from various teachers and students, but especially teachers, I have experienced rampant ableism, homophobia, transphobia and racism in the school. This school does not acknowledge the LGBTQIA+ community, and likes to pretend they doesn't exist, and when people did try to speak out, they said it would upset the parents. When bullying is rampant, it gets reported but nothing is done because excuses are made like "she's having a hard time". They claim to care about mental health, but refuses to give someone off school because theyre feeling sick mentally. They claim to preach equity yet I have heard multiple slurs being said in this school without any consequence, and discrimination against minorities still is rampant today in this school. There were some good parts about being at this school like the range of after school activities you can do, but personally, if this rampant discrimination against people who are disabled, LGBTQIA+ or POC does not stop, then people won't come here anymore. I really hope you change, because a welcoming environment can make all the difference for a childs mental health. Punish those who are being discriminatory accordingly, and please change Danebank. So less people are traumatised. Thank you.

I have friends that go to this school and constantly tell me how absolutely appalling the quality of teaching is and how the teachers don't care about the education of the students at all but instead worship the bullies that cover up there wrongs with sweet talking and lies. The classrooms are disgusting with many not having working air conditioning and expect the students to concentrate and learn in summer heats. With Walls so thin you can hear the Junior School screaming, while doing year 12 exams, then when confronted about it the teachers brush it off and don't have any resolve for any issues. With teachers that dislike and put down students because they can with no motive and teachers that allow bullies to get away without punishment this school is on the verge of of collapse physically and metaphorically with floods and power outages every other day this school is unfit to hold students. With immense amounts of new students expected next year the conditions are only going to worsen. I would NEVER recommend going to this school for anyone ever.

My daughter has been in this school since pre-kindy. She’s now in year 5. The teachers are exceptionally supportive and graceful. The girls are polite and caring. She enjoys going to school everyday. The school has not only taught her academic skills but also soft skills such as resilience, team work, and positive mindset. They were encouraged to analyse and recognise their unique strength and character trait since year 3. I highly recommend this school.

acts of violence have been reported in this school, the girls are educated badly, the teachers don't even care about their application, and they neglect the kids. The school canteen's food is very unhealthy, there have been bugs found in the food. Whenever someone does bad things, the teachers just cover up everything even if they deserve to be shamed. Also, the education system is terrible. The students are learning nothing at all and it is a waste of money. The school environment is also very dirty, the buildings are very old, and it is very bad for people with asthma or dust mite allergies. Worst of all, the bullies really just sweet talk the teachers and staff to cover up their wrong doings, definitely wont recommend coming to this school
