Don't send your child there

Some teachers are nice most are just rude they don't give us all the text books we the classes are so small. They don't follow most of the covid 19 regulations. The class rooms are in bad state. Learners are so rude teachers don't do anything about the bully at the school

Stop Discrimination!

Positves:
Education is good. Most teachers are very friendly and eager to pass knowledge onto their students. Safe environment.

Negatives:
Discrimination against genders(e.g allowing only female students to wear earrings) and cultures/religion (e.g Not allowing dreadlocks). Most teachers and staff turn a blind eye to these types of discrimation because it doesn't seem "important". I believe that discrimination whether it is giving one gender a privilege as small as being able to wear earring is still discrimination and wrong. Dreadlocks are a part of the Rastafarian religion and should be allowed to be worn whether or not it looks 'descent'.
Also, Certain staff are very mean and disrespectful toward students. Gangsterism and discipline is also a slight problem.

My only problem is the outdated code of conduct. Its the 21st century either give or deny students these privileges.

Teachers and Fundraising events

This school has some excellent teachers who really try their best to push students to reach their potential. The teachers give emotional support to students as well. Fundraising events are safe and fun,memorable for students.

Goodwood college is for "everyone"

Goodwood College is just as other schools, there are learners that are a bit out of hand but that does not mean that the school is bad.
To be honest the school is great and as a student we do have fun times in class but when it comes to academics we listen and do our work as expected by the teachers.
During the year we have functions that are fun and some that teach us a lesson.
So do not rate the school bad.
Goodwood college is a school for each student and any student from a different race.
