Honest Review
As a parent, I am honestly disappointed with the way the school is being managed and the lack of consideration given to learners and their families. A school should not only focus on academics; it should also support its learners, communicate properly with parents, and make sure important events are organized well in advance. What concerns me most is how the matric learners are being treated. This is such an important and stressful year for them, yet it often feels like they are not being priori...

Disappointed!
As a parent of a Grade 12 learner, I understand that academics should always come first and that matric students need to focus on their studies. However, that does not mean they should be denied the opportunity to enjoy the special moments that come with their final year of school. It is unacceptable how delayed everything has been, from the matric jackets to the matric camp. These are memories that students will never get back, and poor planning has taken away from what should have been an exci...

Fed up
All I have to say is... bad absolutely bad my child has had the worse experience at this school, children face so much racism and it is never addressed, children are always getting belittled under the pretense of uplifting them. children are called disrespectful or rude when they stand up for themselves, children are not able to be themselves because people at the school(not students) call them stupid or tell them school is not for them and when it comes to the matrics... let's not even go there...

Poor behaviour from Grassdale
If I could give this a zero I would. when my child first started at the school they really seemed to like it and they always mentioned how they can't wait to be in matric. they always spoke so highly of this school, but now my child has reached matric and there is nothing nice that they can say about it all they can say is: 1. No camp 2. No jacket 3. No fun things that matric should do 4. Principal constantly shouting and belittling them during "connect sessions" my child tells me how when ever they go ask about their jackets they keep telling them tomorrow, tomorrow or they are busy getting embroidered but then come the next day the staff has it. so Grassdale high school is the staff more important than our learners??? its almost the end of winter and its almost the start of term 4 but we still have not received any dates about our learners matric ball. how can we plan if we have no dates. I really enjoyed the previous years where my child would come back from the outing and talk about how nice it is but now nothing

Grassdale is known for excellence, but unfortunately, the school’s standards have declined tremendously. As a parent, it is deeply disappointing to witness, and I honestly cannot wait for my Grade 12 child to finish at Grassdale. Grade 12 learners are still waiting for their jackets with less than four months left of the school year. Every time parents and learners enquire, we are told that they are “coming tomorrow.” This level of poor planning and communication is unacceptable. The principal c...

The school has changed for the worse, the teachers are way to comfortable with their students, the way they act and speak to like they are friends, and are teachers allowed to post their kids on social media and give out their personal phone numbers, This I getting out of hand and it's concerning.
