    Toxic environment & rude teachers

    The worst school I have genuinely been to. Ever. The racism is next level, the perverted male teachers are nauseating and the staff is very toxic. This school is terrible and don’t even get me started on the hostels. The food they serve has the nutritional value of a sock and you really can tell the teachers are only there for a paycheck. Take it from someone who’s been in the school, don’t waste your time because their systems will never change. The school only cares about white, popular and ri...

    Save yourself

    Please do NOT send your child here. Every single negative review you read and hear is very accurate. This is a terrible learning environment especially for black learners

    They don't care about us

    The school is beautiful and everything but it's almost like they don't care about us students I just started high school I still don't feel welcome the only things this school cares about is good reviews and their profile and status they want to be number 1 in a test or an exam most of the questions is stuff we didn't learn about

    Review from a current learner of the school

    I won't lie I like thus school it's nice and everything but there is a lot of racism in this school what I do not like is that In our test papers or exam papers 70% of it is nothing we learned about in class I feel like we don't get taught enough and what I feel is that this school only cares about their profile and status the y want to be the best,the biggest and most beautiful they succeeded in all that but failed in educating us From.A Learner that is currently in the school

    What nobody talks about.

    Yelled at the students for showing their parents what's written on the bathroom walls. We only wanted the words to be removed. One of the biology teachers called me stupid infront of the entire exam room for drawing a heart the correct way after she gave us a wrong drawing of a heart. They do not care about the students. They just want good reviews.

    Yikes, Next Level Racism

    Looking from the outside in I was intrigued by the strong morals and constant activity. But after having attended HBV since grade 8 not once did I feel welcomed and accepted by the educators most of which are quiet prejudice towards black students. Very racist would not recommend, and it’s next level racism because there is zero diversity in the staff which then allows for most of the racism to go on unreprimanded its sickening and degrading to the black learners.. it also allows for the Afrika...
