No response to a concern parent

Very bad experience with getting a hearing and never getting a meeting scheduled with the principal it stop by their secretary because c always wants to no first what the issue is about n then she say they will come back to the parent and they never do unless it's a bad thing about the child (then it isn't even such a big thing like they make it out to be),only then they will get in touch with you as a parent to complain but u can never get their attention when you as a parent have a issue with one of the teachers,children bring fire arms to school then they keep quiet and nothing is being done to that kids they only get a warning

Principle scared to see parents at Spine road high

The most horrible school since the new principle took over,can never see the principle even when making an appointment,they are always busy or in a meeting.Secretary thinks she owns the school. Principle and vice principle is scared to see the parents.Nobody ever comes back to the parents.

Former Student of Spine Road High

The school is great if you want to achieve academic success and really become a confident person. However, sometimes academics take priority over building a welcoming and familial atmosphere where everyone truly cares about each other. Teachers are phenomenal and truly love what they do. The school sometimes does also not spend enough on the students. The students need to fundraiser for thing on their own and it can be a struggle. But overall, my experience was wonderful.

Uniform

The school is OK just I wish they would allow girls to wear long grey pants during winter because why should we get cold, I mean the boys are just fine while we must shiver with a skirt or dress on, does that even make sense at all?

Horrible school

This school is extremely homophobic and sexist and racist I'm honestly so glad I'm done with spine road. They treat you like shit when your parents aren't around but treat you like a human when they are

Spine Road High is tops!

I am a grade 12 learner at Spine Road Highschool. Throughout my years at the school, i have experienced alot. My school has taught me that circumstances does not determine who you are or where you end up. Our school offers many opportunities for us to do something good whether academically or with our sporting codes because many of the learners are disadvantaged and come from areas where there aren't any opportunities. Our teachers put in alot of effort to make sure that we do well even though we take it for granted sometimes. We might talk bad about the school rules but deep down we know its for our own benefit because they only want whats best for us.Our uniform teaches us discipline because at other schools casual clothes are allowed making the learners looking untidy. Over the years Spine Road High has produced many successful students and has played a major role during the apartheid regime when the students of the school fought for our rights.Spine Road Highschool for me is and will always be tops✌

My school always improves every year

Im a grade12 learner at spine road high and through all my years attending spine road its a productive school and always makes the learners the main priority.They are in the process of turning that school around and making it one of the best schools in our area.
