not a good school, the teachers have became stricter and stricter each year about uniform policy which doesn’t make sense why. Getting students in trouble for little things such as wearing converses,hightop shoes, or even having multiple natural hair colours in their hair, this school cares more about their reputation than anything else. This school has also been racist to many black students as a couple years ago they got black boys in trouble for having braids in their hair as its “ not presentable” also getting the girls in trouble if they dont dye their hair to match their braids which is so strange as many girls constantly dye their hair and don’t get in trouble but then they get the black students in trouble. and not to forget the principal even has said the n word infront of an entire year group, I advise you to not send your children here as they don’t even care about your education but how the school is viewed. The classrooms are dirty and mouldy and the assistant principal shouldn’t have his position still

This school has really improved over the years ive been here, from taking care of wellbeing whether it'd be and school or even out school such as home and even grades with the learning centre being open during wednesdays after school to get help from certain teacher according to the subject. The teachers are pretty cool and so is the way they teach and so is the school events such as CAN and Unity Day. But somethings i dont really like is the school classrooms, they usually have gum on the chairs or even under the table, i fully understand that the school isnt responsible for this and cant really prevent it, but maybe atleast some cleaning of some sort on the weekends would be a bit nice, but i do see where they come from as hiring cleaners may be a bit pricey. Additionally, the way they teach japanese at this school, i feel like it is too slow and we can learn way more if we structure it differently. And last canteen prices, i personally feel like the canteen is way overprices, a can of a soft drink for $2.50 when you can probably get a 1.1L for $2, but anyway:

Overall 4/5 stars

Went to an interview for my son’s year seven enrolment. Haven't heard back from the school. The classroom looked very run down. Some of the hallways smelt really bad. Even if my son had been accepted, i wouldn’t have sent him there. I think some public schools are better. The teachers were kind of strange and new.

This school honestly isn’t even deserved a 1 star. My time at that school has not helped me one bit. I’ve learned more when I left over the 4 years I was there. They care about uniform, the shape of ur hair, the accessories you have one or how good you can look more then the mental stability of each individual. They’re not supportive in any way shape or form yet will tell parents “don’t have any hopes for your child” or telling you straight to your face to drop out rather then getting you the support you need to be successful. These words came out of the mouth of Mr Houseman, a year 11 well being learning leader. They care about the reputation of the school and sucking the money out of parents. No matter how smart or successful you may think your child is, never send your child to an unstable, unsupported school like this. Definitely don’t recommend! Do better parents and look more into research of schools for your child.

TO ALL FATHERS!!!!!!!!!!!
you may think tis school is a good place for your daughters but you would be wrong as a student myself I have witnessed the dark side of this school, this school has covered up countless incidents of sexual, physical and verbal assault caused by certain students including instances of year tens hitting on year sevens this schools top priority is its image and not the safety of its students or the mental stability of the kids do not be mistaken SOME of the staff are amazing people who have your child's best interests at heart but unfortunately the people who sign their paychecks and the other 70% of the staff are not and can ruin your schooling experience.

Schools education is fairly good and would recommend coming here, but the well-being they offer isnt great. They don’t necessarily take the students issues and problem seriously, eg bullying.

But other then that they are pretty good

Pretty bad actually. The staff and teachers there treat you as if you were little children, especially when it comes to education. This school is too focused on the concepts of religion, even for a catholic school. The school fees are also not worth it for the amount of consideration your dealing with very well including education. The system in Saint Andrews College lacks compared to other schools. As I used to be a student myself, transferring to Wyndham College was probably the best choice because of how I was actually treated. Saint Andrews In other words, expects too much out of you, not fully grasping the importance of education to its extent, where as other schools like Wyndham College, treat you like adults and let you progress at your own pace. Even if you are looking to send your kids to the nearest high school, I strongly recommend you don't send them here and instead, consider other schools like Quakers Hill High, Patrician Brothers etc. ★★☆☆☆
