Substandard. Unsure of the source but much help required.

Honestly, maybe the school just isn't for me and maybe I'm just looking for something greater, but there is nothing the school offers that makes me want to get out of bed in the morning. With peers, it's an odd situation. The only time I've found myself around people who don't mess around with their work and are genuine is when I was with the IB kids. Now that I've "moved down," it's like no one gets it. "Oh, just use A.I. for this," and "bro wdym I've failed this," and "bro no one knows how to do this essay." Mind you, it was a simple five paragraph essay. Of course, not all the students are like this (stay in Honors or above for your own sanity). Other than that, the students here aren't exactly "top notch" if that's what you're hoping for.Maybe, just maybe they really are putting in effort, but sometimes with how they act, it's so hard to feel bad for them. Some (heavy emphasis on the some) teachers are way too nice and students don't deserve them. I can see why no one wants to teach or look after them. Honestly though, not all of them are too bad. There is some* sense of community, but its based on the fact that no one wants to be at that school and that the school sucks.Anyway, this is simply my opinion, and others could say otherwise. Is the school great? Not one bit, but it's definitely an experience. I guess it depends on who you are, I suppose.

Love Portlock Primary! The teachers seem to really love what they do and support their students. They also communicate great with parents and keep us involved. Thank you for being amazing Portlock Primary. I know my child is safe there always!
