Ponsonby Intermediate School

don’t recommend this school. their social science teacher is literally so strict and doesn’t help on students. she should be calm and easy to students but the teaching she does is a big no for me, bad service and poor teaching skills, if ur trying to send your kid to this school, i dont recommend

If i could give this school a lower rating, i would. The teaching was fine, but the school itself has done me irreparable psychological damage. I was constantly scared of bullies - they have a no bullying tolerance policy, but what i saw was senior leadership turning a blind eye to every single instance of bullying, as long as the kid was too afraid to speak up. I was constantly afraid, anxious, degraded and taught to view myself as unworthy. Parents, don't send your kids here, but if you do, don't be surprised when they retract in on themselves and you never see them again. This school has no place for anyone interested in art- just sports and discipline. If anything, this school is an amazing example of how backwards and outdated the punitive system is - it didn't result in any prevention of bad behaviour, and rather just made the teachers constantly tired and the students constantly afraid. My most vivid memory from this school is tripping over and having a guy turn around and laugh at me. Your child will be crushed if they come here. I hope the whole place burns down.

This school is hands down the worst school in Auckland,Not only is there teaching bad.But the school has no policy on bullying for evidence check the countless videos online. seriously if you want your child to make it through school without being bullied by there student and teachers go some where else.

This school is wonderful. The teachers and kids are all so kind. They also do really cool activities making school super fun for the kiddos.

I went today to get my childs uniform and when we went in the bathroom to change, we saw dead mosquitoes and bugs and a huge cockroache just lying there dead, my daughter is terrified of bugs and she saw it in the BATHROOM, I wonder how kids in that school go to the bathroom with all those dead and gross bugs and the stinky bathroom !!
