Unsatisfactory Experiences
The reviews gathered here paint a picture of a school that falls short in several areas. Lack of Hygiene is a major concern, with one reviewer, Little T., stating that the school was not very hygienic. This, combined with Poor Teaching, has left students failed and unprepared for further education.
Ineffective Education
The reviews suggest that the school's education system is in need of improvement. Both Little T. and Bahoz M. express their discontent with the school's teaching, with Little T. specifically stating that the teaching wasn't very good. Bahoz M. takes it a step further by mentioning that some students from the school have failed, implying that the education system is ineffective.
