Livingstone high
I was SCAMMED
Racist
The school is very racist they only want coloured children if you are black or white you are a problem they don't even have any white children there
The teacher do the bare minimum
And if you are not smart then they don't want to teach you and if you don't understand then they tell you that's your own problem or they shout you

I don't understand how this school is still open
I'm currently still at the "school" I'm a senior in the school.
This school should honestly not be open
The way they handle situations that happens inside of school or outside is so poor even the way the delt with the lockdown and online school was so poor I honestly dont know how majority of us passed to gr12 that's how shity their system is.
There are really only 6 genuinely good teachers in the school that actually want to see students grow and become something all the other teachers just teach to get the class over and the others keep them all high and mighty
And there are teachers I wont mentioned names that will favor the one gender over the other no matter what stepping into one that teachers class is a nightmare. If I ever have kids I wont even let them use Livingstone as a safety school to get in I'm sorry but this school is not up to a good standard the new principal that was brought in is actually genuine and is really trying to fix the school but I think Livingstone is to far gone to be safed

Downfall of Livingstone
What a terrible school!!! This is honestly the worst school😡they don’t provide kids with proper basic needs and the classrooms, don’t even get me started on those it’s just so bad. The teachers keep on leaving and the ‘some how’ the funds raised in fundraisers just disappear. This is honestly the worst school in Claremont. Would not recommend to send any kids there.
Great school
I’ve been at livingstone for only 4 years and by far it has been one of my greatest years at this school. There were good and tough times and I can honestly say I’ve been satisfied with the staff and the students.
Good
Really good school even with its struggles you learn more and most importantly student support eachother even when teachers dont but they do try ,our spirits are still high and we make the most of it
A school that doesn't really care much.
My schooling experience was borderline horrible. There were a few lovely teachers that would make you feel safe and heard but the rest only cared about whether you're smart or if you have money to give the school, otherwise you'd be trash in their eyes. They care more about the reputation of the school than the students.
Review
Didnt have the best experience. Although teachers try their best to discipline learners , theres still a lack of discipline.
Not good
not good, focused too much on academics and the governing body steals and locks the money made by the students, teachers do not teach well and blames the students

I am currently a learner at Livingstone. The school has a no bullying policy but i have been bulied and witnessed bulling. The school always speaks highly of itself because of its past, but it should be worried about its present and future. When i applied to the school i was excited because of all the sports and activities the school had claimed to have. IT WAS ALL A LIE. Well at least now it is. We cannot even play any sports during breaks because of someones anger issues and some of the sports the school said they have...the don't. I was trapped...i thought Livingstone was a nice school...i just wish they were more honest in the beginning so i would have chosen a better school.
