"Some positives, some areas for improvement"

We have been generally happy with Philips High School, but there are a few areas that we feel could be improved. The facilities are excellent and the teachers are generally supportive, but we have found the communication with parents to be sometimes lacking. We also feel that the school could do more to engage with parents and involve them in the decision-making process. That being said, we do feel that our child is receiving a good education and we appreciate the school's emphasis on academic achievement.

"Outstanding school with wonderful staff"

We have been so impressed with Philips High School since our daughter joined in Year 7. The facilities are first class and the teachers are supportive and enthusiastic. We particularly love the STAR values that the school promotes, which are reflected in the way the children behave and interact with each other. We feel so lucky to have found this school and would highly recommend it to anyone.

"Excellent education and caring community"

We had our children at Philips High School from 2018 to 2022 and were consistently impressed with the education they received. The teachers were knowledgeable and engaging, and the school's emphasis on independent learning helped our children develop valuable skills. We also appreciated the school's commitment to inclusivity and the ways in which they supported our children's individual needs. We would highly recommend Philips High School to any family.
