WRONG A liberal education is a wide range of subjects to broaden the scope of a pupil s learning It is not going there are 1 306 313 812 not 1 306 313 811 people in China as we were told It is expected in a school of the quality of Grammar that the information provided is factually correct and up to date There should be no need for students to have to question whether the information is accurate If there is a need of that students would be better off going to a state school instead of forking out 12 500 in school fees for the already over payed staff I refuse to simply say that grammar is a top school in queensland if it conveniently avoids its detriments instead of facing them and trying to solve them at least they can stop lying about the range of subjects which they teach I refuse to accept lies Liberal education means a large number of subjects not validity of information I agree with the above post in full I would disagree A liberal education means that it isn t limited by traditionalistic dogma or orthodoxy such as the liberal policy in the Liberal Parties that appear in politics It may mean that the school takes a liberal approach to the education it offers and encourages the students to question established opinions not facts I can not comment on the manner in which the subjects are taught at BGS but I wouldn t base conclusions on data that is irrelevant ie the number of subjects In fact a narrower range of subjects is actually more liberal for each individual student as long as the subjects are more general eg history geography english science maths With a plethora of highly specific subjects students tend to specialise and ignore all the other areas of study leading to narrow mindedness Hence without more data you have no grounds to dispute the statement User 138 130 220 222 the world is not black and white Headhunter did not mean when the teacher says something students argue as to the authenticity of the statement As said it s rather expressing their opinion in a welcoming fashion rather than the curriculum s view The school doesn t focus purely on learning information to be tested on Although testing is important the idea of questioning given information allows the student to fully understand the topic not just for the benefit of getting good grades but to actually learn about the topic not just memorising dates The attention to detail in grammars confined curriculum is what places it as one of the Top schools in Queensland Your basis for argument is that the school should focus on quantity rather than quality Why are people still coming back to the school Get your facts right and stop posting blatently un supported speculative dribble Sexual Scandal The school was involved in a sex scandal with a male teacher a few years back It was announced at a speech night of the school in which the headmaster gave the damning address It vaguely told of the incident but was rather ambiguous and non direct Wikipedia is about truth is it not Should this not be the aim of wikipedia as I see it this article tells only the side of the school which is positive and all happy go happy I think that all must be revealed Please don t delete my addition to the article There is no written record of the incident because obviously the school does not want to publicise the scandal to the community I belive that all should be told on this website If i must I will use this gathering of the school this speech night as the source from which I derived this damning information I would like to add that users that remove my addition to this page can and will be reported for vandalism as I am not fabricating untruths and I am not infringing upon wikipedian guidelines Vandalism is something I detest and I will not hesitate to report it It is a disgusting act and will not be tolerated Hi please do not make threats Your contributions are original research so they can not stay Thanks The issue may have some truth at the crux of it but the presentation of the article is extremly one sided and questionable For instance why would students who do nt go to the school any more come forward with accusations after the man has stopped working at the school and committed suicide May i also point out that although he was convicted of molestation although he worked at the school for a number of years there is no solid evidence to prove he conducted vial and sexual acts spesifically at brisbane g
