Hello everyone;

tl;dr - if you have a complaint about Independent schools in Shepparton, please send it to acecomplaints7@gmail.

Long post below;

I am writing on this board to talk about Independent schools in Shepparton.

A lot of people have had significant trouble with this school that they've been unable to do anything about for the following reasons;

- The Department of Education does not oversee Independent Schools.

- The Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority ONLY audits policies and procedures of schools. It does not act as a disciplinary body if all the paperwork is in order, persay.

- Independent Schools Victoria is not a disciplinary body, either.

- Complaints via public channels such as Google Reviews, Facebook posts or attempts at press reporting get quickly squashed down for threats of litigation and lawsuits.

Therefore, I am attempting to collect stories in order to try and find a way to share it publicly so that people can hear the truth about what this school is doing.

Common questions I have received are:

1) Why do I need stories other than my own?

Because I am only one voice. More voices, more power, and everyone deserves to have their story told.

2) Why am I doing this?

Because everyone has been shut down thoroughly by the school silencing students and parents both whenever anyone tries to do anything.

3) What will you do with the stories given?

Send them to the press to try and get someone to write a story about this school and spread awareness so that SOMEONE does SOMETHING about it, because no one is.

If you have a story about an independent school you'd like to share, please send an email to acecomplaints7@gmail.com with a name and phone number. If you'd prefer not to share that, an email to contact you best on would suffice (so send it from one you check).

The journalists have said that privacy is paramount. All names of people will be changed and no stories will be shared without the express consent of the people sending them in, hence the need for a phone number.

I ask everyone to please take this post seriously, and please understand that this post is in fact a last resort, not a first one. I have done everything I possibly can to try and bring my own story to the eyes of any authority, and I have been told "we can't help you." The police have done everything they can, also, but this is bigger than them.

Thank you for reading.
