Insider Pages Reviews for Challenger School
The school proved to be a good start for my son to get socalized and learn the basic education. Mostly the phonics that they teach is excellant. Compare to what your child is getting the fees is economical. Only thing is that the half day school is just for two and half hour. I wish it should be atleast 4-5 hours.

Challenger Harwood - If you value diversity and equity - think again!
by niconnor
Challenger- Harwood campus - very homogenous community, where children who are not Indian or Asian are blatantly not welcomed. In fact, I was told that the school was not equipped for caucasian boys are teachers are not used to their energy. Used to smaller, more docile children. Director admitted to me that my son's ethnicity, gender and size made him not a good fit for Challenger......I have never been so appalled and I have my Masters in Education, to find blatant racism by a Pre-school of all things!!!
Pros: car line
Cons: lack of diversity within staff, teacher and student body resulting in blatant intolerance.
