    Some good teachers in Maths department and Business and economics department. They supported the student academically and pastorally well. However, some people worked in the kitchen are extremely rude to students and some boarding staffs are rude to students. The quality of school food is under expectation with the amount of school fee. The facilities in senior boy boarding house is too old as there has been some issues such as no hot water for showering and heaters are not working. The school also got high percentage of labour turnover. I personally think this is because the senior management used to put lots of pressure on them and they became demotivated. The Sports facilities are outstanding particularly the water base for hockey. The sport coach will try their best to discover your talent. Lacking of leisure activities for boarders.... I studied there for 6 years and I found the Ramsgate town is dull and can be dangerous at some point.....

    I went to the school in the mid 90s as a boarder and had a great time there. Now, St Lawrence College has a new academic deputy, who just joined from Kings Canterbury. The school is thriving: student numbers have grown to almost 650 total, several new large super modern buildings have been added over the last few years incl. a top notch hockey pitch up at the sports grounds, currently considered the best in Kent. A club house is also under construction. The girls 1st 11 are currently national champions!

    I taught Year One class at this college. The class was originally 16 children but 3 more came up to my class from the Reception class. The children could move up to the next class when they were considered ready to do so. The pupils could also be placed in an older class, if they are very able or stay in their class longer, if they are not yet ready to move up. They could also be placed in a younger class, if they are not ready to join their own peer group. Each child is treated with respect and as an individual, hence the consideration of each of their needs, according to the teachers and the parents. Class sizes only go up to 19, once there are 20 children of the same age, they will be split into two classes of 10 each. They are not only taught academically but also to be good team players, be diligent and self-motivated. They are expected to be polite and respectful to the staff and each other at all times, on the grounds and off, (when on town leave for the boarders). The college has a wide range of subjects from an early age, including different languages, numerous sports and music. The school performs many plays and musicals. Students may also have group or private lessons if required. The school takes pupils from 3 to 18 years old. There are children from the forces here, hence the army, navy and air cadets, where they learn specialised skills, such as rifle shooting and orientation on hikes and at camps. The pupils learn to be good citizens through The Duke of Edinburgh Awards, from bronze to gold. They are entered early (Year 10), for some GCSEs and take more the next year, Year 11). AS is in Year 12 and A levels in Year 13. Most then go on to a university of their choice at 18 years old. My son also attended the college.
