How we work these numbers out
  • Order. “Best match” puts schools where your exact word comes up first. “Most talked about” uses the share of reviews that mention it. Neither is a ranking of how good a school is.
  • Comes up in X% of reviews is the share of the school's reviews that mention your search. The Brisbane average is the same share across all Brisbane schools.
  • Speak well, mixed or raise concerns is worked out by software, using only the sentences about your search. It's right most of the time but not always, so read what people said.
  • What students did comes from the sports and activities former students ticked in their review. We show it when at least 3 answered.
  • Evidence is strong when 5 or more of at least 10 reviews mention it, some when 2 or more people do, and thin when only one person does.
  • Facts such as fees, ATAR and enrolments come from each school's own documents. Fees cover different year levels at different schools, so compare carefully.
  • Open Day Reflections come from our visits to 2026 open days. They're useful, but they reflect the school's own voice.

    Review Getting extra help

    There were weekly after school tutoring sessions run by the school, mostly for maths but I think there was english as well. If you were struggling you were expected to go to those, otherwise the main solution was to drop down a level into essential classes.

    Review Would you recommend it?

    Academically, craigslea is decent as they are very supporting and incase they find that someone is struggling in a class they give out extra help classes and it was optional for other students are completely free. I used to attend these just to get the extra help. My overall experience is good, I made a lot of friends. My brother who is disabled attended that school and he got so much support from that school. So yes, I recommend this school

Reviews come from parents and former students whose link to the school we've checked. Open Day Reflections come from our recordings at 2026 open days. Words in [brackets] were unclear, and […] marks a skipped part. They reflect the school's own voice, so read them alongside the reviews. How reviews work
