Angry parents of boys at an elite Melbourne college have launched a petition to try to stop a change in class times, labelling it “irresponsible”. On Monday, parents of students at Scotch College in Hawthorn launched the change.org petition, claiming school principal Scott Marsh proposed classes end at 1.50pm one day each week to accommodate “on-the-job staff training”. “This change would adversely affect students, parents, and caregivers.
“As aptly described by another fellow signer, this is a breathtakingly arrogant move,” one disgruntled parent commented on the petition. Marsh told 7NEWS.com.au in a statement the proposed changes for the 2025 timetable were still going through “consultation with the community”. He said the afternoon on which the school day would finish at 1.50pm may include an activities program that would end at 3.15pm. It is unclear if that program would be mandatory for students.
