The concept of Manea is wonderful the staff are all so friendly and they really treat their students like adults. It is part of the adult learning environment where as you take responsibility for your own learning. Since Manea opened they have had a massive influx of students from all over the south west. Although they don't offer every subject the facilities are nearby (such as the sports centre and drama studio) Staff are easy to deal with and I found that the school term ran so much smoother! Definitely recommend to anyone thinking of changing schools it is so much more grown up. they don't care about the colour of your hair or how high your socks are as so many other schools do. With tafe and ecu next door it is the perfect location. Also flexible on fees and you get to choose your own courses.
