    Safeguarding Nightmare

    As another has recently mentioned, the new principal is taking things downhill fast. Most recently with an idea that banning parents from coming into the school grounds to drop off their children in the morning will somehow make the school safer and help all the children feel ‘calm’. This is from age 4 and they will all be left to find their way to class alone amongst hundreds of older children. No registration at the gate so no one will know which children are there until they, hopefully, make...

    Not what it's cracked up to be

    All they care about is getting their results up, there is so much pressure on the staff, there's low morale and there is not an adequate provision for send children.

    Former pupil.

    My child was made to feel it was there fault that they didn't have the staff for the SEN department. They sat outside all winter because they had no staff or the means for them to access the sensory room, when I said something I was told they don't have the staff or the funds. The SEN department Person is also a teacher and doesn't have time for these children so there not properly taught or cared for. Avantie was supposed to arrange a transition to the new school. We never got it. She is now...
