Belvidere School

This school is a shit hole dont send your kids here it’s awful teachers are full of shit and have no control!

shit, almost all male teachers wink at u, odd, overall shit,

if i did not drop out of this school, i would be dead, I'm not exaggerating here. sure this school is fine for strait, white, mentally ok males. but anyone else and your pretty much done for. i only knew of two teachers that cared about me wanting to k*** myself. the amount of bullying and harassment is appalling and even if you just want a small bit of support, you wont get it. if your problems are just the simple “oh my friend said something mean” and you can get over it within a day, then the pastoral team is great, because they don't actually care or know how to deal with actual problems students face. as for classes, you wont learn anything, or get help, most you can do is study by yourself and hope you’re good enough. one of the only reasons i'm still alive is purely because i had to be the mental support for my friend group, i couldn't get through the rest of school in that hell hole. i recommend only going to that school if its the ONLY choice you have left.

A very bad school, wouldn't recommend anyone to attend

Horrible school the teachers say stuff about you but as soon as you say something back you get a detention. They overwork you with homework that almost seems endless I understand the reason for homework but they simply give you way too much. From my own experience I have had rocks thrown at me and my friends the teacher stood there and watched. I used to feel ill worrying about what I would have to face the next day at school I even went through a point where I was staying up till 5 worrying. I have anxiety now because of it whenever I'm bullied I feel like I have no one to tell since I know that the teachers won't do anything.

Terrible, they don't do anything about bullying the teachers always seem miserable and like they are only there for money. They couldn't care less about students mental health. Some of the teachers are ok but most are ignorant about overworking students. If you are considering taking your child here then think again. Overall if I could choose I wouldn't be here

This school feels more like a business. This school was going downhill before covid but when that all kicked off it went completely off the rails. The lessons are average and most of the time are completely ruined by people interrupting or just being idiots. The problem here is that the lessons stop and we have to wait until the room is silent for the lesson to continue. Most teachers however are very easy to get along with but there are many that no longer have the time of day for you. Some of them pick and choose who they will be friendly with and who they wont. I have first hand experience of this with parts of the pastoral care. This school feels like a bad environment and is very run down. It feels like all the staff here have given up on the school and are just there for the money. Personally, it feels like the only reason they carry on is to make money whilst students sit there and watch. I cant wait to be out of this school and it will be a big relief when I do. Please if you are considering this school as an option for your child, dont bother with this one.

My friend got a chair thrown at her by another student from the other side of the zone. It went about 30 feet up in the air, before hitting her on the back. The headteacher was supposed to be on duty, but she wasn't there. Even after we went and told some of the staff, nothing was done.

right. there three groups of people in each year. 1.homophobic cis straight men. 2.supportive cis people 3.cis gays, trans gays. GAY THIS SCHOOL IS OK BUT THE AMOUNT OF HOMOPHOBIA I SUFFER ON A DAILY BASIS IS TERRIBLE. THEY DONT CARE ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH EITHER.

Most teachers are good, but the support is severely lacking, and the behaviour is only getting worse. There is constant bullying that goes unnoticed and if it is noticed it is often ignored.

the amount of racism, homophobia and prejudice that goes on in this school is disgusting. go somewhere else haha.

Good when coming to learning but needs more when coming to bullying arguments and people who needs help to get it

an amazing pastoral team always there to help amazing opportunities with sport and class work
