    Burnt out school kids

    My child doesnt like this school at all . Year 8 now. Teachers are strict and not approachable, it causes high anxiety and mental stress. Blue coat need things to change. Stop detentions , only give for fighting etc not forgeting equipment. Or homework. Help with homework, ask do u need support?.

    decent

    it wasn’t the worst, it never felt ‘safe’ and the way year leaders deal with issues needs a lot of improvement. not many teachers care about the well being of their students.

    ok i guess

    Care way too much about things that literally dont matter like haircuts and gum and not enough about issues like mental health and students not feeling well
