    Racist school

    This school tolerates racism! Someone was being racist towards me and when I told a member of staff, I was the one who went to isolation for 2 weeks. My teacher came in my tutor room and had said, go to isolation and I couldn’t take it anymore. I snapped and walked out and this is when they want to resolve the situation, after 2 weeks. My head of year didn’t even read my statement that I wrote 2 times and was called a liar and my paper got torn in half because I’m Asian and Muslim. It’s disgusti...

    I hate this place.

    If they put enough effort into mental health and the students wellbeing the school would be alright. But if you like constantly being told how crap you are at everything, this school is for you. That and they don't cook their meat. It's raw, don't eat it.

    It sucked

    I was SA'd in the back of my science classroom in year 7. I reported it to my head of year and she did nothing. I was also alienated because I'm Autistic

    Corrupt and Unjust

    awful school. the headteacher openly discriminates against people with special needs and victims of bullies. they hide serious allegations under the rug to save their “reputation”, with the safety of the school being as good as an unlocked house in a dangerous area. I personally have been a victim of the bullying headteacher, who feigns kindness in order to gaslight vulnerable students. i pray nobody has the misfortune of going to this school.

    Not a great school

    It’s not bad but the teachers don’t do anything about people mental health like the only do things that are really bad and just take it to the police or like that and they only think about the victims and not the whole story.the teachers also don’t care about what is going on in the lessons like I get so much shit in lessons and the teachers don’t do anything about it and it’s pointless trying to tell an adult like they tell you too cos they don’t do anything about it like I have been waiting for months to get my support put in place they just don’t care about the students like they say they do

    A great school all round.

    The school is very welcoming and makes new students joining feel very at home. The teachers are supportive of students achieving their full potential, and being a student here is a wonderful experience. Bullying is very minimal and even then handled very well. Misbehaving is present here and there, but the leadership team are on hand to control it so that it does not negatively impact other students and their learning. The school's previous negative reputation certainly no longer applies, and I...
