Terrible school
Terrible school! I’ve had 5 children that went here and the last two I have pulled out to home educate. No support for children with additional needs or Sen. Ehcp money spent on other things than its intended for and then they try and cover it up. The head teacher never takes any responsibility for his staff when they are in the wrong and true to cover things up. Constant suspensions and daily calls saying my child needed to come home. When I’ve made complaints they are brushed under the ca...

Avoid chipping norton school
Chipping.norton school is one of the worst schools i have ever known they don't support or help SEN children they would rather suspend the child then help or support the child they don't take and accountability of their lack of respect towards children or how they make the children feel scared and intimidated by teachers and TA's, the school will suspend a child if they are not learning or if the child can't do the work to the schools standards, the teachers will lie so that the child will get r...

They have priorities wrong
No communication, ignored emails etc Priorities are all wrong. Too much emphasis on school uniform to the point of being ridiculously picky but bad behaviour ignored. Far too much emphasis on sexual/gender labels and certain children getting preferential treatment purely based on their sexuality etc My child is fed up with hearing about it now. Stop dividing your pupils into categories and treat them all the same. Your rules should apply to everyone regardless!!

Parent telling the truth
KEEP AWAY FROM THIS SCHOOL They leave my daughter in the hallway on her own with people walking past having a panic attack. When my son gets bullied the school do nothing about it but when he stands of for himself they put my son in Lts. Also they told my daughter when she was having a panic attack to stop being stupid if she doesn't get into lesson or stop having a panic attack she will get Lts. Punishing someone with mental health issues don't help the problem. The head teacher thinks he is al...

Regret sending my child here
My eldest child attended with her GCSE year being in 2020 and I would have removed her and changed school in year 8 if she had not insisted on staying. Terrible communication -child has SEN and heard from the SEN lead once in year 7 and then never again despite countless emails and calls. Inadequate teaching, inaccurate school reports (we once attended parents evening where the English teacher had no knowledge of child's SEN and another when I was given the report of another pupil entirely and had to correct the teacher). I have sent my younger child to another school which is world's apart from the shambles that is Chipping Norton -the difference is incredible.

don't recommend
Teachers aren't supportive, too much pressure, other students are perfect whereas some get away with being racist, homophobic, sexist, etc.

Chipping Norton School
Pretty sexist, boys and girls have to play different sports (like literal different sports, not even just separating the two sexes), girls are criticised on every little thing wrong with their uniform while boys get away with the lot, etc. Foods good sometimes, awful others, like soggy pasta when stuff ?
