Don't go here EVER
This is the worst school I've ever been too, mental health is just forgotten, the teachers will treat you like shit and the rules are stupid, this school has literally taken a huge toll on my mental health and has repeatedly caused issues for me, there is barely any variety for GCSE and there is no room to grow and get better at things because of how bad and strict most teachers are

Awful school
Unsafe environment for all students my daughter struggles really bad with mental health and she asked for help to the teachers(the teachers are anything but help) and they sent her to a room for two hours by her self with no adult supervision. A teacher named Jenifer butler,awful teacher. she swears at all students and picks on my daughter. I am concerned this is not a safe environment for all students so please think twice before sending your child here

Appalling
Appalling absolutely appalling . Some of the staff are nice but most are awful. My child have been called a collection of names and one of the teachers there has been grabbing children and dragging them around. I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone at all. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE

• There are safe guarding issues due to there being a lack of students being aloud to go to the toilet during lesson even when desperate, some toilets don’t even have locks. • Teachers do bag searches without consent and without a good enough reason. • Not being able to speak your mind without being told your wrong or being ignored.

Being Brutally Honest
it's really just not a good environment, generally for a student there are always disruptions during class becuase for some reason students think its appropriate to misbehave in school either walk out or cause a commotion the staff are alright but there not really trying that hard to contain everything becuase if they did there would be no commotion and pupils would actually be learning something.

Church Stretton School Review
School leadership is poor, seems to be more interested in PR opportunities rather than student achievement. School staff are hit and miss but also reflect the leadership management style. School students are from a variety of backgrounds due to mixed demographics of the catchment area, should be achieving more. Total lack of any extra curricular activity primarily due to lack of leadership in this area or focus by management. No inter school sport although other schools in area offer this. Some bullying going on in the school and cyber bullying that the leadership team try and sweep under the carpet asap. Generally a poor school, send your kids to Priory or Ludlow for a more rounded focused education.

This school is absolutely dreadful don't go. If you're thinking of sending your kid here don't bother. The staff are terrible especially Mark Cox and the school environment is dreadful.

Totally average.
Don't expect much. Main downside is poor leadership. Teaching staff are mostly amazing. Its a small school so opportunity's are limited. SEND support used to be shocking but has improved dramatically recently.

Mixed bag
Some of the teachers are kind and caring and have your best interest in mind however others are awful and will rip you to shreds. The food used to be fairly good but i now so gross i am going to have to bring packed lunch. The school environment is okay and students do look out for each other however some of the senior staff do not take bullying, Mental health serious enough.
