    Bad school choice

    I'm in year 7 and they don't let us go toilets and kids with special needs don't get the help they need and if you say need need a pass for a reason they won't let you even though you have a valid reason and when we are naughty we get sent home for no reason or get reds and amber

    POOR AND HORRIBLE.

    The teachers here are depressing im writing this in reflections now as a year 7 student who hasn't been in here very long. First, I would like to warn you on Mr Clegg he is horrible, he touches kids when their not doing anything wrong and it sometimes feel like he comes to school just to embarrass kids or make them feel like $h1t. Also, I would like to address the fact that they do nothing about bullying if your kid is being bullied by a "normal" child, but if the kid who is bulling your child is "special" then they go out their way to make the "special" kid feel horrible about what they have done. To be honest I don't think this school deserves any stars not even half a star, I don't know how their ofsted reports are ok to be honest, I wouldn't recomend taking your child to this school, it makes me feel $u1c1d@l so no doubt that they will make your kid feel that way. Hope this helps. Xoxo

    awful school

    it is very dirty most of the time , the toulets are broke , 2 of the female toilets are locked and sometimes the other one is locked meaning the one without a door with 3 toilets is left for all of the girls in the school,the only people that acctually care is the dinner ladys they rember your meals that you get if you get the same ones , teachers are fussy if you have passes if you use them the behaviour system is unfair and they put to much pressure on the students

    FREE FOOD

    well, I don't have any problem with the classes, some of them are very interesting, and the learning method is not bad, but I have a problem and it's with the food, I'm not going to say it's disgusting, nothing to do with it, it's pretty good , but I think they should give it away for free, I know it's a source of their income, but if criminals don't have to pay for it, why would future doctors and lawyers?

    Worst years of my life

    I got through the school with glowing grades but this was in spite of the school, not because of the school. I was bullied from Y7-Y11, and when this was brought up to pastoral staff I was told that I “seemed to be handling it well” so nothing was done. Little support for students, little care for mental health, little done to ensure the safety of students and most time and energy of staff was directed towards covering up what happened in the school rather than working towards fixing the issue i...

    Shit hole

    I was bullied the entire time I was here and do thing was done about it, the staff don’t care about the students and they’re worse than the students for bullying.

    It isn’t a good school a

    I was bullied my entire time here, the school did nothing about it whenever I went to them. The students are disruptive so it was hard to get any work done. It’s not very secure as we once had a drunk man wandering round in the morning because he was able to just walk through the doors. I hated my time here and the only exceptions to this were a few members of teaching staff that seemed to manage these issues better than the pastoral teams.

    A student’s honest opinion

    Awful school Ugly uniform Cares more about trainers than mental health Teacher’s dont really care if you don’t understand the lessons they will just move on if 1 person understands Cant go to the toilet during lessons even if you couldn’t go during break Always bullying going on that teachers are oblivious to Guidance councillor does nothing Only about 2 teachers that actually care about learning and mental health Food is really bad and no healthy options PE lessons turn into football for the boys and just dance for the girls ( learning nothing about health or the body ) On multiple occasions the police have been called to watch all pupils as they leave the school due to violence with weapons The courtyards are small and plain, nothing to do at break or lunch as there is no access to the 4G pitches Atrium is always below 5° and coats are not allowed indoors or in lessons Does not help at all with personal development Overall i would not recommend
