cesspitt that should be demolished
ofsted says bullying is rare - Untrue. Bullying happens at all schools but at this one it is not even dealt with. Students and parents frequently report bullying and also report that this school did nothing to stop it - here is one; ''My sister tried to commit suicide this year in May, she was sent to hospital in a ambulance due to bullying in Cockburn, she was in year 10 now going into year 11, My sister had all evidence of the bullying on her phone and school didn’t do anything.'' I also know...

Cockburn School-A Student's Perspective.
Currently, At this school there is a maggot infestation in the boys toilets in the atrium. It shows the lack of care the school has and this school really has downgraded. I don't think the toilets are cleaned,and also students have been talking about it,NOT teachers.The website on Frog hasn't declared the maggot infestation-THEY DO NOT CARE!! Also,The food at school is horrible.You wait in line 20 minutes and either don't get the food you want because they have ran out. Or,You wait in line 20 mi...

Not happy
Very unacceptable school. Constantly being loud and disrupting the environment. This obnoxious behavior must stop. A student also threatened to steal an anonymous' phone. Ridiculous. Your sincerely, anonymous

Not good for SENs children
If you have a SENs child please make sure they have an ehcp or your child will have no support. My child goes here and tbh has had no education my child is either in isolation or been suspended on a regular basis (not saying my child doesnt deserves punishment child spends more time in isolation than a classroom) my child has additional needs. Honestly I don't know how this school got outstanding on all areas what a joke. Don't get me started on the bullying in that school. The teachers blame t...

Appalling School
Do not send any child to this school. They do not take bullying seriously and do not deal with it appropriately. Instead they make the person being bullied feel like a nuisance. Avoid at all costs if you value the safety and wellbeing of your child.

Teachers are bullies
I go to this school and I can say most of the teachers there a so rude and disrespectful and always making sure I have a bra on like I don’t have to wear on and tell me I don’t have anxiety but it’s proven I have like when did u become doctors and when I’m having a panic attack they say get on with your work like tf there more of a bully then the kids and I go home crying cause of the things the teachers say to me calling me pathetic and useless when there in a mood which is most days like stop f**k off and they said if I get my nose done I’d have to take it out but most of the kids at my school have it done like huh

Send your child somewhere else
They don’t care about the mental well being of their students, majority of the teachers are mean, I only ever knew of a couple of teachers who where genuinely nice, the atmosphere feels very prison like,

Cockburn school
Does nothing when dealing with bullying situations and doesn’t discipline properly or appropriately when necessary

Do not send your child here.
Absolutely abysmal, the “high average grades” are false as half of my year group sat foundation (lower) papers for maths and science. The head teachers are so blissfully unaware of the sheer abuse of power at the head of year level in that i was falsely accused of a crime by my head of year in which she had no evidence, made me write an illegal police statement and then lied to my parents about the occurrences of the day. Do not recommend for anybody, especially minority groups. Anybody who isn’t white and heterosexual will be discriminated against, marginalised and abused by “Senior Leadership Staff”.
