Starving us
The food portions are ridiculous. No where near big enough to fill up kids to be able to concentrate for the last half of the day. Counted 6 chips the other day with my rubber fish. Horrific! #starving
Unfair
There are many people who get rewards but many great students get left out,
The only people who get recognition from the school are the people who pretend there stupid then do something good it’s a shit schools with lots of bullying

it’s okay
the school tends to push its students too hard for gcse, however the majority of teachers are good, i will mention the older spanish teacher and the psychology teachers need to loosen up a bit as both of their needs for strict rule following makes them seem mean and unlikeable
Good as long as you are a sheep and have no SEN
Had two children go here, first one got on great because she was a model student and she got overlooked by everyone.
Second one having a terrible time. No support from SEN department, answer to everything is punishment and most teachers are bully's who victimise students and antagonise situations to get a reaction. Hold your children in locked rooms with no way out other than to press an alarm which unlocks the doors and then they fine you £5 for the privilege! Some teachers are great but these unfortunately are told to take a back seat I believe when they offer a little too much help! All they care about is ticking boxes to make the school look better than it is. They have zero experience of children with special needs and they suggest moving schools just so they don't need to deal with it! Also make derogatory comments to children. OFSTED need to look into their practices as it seems like a prison not a school!

Really good offers great trips and great opportunities however still room for improvement
I left 2 year ago
Mid school, was fun but some of the teachers needed to go and touch grass
would not recommend
Moved in year 7 here in 2016, got offered a lot of support from the staff over some issues. however there is A LOT of room for improvement, no actual proper good support from them and they brush it under the carpet.
I had an event with another pupil with homophobia etc and that was brushed under the carpet.
Left this year and don’t miss it at all.
Barely any trips to anything and some horrible teachers.
