Cowley International College

All of the teachers are a disgrace to society. They say their anti bullying when theh lost definatly are not. My brother for kicked out of this school for sticking up for hos cousin. However, my cousins parents where not called to inform them that their sun was punched in the face.

Hated it teachers are horrible

Do not come to this school, they are exactly like my child’s primary headteacher. Vile beasts which do everything to ruin your child’s future.

absolutely horrible, I was only in the school 2 years and had to leave due to being targeted by teachers and then doing nothing about the bullies. they claim to not tolerate bullying but if anything they encourage it they’d rather a child get bullied than go through the effort of sorting it out. The teachers in the school use disgusting language when speaking to students and give punishments out for small things like talking to a friend or going to the toilet. I was self harming due to the stress of teachers targeting me and I got referred to camhs and banardos because of everything I went through during my time at cowley. please do not send ur child/children here.

Barley learnt anything, there are mostly subs in the classroom that barley know what there doing themselves. As for behaviour it's horrible the way the kids behave (AND get away with it)

This is a terrible school don’t send your kids here because I’m still at Cowley now and I’ve been struggling with mental health and anxiety for the past 4 years but after I started Cowley it’s been even worse and I get detention as soon as I walk through the doors and if I walk out of a lesson because of my anxiety or anger issues or people doing my headin they just give out IE and they don’t give you chance to talk to them and ask why you walked out. When I’m walking around the school crying the teachers don’t care they give you IE or a detention because it’s during lesson time and if you try to explain something to a teacher they always think it’s back talk when it’s not.

I thoroughly hated my time at Cowley. I was bullied awfully and the teachers did absolutely nothing. They even sided with the bullies that ruined my life and mental health. It is a toxic environment. I’ve even heard teachers make racist comments on some students. Please don’t send your children there, they will not enjoy it at all.

staff dont care about students hygeine its minging full of scruffs education awful dusty floors no phones c3 for coats stinks of bo etc dont come chicken burgers standi tho

I only started at Cowley in September 2023 but I already hate it. Since I started I have had severe depression and alot of the time I feel very down and I don't want or do anything and the teachers never help me they just shout at me and give me detentions wich make it worse. All of the teacher are really strict and I hate it so much. As well thanks to Cowley I have had to go to therapy as my mental health was so bad. I already had bad mental health but Cowley just mad it 10 times worse. Since I started I have been self harming and I have attempted multiple times. I have also been bullied alot and the school has done nothing about it. I can't wait to leave this hell. If u are thinking of comming here PLEASE DONT YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT

bad school, dont come here or send ur children. the teachers dont do anything about bullying or lost items and generally just dont care about students. food is usually undercooked and never has enough to feed the entire school

I’m still at Cowley now. I’m struggling. And hope I never have to go their again . The teachers are the most ignorant most disgusting people I’ve ever met. Students (including me) get moaned at and screemed at at 8 in the morning over skirts, makeup, jewellery and others. The staff are so ignorant and have no reason to moan to u about being disrespectful when they need to have a good look at themselves. Some shit went on and the school made it out I was going insane by not taking enough notice and not helping with my anxiety. I’ve been on the waiting list for autism and adhd for a year and they told me tha they can’t give me support until I’ve been dignosed they are giving the name round I’m just a “bad child” when I can’t help all of the things I do. Don’t send ur children here the school deserves to be gone there all a disgraceful waste!!!

For one the uniform rule is shocking, we are not allowed to walk round with blazers off, skirt has to be at knee length. Toilet issue is horrible, they do not let you go to the toilet until half hour through the lesson because they are 'being cleaned' when you ask they say no, even it it an emergency, they do not let you fill up your water bottle during lesson in the heat. One of girls in my class have said she has been 'touched' by one of the male teachers. They give detentions out for no reason at all. (E.g. not getting a good enough score on a test) They say they don't have enough money for recouces for learning, but both music rooms have around 18 APPLE computers, some of the computing rooms have just got all new computers, they have around 6 trolleys for touch screen, foldable laptops, but they 'cant afford' recourses?if you are late to lesson by one minute, they send you to IE. Is slightly sexist. It is good for education but the environment is not good to be in.

Wow terrible school don’t send your child here disgusting people and teachers

Terrible school!! Does absolutely nothing about bullying, if not supports the bully’s. It’s well known for bullying but claims it’s “anti bullying”. Head teacher is way too strict and the teachers behaviour and attitude to the students is absolutely disgusting. There is no support for children with anxiety or mental health, School food is always raw and the rules are just unfair. PS: If your thinking of sending your child here, DONT.

Cowley international college is the worst school to exist, I have seen a decline in my childrens mental health and behaviour since sending them here. My son has started swearing much more than usual and is very abusive towards me and his sister. My daughter is refusing to speak to people and often refuses to go to school with the horrible conditions within. I originally heard great things about this school but I am very disappointed.

It’s feb 2023 I left in June and I’m still in counselling because of the emotional manipulation and verbal abuse I faced from staff members during my time at cowley. Wouldn’t even give them 1 star like Christ I’ve never seen more power hungry adults in my life who get off on hurting children? I suffer from depression and being a mentally ill student with those incompetent staff members makes you feel like you’re a burden or not worth anything it’s disgusting.

Such a good school I love it here and my friends do as well

Just a rubbish school in general so

Awful school.Changed my child completely since starting here.Swearing a lot now and has developed a bad attitude.And this school is supposed to be anti bullying here well I can guarantee it's not at all,they don't care.Shocking.
