Crofton School

I went here for a year like 5/6 years ago and my grades were good but there was so many things that ruined it like seeing fights round the back of the music block watching someone getting hit throwing up seeing blood on the walls and all the girls in my year following me around trying to intimidate me and me like running away no teachers did anything haha and another significant thing I was literally hit by a car right luckily it was just a little so no breaks or hospital trips but it still caused an impact it happened outside the school (it was my fault I was being silly running across the road with a mate) a teacher coming out the school saw and took me into the school etc helped me(thank you I can’t remember your name) and anyway the next day I had PE and I kid you not my teacher literally MADE ME PLAY SPORTS I swear she didn’t believe me no one did 🥲 another teacher literally shouted at me for self harming

Looks like nothing has changed at this school then! Had the misfortune to attend here as a student in 1984-87. Bullying was rife, the teachers ignored it and refused to listen if you told them. Ended up fighting constantly and ran into as much trouble as the perpetrators for doing do. Rotten from the top down.

sorry this is long so much crap happened at this school: my mate got sexually harassed by another student and im pretty sure nothing happened; boys who were deemed "popular" would constantly catcall girls and bully students they felt were below them. you couldn't even sit in the LRC at breaktimes barely, they'd kick you out for no reason?? there was literal mold in the lockers and they were all kicked in, there was always blood/shit or food in the toilets ALWAYS. i remember being scared for my life bc i got beaten up by another student and the support staff did fuckall about it like i had to find out that this student had been suspended MYSELF LOL + nothing happened to them apart from them being able to stay at home, they're literally still the same person. 😭 there was students faking mental disorders clear as day, a teacher told a girl to "pull her skirt down bc it was distracting him" (ACTUAL WORDS)
i got a dirty wet piece of tissue lobbed at me by some twat and the teacher literally LAUGHED
i got slime in my hair and i asked for help and the teacher IGNORED ME LMAO
i bought a chicken drumstick from the cafeteria and it still had FEATHERS ON IT
i literally got an hour detention for saying the word "crap" no joke
they make getting your phone back the hardest shit ever, it's beyond a joke lmao,, why do i have to see 3 separate people who idk the whereabouts of just to get my personal belonging back?
also the late dententions can suck my ass tbh i accidentally missed one, got rescheduled and i had no idea where i needed to go for it or what day it was on so i missed that too. then i got rescheduled and made to sit in silence with some fat smelly mouthbreathing kid with pizza down his shirt for an hour just bc i was 5 minutes late x

not even mentioning my experiences with P.E...

i could literally go on for hours about how much horrible stuff went on at this school but i wont ok bye

such a nasty cornball yuck ass school i hated it x

I go to this school every time I wake up I don't feel like going here I can't talk about any of my problems teachers can teach and cant teach there subject I hate this school this teacher called Mr Barnes touched me weirdly I got lots of behavior points for not going in the write area the school makes me wanna kill my self I go home crying inside sleep or not sleep these boy send me back naked pictures and the school didn't take it seriously teachers yell at you swear they really don't care about you I wish I can leave but the school is so bad I always feel like I can't go I always get mad fun of teachers don't care about u fights they don't care when I go medical the tell you to put a ice pack on food is bad and over priced I am not allowed to talk to head of year the students always take pictures of you making you feel bad about your self your phone gets taking a way if you just take the time they care about your uniform more that mental health I get uniform report for one untucked shirt

I won't not recommend

the school do not care about your grades they only care for the high achievers they tolerate racism in such a way that no school would they do not let you voice out your opinion on just delay what you ask them to get there way they let the disruptive students get away with thing and finally they hide there secrets by making stuff up to the parents DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL!

couldn't care less about mental health, teachers cant control classes and half them cant even teach their subject and are the opposite of enthusiastic, they don't take bullying seriously or understand how it affects pupils in the long term, minimal advise for leaving school, care more about how the buildings look then the welfare and academic progress of pupils, send pupils home for wearing white socks yet most pupils walk round in skinny trousers, jeans and leggings or skirts which are shorter than their blazers double standards, no life skills taught, no pastoral guidance, clear favouritism between pupils, they have lockdown drills yet when groups of the public have entered the school grounds aggressively they do not use lockdown procedures showing they don't care for the safety of their pupils, they are clueless about many things for example they have failed to pick up on psychiatric conditions and learning disabilities for many students, they are not bothered about progress what so ever as long as enough people pass and a few do very well it is okay because it makes them look good, also they do not monitor each student well at all lots are left behind, missed and swept under the carpet etc, not much sense of authority either and when there is it is about the wrong things, do not encourage activities outside of lessons, they fail in developing students as young individuals
this is just some of the many problems
overall its awful and the negatives outweigh the positives by far
