Don’t send your child here!
This school is a terrible place to send you child.The majority of the welfare team are white and don’t know how to help student’s situation and end up making life harder for them.The behaviour management team is the absolute worst and make this kids look like their crazy and just sit there in their seats and judge them.Teachers are also ableist and like to use offensive words against students and latter on say they were just “joking”.Specific members of staff likes to pick and choose what sides they go on and make the situation unfair.Unless you want your child to end up feeling suicidal don't send them to this horrible school.
ShAmBoLiC
This school is actually shambolic ok take it from me. Like, how can I be in set 1 for English and we have a set 4 teacher who literally begged to teach a higher class cause it'll look good on their record. NO NO NO NO NO!! And its tooooo strict, like, how can you get suspended if you don't bring in your equipment a few times. And I'm doing this anonymously so I don't get some goofy ahh cease and desist cause the school is that kinda school. Oh yea and did i mention that the food is horrible... with their wedges from Ohio (or Tesco if we're talking uk💀💀 ). Wait, did i mention that there was a WHOLE REAL LOCKDOWN
ewwwww
so ew,strict abt everything and care if your shirts tucked in and your hairs tied up more than people getting into fights and education least of their problems
Fits Good for my child
My child has moved to the school. The school is alright, pupils have been less behaved than the expected curriculum, My daughter has been bullied and teachers didnt care and shouted at the group beside anything else. She said its an ok school and its fit for her.
Bad school
DTA is a badt school definitely wouldn't recommend sending your kids here as the teachers do not know how to do there jobs properly
Worst SCHOOL DO NOT GO THERE
Worst type of shit ever I do NOT RECOMMEND going to this place
Traumatic experience
DTA was an absolutely horrible experience, I was bullied all throughout my 5 years there. I was assaulted and threatened to be killed over things that I cannot control. I reported this to my head of year who did absolutely nothing. When I struggled with my eating disorder and spoke to the school counselor at the time she told me and I quote "700 calories is fine, I do that too" I have left with unhealed scars that still make me s**cidal today. I pray that no one ever has to feel the way I felt. The schools good looking building and grades are a facade for just how badly the school manages mental health. They do not support not care for you.
School
The students are mostly POC and having a mostly white welfare team that doesn’t fully understand or relate to the experiences of immigrant youth nor understands the way their households may work can put some kids at risk. The way the classes are organised doesn’t make sense either, having kids who are expecting 8s and 9s in set 4 . Otherwise it is much better than other schools and feels much more comfortable to be in.
My experience
The school is still developing, so I didn't experience a lot of things, however I am positive it is going to get better oner the years
