    Teachers.

    The school had a teacher which was a pedophile, they had just told him to not do it, and let him work there as a Physical Education teacher and a Geography Teacher. Harsh teachers, not receiving proper help needed with a few teachers, mainly cares about your GCSE’s if 10 and above. Cause they’ll say it’s your GCSE’s not mine sometimes not giving students the proper help needed in lessons.

    This school is literally hell

    This school is like a prison, one of the teachers once said we don’t deserve an hour break in the whole school day. I’m leaving this year finally after feeling trapped the last five years

    Do not send you child/ren here!

    As a parent I find this school to be quite shocking. No structure. Teachers/staff are atrocious. They do not help when a child asks for help. One teacher threatens to shoot them (I kid you not). No cares for the children and their mental wellbeing. This school has really gone downhill since a certain head took over. He wants to run a boot camp instead of educating our children. Oh and if you wish to speak to him directly. Good luck!! School is a joke. Send your child at your own peril

    Shut it down

    The school is horrifically bad. The high-up staff felt the need to have complete power over students and were not supportive at all. There is nowhere to go at break because the canteen is full and the courts are wet or the benches get stolen. The boys are incredibly homophobic and sexist and most of the girls are stuck up and bitchy. The good teachers keep leaving so it is incredibly understaffed and the teachers there are under-qualified. One teacher before he left told us he was leaving becaus...

    It’s alright but would look at other schools

    Some teachers are lovely but silly rules. Spiralled downhill since the new Headteacher joined. I left last year after completing year 11. They never taught you how to revise. So you have to do figure it out.

    Horrific

    The school is terrible in every way. If I could give a worse review I absolutely would.

    No no no

    Some great teachers but generally not enough support , ridiculous rules and no bullying help. Would not recommend
