    AVOID AT ALL COSTS - DIDSBURY HIGH SCHOOL & SIXTH FORM

    Teachers lie. Unprofessional. Will rat you out & threaten you and the child with all sorts, throw false accusations around. Lie about the child & the parents when it doesnt go their way & they know all about the lying. Not Trustworthy. Students troublemaking inside and outside. A shady school & sixth form, AVOID at all costs. Large number of student drop outs due to teacher & student bullying. Save yourselves from the trouble they bring to people's lives. Do not go to this school.

    wouldn’t ever put my child in this school again

    The receptionist staff cannot do their jobs whatsoever. One of the staff members in reception approached me with nothing but bad manners bad attitude and on a very aggressive approach and obviously they stick together and make out like it’s the parents fault to the point where they’re blaming and saying I was threatening them They are embarrassing. I hate this girl. Cannot wait for my child to leave.

    Poor school which does not meet upto expectation

    Reading the reviews not only here but on mumsnet has cemented exactly what I thought about this school. The teachers at that school think it is ok to speak down to the students. No wonder there is all sorts of problems from vaping, fighting to bullying. I have also heard these rumours. I am not saying that all schools dont have issues, but it appears to be ongoing with this school. If the teachers were not so strict then they might get a better outcome from their students. They may need to refle...

    Didsbury high

    Didsbury high school is a very good school and one of the best. Last year 89% got a 8 and 9 on there langue’s gcse. Which is so amazing and good, other than that the support that the school provides you is outstanding and just fantastic. This school will help your kid do amazing in there life and it’s a good place for your child.

    All schools are the same no matter what. Don't believe the hype.

    This school prides itself on being a good school but I'm not sure about that. There has been bullying, kids vaping during break time which has gone unnoticed by teachers. It's sad really as this is not a true representation of the school.

    Avoid

    Terrible. Search the school name over social media especially tiktok and it’s video after video talking about the students and the staff members, from spreading rumours about children to ‘rating’ children, children in year 7 so around 11 years old being rated for their looks by the rest of the school it is absolutely disgusting and I can’t imagine the affect on the children who are spoken negatively about (cyber bullying at its finest) Very rare to actually find a decent secondary school in Manc...
