Do not recommend this school. Its so overly strict on uniform that you can end up in after school detention for having the wrong type of shoe material Overall I’d say half of the staff are decent but the other half are unsupportive and some probably shouldn’t even be teaching. I had one teacher who taught me for gcse then after the first year we were told that they werent able to teach gcse anymore because they missed out half of the gcse unit Another point to make is the food, if you do end up going to this school make sure to bring a packed lunch. The school has literally ended up in the newspaper for serving raw chicken ?

Many of the staff were willing to help but only if you are willing to learn. i completed my gcses here and i am very happy with my results. as many other comments have said, bullying is something that occurs in the school. i’ve heard of this happening in classrooms consistently and teachers going nothing about this. i do believe that the teachers are trying their best and the school has had some improvements over the years.

Whole place is an awful environment. I experience homophobia almost daily here. The rules are about as inconsistent as the uniform policy, and teachers will bend or even change those rules based on whether or not they ‘like’ you personally. There’s a serious bullying problem and the staff plain don’t care, nothing is done about it. The one thing I’ve learned about this place is that almost nobody cares about how you feel. Almost every aspect of this place is unfair and nothing is done. If you’re able to send your child to an alternative school, please do so.
