    Horrible school (Royton and Crompton)

    Horrible school please don't send your child here, They do not help especially if your child has suspected ADHD and Autism.

    I just think the school might not be the best or the fanciest but I know they try and it’s good to send your kids to and I would recommend it to whoever asks. Hopes this helped

    Would rather die than ever go back there.

    Horrid place. Should protect students and actually do their jobs instead of worrying how the schools image looks which is failing anyway. Need to stop having news articles illustrating it as a safe place because it is far from it. It’s got one star because like some teachers were alright sometimes most of the times they wasn’t helpful at all and also because Google doesn't let me put zero stars. A new headteacher isn’t gonna save the place if the teachers can’t grow up and do there jobs the place is doomed and I hope anyone who is planning to go there thinks about it carefully because your kid is gonna leave worse than they went in. So good luck and I’ll pray for everyone stuck in that hell?? ps: I don’t know how the slt got an award there what are they safeguarding clearly not the kids?

    Given that in April 2023, this school was rated inadequate, for the main area that's important to a school, which is teaching. The school is run like a military camp, more of a dictatorship, than a nurturing educational facility. The emphasis is put on students and their failings to comply with standards rather than the school willingness to accept poor teaching standards due to their inability to provide high teaching standards due to this. Main subjects such as maths, science, and English seem to have a high level of supply staff, which negatively impacts students educational experiences. The reception staff do not answer calls. It's very rare if they pick up a call, so if your worried about your child. You would struggle to communicate quickly and effectively with this school. They don' t want to know. I'm sure there is a very small percentage of excellent teachers who try their best to teach to an high standard, and are passionate about making a difference and positive impact to the students. However there seems to be an higher majority of staff who are just there for a paycheck, but the passion is none existent, this is reflected by the poor teaching standards.

    I don't like this school.

    Most teachers don't teach properly they just read off of a PowerPoint, I only like one teacher in the school and they manage to make my favourite lessons boring, favouriting students.

    It’s terrible

    Not once did I have a good day at school, we constantly had supply teachers, the mental health support was nonexistent, they dealt with drama terribly. I think I had two teachers that actually taught me things, the rest just struggled to deal with the class.
