    Poor Standards

    Meeting professsional standards does not apply to all staff who work at the school. The school environment is not what is claimed via their website. There is a high chance that a child would be left feeling very unhappy, unsafe & unsupported at this school. Pastoral support can often be very poor or non-existent for some year groups. Senior leadership can often be very poor. Communication is poor & often non-existent. Some staff have a lack of integrity. Some staff target students thus causing s...

    Don't go to this school and shine is so bad

    Furze Platt was a complete nightmare for me. I got bullied almost daily, and every time I reached out for help, nothing got fixed—in fact, it felt like the staff made everything worse. Instead of protecting me, they either ignored the problem or just shrugged it off, leaving me feeling completely abandoned. Learning at this school was just as awful. Classes were confusing, boring, and it felt like I was wasting my time. I never actually learned anything useful, and every lesson left me more fru...

    Do not send your child here

    This school seems to be over subscribed and under staffed. My child went in from a very small school granted, he made friends very fast luckily. But, the constant bad behaviour, shouting, fighting, not getting on with work, kids seemingly not giving a hoot. This means heavy restrictions, rules and regulations which make it into a prison. If you want to go to school to learn, this is not the school. Maybe some manage it, but I know that many struggle here. There is not enough support for all for...

    My opinion on furze platt

    This school is not that good you see you have this place called shine it may seem like a calm place for children who have autism but it has a dark side like a very dark side they baby kids they don’t give them a chance they force them to do the things they don’t want to and then we have learning support now that’s a terrible place because they always close a feild when it’s not muddy it’s just not fair so if your child is autistic don’t let them go to school

    Don’t send your children here

    I’m really annoyed so much, you said you would try so I can you prom but u didn’t try hard enough. All that school as ever done is give me shit, since year 7 I got bullied and I always got in trouble for it and it was always my fault and the other people got away with it. I was getting bullied online the school didn’t do anything about it I got pushed in the road one time after school and they followed me home and shouted horrible names to me down my road and the school never done anything. In y...

    i've lost myself

    going to this school was the worst that ever happened to me!! i went in a happy, young, free spirited little girl and came out with a dark cloud of thick black smoke looming over me, the physical and mental damage ive endured from this school is undescribable, if you don't want your child to completely lose all sense of themselves, do the right thing, DO NOT SEND THEM HERE!!!!!!

    A excellent school.

    The school is excellent and the only thing that ever makes me doubt that is the behaviour of some students that makes it bad. The teachers and staff are excellent however.
