Horrible
This is the worst school ever it is so ugly and the teachers do absolutely nothing they are so lazy and the head teacher may seem nice but if he spills his coffee he makes the students clean it up!

Ignorant, non-caring, insincere & pretentious
Overall, communications from them are atrocious, lacking and out of textbook replies, if they even bother to reply in the first place. It's a non-denominational school that forces students to go to church without option for exclusion. Their ideas of good students are only selected few that they choose to favour. Often ignore misbehaviour in class quoting that it wasn't serious enough. They state school rules that they themselves bypass and ignore all the time, making it double standard for what...

Gryffe is known for being one of the best schools in Scotland. I agree that it's better than other schools in some ways but it is just like any other school. There's vaping we've had drugs. Same as other schools, we do had a lot of sport achievements which Gryffe loves to display in the office. I would say personally that my education is average

My experience!
I hate that place. I get bullied daily and as much as bullying is not the schools fault. The way they handle it allows it to continue and get worse. I feel unsafe at school as there have been many incidents of violence towards friends of mine and threats of them towards me, I once also was nearly hit by an explosive thrown by some boys in the year above me, which the school did nothing about. The facilities are appalling and barely work. The bathrooms have locks that don’t work, half the ceiling is gone, the toilets are always clogged and the floor is vile, the changing rooms are cramped and uncomfortable to change in and the teachers are unhelpful when it comes to both physical and mental health matters despite the school being advocates for mental health. This is school has not only caused a lot of mental damage and pain, it has also caused my grades to suffer immensely! I do not think I have ever hated a school more than I have hated gryffe!

Gryffe’s Excellences
Gryffe strive for achievement and they do it very well. In their recent of-stead inspection they received an excellent making it the first excellent of secondary schools in scotland. The grades achieved at Gryffe are of a very high standard and all staff are amazing!
