    Terrible school

    The worst school I’ve ever come acrossed. They punish the children for the most silliest of things they are detention happy. They don’t work well with children that may have sends or any problems. They are very one sided and side with their staff over a pupil no matter what. They will make a child remove their trainers for having the most tiniest white tick on them yet they are fine with the girls wearing their skirts like they are grown woman in a night club. It’s absolutely disgusting how you...

    Not fit for purpose as an educational place

    Terrible place. Students are rude and disrespectful. Senior staff are useless and powerless to do anything to rectify behaviour. I actually think it is a dangerous environment. Poor SEN provision. No additional support in classes with challenging students. Lessons are boring and definitely do not challenge more able students. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE.

    What a mess of a school

    This school is a total mess, the headteacher really doent have a clue how to run a school and treats the students like animals! The bullying is out of hand as nothing gets done to stop it, the bullied child is the one that has to move class etc!

    Terribly bad school!

    In my opinion, this school is the absolute worst it is run by power hungry wallys and a head teacher that doesn't know what she's doing! Even her own children don't attend it cos it's that bad

    Rubbish

    This school is bloody terrible, they don’t help you with anything whatsoever and they don’t go around things the right way. They only praise the naughty students who have done nothing to deserve it.
