Helsby high school

No door on boys toilet no locks on cubicles refusing to fix door even though it’s an easy fix they fixed it for parents evening to make good impressions but took it down themselves afterwards even though there was no issue it’s a completely different environment when off-sted are in school and the teachers also binge watch cameras with no excuse on why and and always fights and the teachers are aggressive and sometimes make physical contact with students in agressive ways and sexual ways making lots of students uncomfortable in school !!! Although mr Arthur Is amazing and helps students when needed

School more like prison!

I was locked in a room for 8 hours because a student which was part of the LGBTQ told safeguarding I was being mean with no proof at all. Then when I tried to tell them and did nothing they said they did not believe me.

Good School

Great school, I had a great time while I was there however, a certain female PE teacher made year 9 a living hell for me. Any girls who've been to Helsby know who she is, but we move. Other staff are great like Wheeler who everybody knows and loves.

Helsby High School

Helsby High School. Well, It is quite an old school and throughout this is noticeable. The schools hygiene is poor, of course under COVID measures it has improved but not by a-lot, for example hand sanitisers are not regularly filled up and well its not exactly a clean school. The teaching at the school is incredibly hit and miss, sometimes you will receive quite good teaching however I find too often it is either average or poor. Some staff members at the school are sometimes quite rude, many of the teaching staff decide to pick favourites. The food served is mediocre to good, the chicken sold is frequently under cooked, hygiene of food preparation is usually below average to average. The catering staff take the face covering policy quite loosely along with some of the normal staff, for example taking down the mask to speak and some of the catering staff mostly wear their masks below the nose.
