Highfields School

Nurturing school where students are valued, nurtured and visible.

This school is terrible they don't support mental health at all and all they care about is the people they seen not the people they internally know. All they care about is your attendance and how will you do in your classes and as soon as you dont do your best they take a dislike you and they put way too much pressure of students to the point they have totally wrecked my mental health and they just expect you to carry on when your already at battle with your own mind they don't give support and just push you to the side This school only started todo something when I started to cause problems like I skipped because I was so anxious and didn't do the work because I mentally couldn't and all they do is blame it on exams or blame it on someone else which it wasn't either

I recently went to this school and I only managed to stay for 9 months before it got way to much. I am currently going into year 8 and I am in a better school. This school says they care about their students and say they sort out bullying but they don't. I was getting bullied every day and all the school did was "talk to the bully" but they never got proper punishments. The bullying continued and never stopped. One of my bully's was demanding money of me not to hurt me and the school didn't contact their parents and once again "had a talk with them" . This school has litterally destroyed my mental health they never sorted out the problem and it is ridiculous to be honest. The pressure put on everyone is also horrible they act like not having black socks is the end of the world. They put so much pressure on student to do there best they can't do there best because of how stressed they are. The security is bad also it is really easy for someone to simply walk onto the school grounds. All they have to do is hop over a small fence and they are in. And students can escape really easily (I dont blame the people who try to escape) If you are thinking on going to this school please re think it xx
