    everyone is so mean

    i hate it here. people are so mean to others. the teachers don't care about bullying or people picking on other people. its horrible here. wouldn't recommend; especially if your an introvert, because the loud people love to take the mick out of you and act like your nothing to them.

    The Hinckley school not supported my disabilities needs

    I have been diagnosed with autism and the school has failed terribly to meet my needs. My needs are simple, don't ask my questions in front of class as it's overwhelming and stressful, my stress levels decrease significantly if I'm next to a close friend. If I need a place to calm down I was told to go to a room called student support where I can feel supported. Student support is mainly for people with disabilities like autism however recently I have been kicked out because the school want the...

    Fornite :D

    I am also a "friend" of sweetie. As i can here this school needs a lot of reforming. PS please talk to sweetie about how she has bullied me since 2021. It would be very kind if you put her on some sort of safe guarding list as she needs the support, especially in maths. Her coordinates is 53.0818° S, 73.5042° E I decided to leave the school as she is too mean and makes my learning unsafe

    Not the greatest

    Constant student abuse and no teachers care about mental health, I'd suggest finding a school that's better for your child if they struggle with things like that, because most teenagers do whether you see it or not.

    needs some improvements

    My school feels like they are trying to make it better but its just getting worse.The vandalism that people do to the school is bad, everywhere you go now there is slt everywhere, standing out side the toilets always in every corridor, cctv everywhere you go, and this is because of the vandalism and people setting of fire alarms. IT FEELS LIKE A PRISON. The amount of bullies in the school is unbelievable and they dont do anything about it when they say they do.The amount of homework we get 2 pe...

    Shockingly bad

    To be honest the worst school I've been to in the area and I've been to a couple. I wasn't at this school for long, only about a term probably. I initially started at the school in Yr7 like everyone else but swiftly left not long after. I was bullied severely and the staff refused to do anything about it and thought I was lying. They only started to talk to me once I had provided evidence (messages containing d***h th***ts) to the headteacher. Even then, their management of the situation was app...

    Good pastoral care but a lot of bullying.

    The teaching is decent. The pastoral care at this school is brilliant and they are happy to accommodate any students needs. The only problem is the teachers are unable to control their students behaviour. Lessons are constantly interrupted by other students and bullying is an extremely common theme.

    I don't like it

    They take you phone of you for no reason. I don't like the school as there is many problems with it such as no swimming pool and lack of facilities as they are always broken. Some teachers have just gone to prison.

    Probably the worst in the area

    Now don’t get me wrong I had some great moments at this school and some of the teachers were top class but that’s about where the positive points end, from teachers who are now in prison for things I don’t think I can say on here and teachers just standing by bullying and letting it happen students setting off the fire alarm at least once a month (it went or 3 times in one day once) which I admit at the time I didn’t mind because most of the lessons were boring especially maths where talking was a crime punishable by an after school detention this school has it all if you like the facilities you are again out of luck the swimming pool is as far as I’m aware closed and everything else deteriorating save yourself the trouble go somewhere else

    Avoid like the plague

    Useless staff could never control a classroom. It's a Shame as I definitely had good passionate teachers during my time there but they ended up leaving as the school got worse

    Do not work here!

    I was a teacher here for about two years; I have never quite witnessed such poor management of facilities, resources, student behaviour, staff training, middle and senior management to name but a few. The school is falling down, don’t let the fancy new website fool you. Staff do not care, and managers lack empathy and don’t seem to care about students or staff. Take a look at the nutrition teacher Mrs Guzzetta- the only thing she could teach a child/teenager about nutrition is how to get a fast pass to type two diabetes. This woman can barely write an email without having to recall it for mistakes, how she is a senior manager is beyond me. She is just one of a few permanent fixtures, like a lazy boy chair or other bulky, awkward and heavy piece of furniture you should have gotten rid of 15 years ago. Ms Patterson is the same- these people brought the school into requires improvement but are still there. Toxic work place/bullying is normal by staff and students no support-lazy teachers and LOADS of staff absence which is unsurprising considering how awful it is to work there. SERIOUS OBESITY EPIDEMIC HERE.

    The average school

    Not gonna lie I had good moments at this school but also bad moments. Some teachers aren’t strict some are and overall I think it’s not to bad for a school.

    Not very good

    Food is way to expensive and not even good quality. Some teachers don't have a clue what they are doing, not doing social bubbles correctly, so literally anyone couldve come into contact with someone with covid
