HVS review
This School is horrible. Only have a select few good teachers. Thought I was getting top tier education - turned out I was being lied to. Water fountains are restricted outside of break times, so many people end up not focusing due to lack of water. Mental health is poorly managed, although I have not needed to find help for it, many people say how bad the system is. Speaking of the system, behaviour is managed poorly, teachers won’t listen to any reasoning for events eg being late, and repeated...

Terrible management and racist head teacher
The school has a poor management with a strict head teacher who doesn’t care about the quality of the school but only about her image. The good teachers leave usually after less than year.

mental health
i’ve been biting my tongue for so long about this school, i thought that i would get over it but i haven’t. when i was at the school i was struggling with depression. when i brought this up to the school, one teacher told me to “get over it, life’s hard”. a couple of months later, it got really bad and again i brought it up to teachers and all she said was “that’s a crazy way to view your life”. that made everything worse. i would wake up having panic attacks most days, even had some in school a...

Terrible
I went to hoe valley and was bullied the whole time. There were very few good teachers and a lot of violence, sometimes fights every week. The head teacher was absolutely atrocious and would pick on me constantly and separated me from the class for no reason. She also did absolutely nothing about any bullying the whole time. Some teachers were even worse than the kids. I absolutely do not recommend.

Verbal abuse from a teacher
I wish I listened to the reviews of this school and never sent my daughter. Very few good teachers and the head is awful. She doesn’t call you back or respond to emails. The business studies department has a teacher who constantly shouts at the students and worse, every lesson, calls them stupid! Abuse at its finest.

Send your child here not winston x
This school is a lot better than winston. A few of my friends go to winston and they say its shit but hvs is a lot better. There is a lot of cultral days and language days, they stop bullying and do not care if you are a certain religion. I love it. x

Hoe Valley
Poorly run. Teachers leave after a few months teaching there because they can’t cope with the behaviour of the students. Some even leave within weeks. Classes left without subject teachers for long periods of time and replaced with cover teachers. Only positive is the new sports facilities when you’re allowed to use them.
