The howard of Effingham is atrocious. Granted i moved there half way through year 10, my first two weeks i was beaten up 18 times, I wasn't given the materials to catch up and wasn't allowed to finish half the subjects I started at my previous school. Most days I'd return home covered in blood and when I had the courage to go to a teacher (miss maskell I believe) said I had jumped off some stairs. The school has a penchant for protecting bully's. I remember one of the lads who jumped me now plays for Dorking wanderers, and guess what, the teachers protected him. There were multiple incidents where a teacher or teachers witnessed me recieve my daily beating from other students and did nothing. One PE teacher put me in after school detention when i beat the GCSE PE boys on a mile run finishing well ahead of them. When i did finally stand up for myself, guess what, i got excluded, banned from prom and had to be escorted on and off site for my exams. And because there's next to no CCTV when my parents finally believed that there was something wrong, the school covered it all up and lied to protect their "sterling reputation". The school deserves to be shut down, and the careers of certain students who finished in 2012 need to be tarnished
