    Dangerous

    Senior leadership act like saints that are above all other staff. Staff are harassed until they leave if they don’t like you.

    NO JUST NO

    Awful teaches shout and scream at you till the room shakes for anything even if its the thing they tell you to do. No anti-bulling policies put in place. Was told you dont learn anything from audio books. Got a detention for the bad weather and was late even after calling the school and telling them that a was going to be late. Theres a fight every week. Retained absolutely no information. SEN kids should not go here and have no accommodations.I had to leave

    Poisonous place.

    Staff are bullied as well as pupils. Country is desperate for good teachers yet the managers of this school get rid of older , more expensive , ie more experienced, teachers to save money.

    Don’t get me started

    This place has no respect for its students! It treats poc and lgbtq+ Students like dirt, not even caring when a child is being bullied. Fights occur daily and teachers treat the students like shit

    Find somewhere else

    The amount of times the fire alarm had been falsely triggered, it upsets me. Multiple students have likely gotten away, as I don’t know of many people that have been permanently excluded. And don’t get me started on the cafe overflow. Before covid there was a shambles of food catering. Dreadful school if you ask me

    Don’t get me started with this school

    I would rather go to a school that I have to travel 2 and a half hours down the country because they don’t see when a child is being bullied and even when you do tell them they don’t do anything about it
