Lymm High School

Coming from a place of honesty : the education it’s self is not the problem, it’s the delivery of care to the students that lacks incredibly. Students overall achieve good grades as the teachers and staff make it prominent to children that they will get nowhere without them, no encouragement of creativity , of personality, expect perhaps in the music/ preforming arts faculty. The “student services” faculty is perhaps the most poorly articulated branches of social care i have ever known. So concerned about uniform and appearance, leading them to care more about weather a girl had eyelash extensions on than weather or not she was being maliciously bullied. I do not recall a single occasion where the student services team genuinely helped me or any of my friends with a problem , all they seemed to do was cause more distress and anxiety. I will name names because i can and i have so much dislike towards the team i will call them out, staff like Mrs ball, Mrs clark, Mrs mogey. All of them so prestige and bored with their jobs that they get students into trouble for minute and pointless things for no reason. The isolation system is immoral and wrong. Children as young as 11 left in isolated cubicles for 6 consecutive hours, no interactions with others apart from supervised walks at break and lunch time. Sounds almost as if they’re being stripped of their human rights and treated like cattle. Sometimes for the most pathetic of reasons too. Mental health problems arise in students from fractured parental relationships caused by frequent incidents of isolation in school or “behaviour points” which only rekindles the cycle of further bad behaviour. The system is very damaged, it needs to be changed. Overall Lymm highschool are consumed by image , reputation and validation. An ironic quality considering they continue to preach thag students should care less about their appearance and that you should be yourself. “Life Programme” preaches that individuality is beautiful, expression of personal character. But students recieve multiple day long isolations for deciding to have a little fun and put a bit of pink dye in their hair? Ridden of break and lunch times until they remove ALL their makeup in school, something that could denture a lot of students self confidence. Education itself is of high quality, i won’t lie about that. But it comes at a price. What’s more important? The well-being of literal CHILDREN( not robots, like they’re made out to be) or the grades so you lot and your staff can get paid more? have a think. good night.

Absolutely terrible school, the way naughty students are handled is a joke, they are barely punished, and get away with disrupting lessons consistently. These students are also never properly punished for assaulting other students. The rules in the school are also a joke. Students are punished for the most irrelevant things, while other students get away with much worse. Lymm also has a huge bullying problem, the bullies are never punished and if a student lashes out as a result of the bullying without support, it is that student that is punished, instead of the bullies.

Everything they put out to the public is purely for appearances, the way they treat genuine issues with students and their preaching of “social responsibility” is a huuge suck up to ofsted clearly, as when you approach them with passion aiming to voice genuine societal problems within school you basically end up feeling like the villain for doing what’s right. Only after you have to sit through pointless and tone deaf assemblies on the topic, as if to tick it off a list and move on.

it’s acc rlly good u all just say it’s bad cos you hate doing the work just suck it up lol it’s a good school

So I go there right now and it’s really good lol
