Toilet situation
Bathrooms are all locked except from 1. Many people hanging about in the one bathroom that is open and sometimes when you walk in people think they own the toilets and tell you to get lost

Ok school
Alright school. Some teachers actually care about the pupils and try to help them as much as possible but then there is some which tend to just not care and even put hands on students! Foods alright some things are bad but others are great. Pastoral care don't do much, make the situation ad easy as possible so less for them to do. Big drug problem which the school does nothing about. Women teachers going in boys toilets without knocking - bit weird right? Half the school vapes in the toilets and...

OK if your doing well
We experienced heavy pressure to move our disabled young person on when they turned 16, as they were not 'achieving', which was due to their disability, not a behaviour issue. It must be easier to fabricate the paperwork to say they did everything, than to actually do the work and help these children/young people. I've heard we are not the only family.

was not impressed with this school
this school is very un-put together. there is a lot of jiggery pokery with classes and teachers. a lot of kids not getting classes they have chosen for the year. bullying is not handled appropriately and pastoral care teachers do not bother to hear both ends of a story that has been brought to them, they pick the one they find easiest to deal with, from experience. school is not welcoming, teachers are not welcoming and students are worse, and with no punishment for misbehaviour, do as they plea...

Uh… got some undercooked bacon once. Kids literally smoking on the school grounds. Foods questionable. No crisps but big slices of chocolate cake ? Kinda weird right ? The BBQ chicken could save lives tho fr. The pupils are alright I suppose. A few undesirables. Teachers are fairly ok (mostly) 5/10 couldn’t recommend P.S. bit of a drug problem at the school lol

Left leaning and mediocre
Not really great, could be worse though I suppose. The school is mediocre at best, with severe issues around drugs, smoking, drinking etc. Most of the people are pricks. The teachers are alright, well, some of them at least. Lots of pointless assemblies and time wasting, too short of a lunch break, and weird scheduling with constant staff changes. School lunches are about how you'd expect them to be, sometimes fine sometimes inedible. Most teachers are pretty relaxed about uniform, some are tight about it which sucks. Most chairs in classrooms are wobbly and the desks have holes/cuts in them, as well as them having a texture which makes writing on paper really weird since the letters don't look clear. The school leans far left in terms of their assemblies/teachings, so if you think it's bollocks like myself, then just don't listen to be honest. Definitely could be worse but I wouldn't really recommend it.
