Monmouth Comprehensive School

The school really isn't as good as it's made out to be. Most teachers are nice and helpful though some are far too close minded to be working with children of these days. The schools got a horrible bullying problem and they do absolutely nothing about it. They don't put effort into educating us on LGBTQ issues, the most I was ever taught was a 15 minute YouTube video during form time and that's it. A lot of the teachers are also openly homophobic and/or transphobic. I don't feel safe in this school at all. It only helps the academically talented students whilst the rest of us are left to attempt it on our own to 'build our independence'. Neurodivergent kids are also shoved off to the side and I have been belittled by both fellow students AND teachers for my needs. Teachers often accused me of forging bathroom and exit passes, thus not allowing me to go. The teachers don't read their students files which just makes the whole situation harder on both the teacher and student. I'm leaving this may and am counting down the days, I can't wait to leave.

Was good until the new head teacher

I love year sevens they are beautiful and make my groin tingle. ???

Too Many NPCs. They're everywhere. I'm telling almost no one is actually real in this school.

Most of the teachers are brilliant. Very friendly as long as you get along with your work and behave however half the students have no respect for the teachers and don't do this so it causes issues. The current head teacher is trying to look inclusive by adding a gender and sexuality alliance club for the school but yet would not send out resources provided to him on educating about transgenders during lgbtq+ history month because of it's controversial nature. The school does nothing for any form of bullying just sits the kids down and gives the bully a slap on the wrist and then they're off the hook. As for mental well being support it is the most dreadful experience when given counselling you are assessed and then put on a waiting list that they don't even give you an estimated waiting time because they prioritise you. I've been waiting 3 weeks and I know a friend who has been waiting 4 months. Most of the teachers are so stretched for time as they have to teach years 7 to 13 with each year (apart from 12 and 13) having around 300 students + which leaves them no decent amount of time to support their A level students. 6th form students also don't even have a common room or any decent facilities to work with. They have a resource centre which has to be shared with all years and something like 30 laptops with only about 20-25 of them which will actually work. Teachers are leaving left, right and centre and all Hugo Hutchinson seems to do is walk around the school and do barely anything.
