Terrible from start to finish.
I have been away from this school for some time but based on other reviews, it seems that nothing has changed. My experience from years seven to eleven was challenging as I had to constantly overcome the demands of the curriculum and the teachers. For individuals who are struggling with mental health issues or have learning disabilities, I would recommend exploring other schools. Despite its shiny reputation, this school fails to prioritize the well-being of its students, focusing solely on academic performance. In my opinion, this school is not suitable for anyone and I would advise parents to consider other schools if they want their children to receive a quality education.
Good school
I am currently a student at netherthorpe and think it is amazing
Student
I was threatened to be stabbed by 12 kids the only thing that they did was move them into a different form however someone had a can of alcohol free deer 3 DAYS of suspension it’s horrible
Bad school, do not go.
Shit school, is racist and cares more about homophobia than bullying and racism.
Netherthorpe
This place is absolutely shit i hate this fucking place the food is expensive and low quality the teachers just scream it so bad dont come here i learnt nothing
Not good at all
Not good at all, don’t take bullying seriously
Awful
Terrible school,a few good teachers,but the rest especially the women are dreadful.
Petty unorganised and revert to screaming at pupils if challenged,in fact so vindictive that my child has been refused access to leavers assembly today,and we've had a phone call to say she's been " taking pictures" of her friends as these are the only memories she will have.
A phone call fortaking pictures????
Do one has been our reply.
Both my girls have attended this school and it has been a miserable experience for them both.

Bad school
Just a bad school. They did nothing to stop bullying and some teachers actually bullied students. It was the worst years of my life.
Terrible
The teachers do not take bullying seriously and are unable to control a class. Due to this, things get thrown around, people get beat up, teachers get verbally abused as well as students. Ever since I started at this school until i left, I learned nothing. Do not send your child here.
rubbish
they don’t care for your mental health, they never stop bullying at all which left me to almost kill myself
Don't come here.
Don't come here. It's a trash school that tries to make itself look great on the outside. They do absolutely nothing about homophobia, transphobia, racism, assault, etc. Many teachers are ableist, and refuse to change curriculum for those who physically cannot do the work. They don't respect personal space. If you are a child who is good overall, not necessarily brilliant or horribly naughty, you are invisible to the teachers. They all have clear favourites, and don't try to hide it, choosing instead to pick on the students that they don't like for no reason.
In short, don't come here unless you are straight, fully able, cisgender, and white, and probably male, since if your female, you will definitely get called out by teachers for not following "uniform guidelines".
