    review

    honestly, my whole 5 years at this school, the struggle, the stress, and the problems I have had there, I have always been predicted quite high grades and left this year with the lowest grades i never even imagined. it also seems that way that the low grades are similar for all of the year group. I think this school, and these teachers have alot to say for themselves.

    School work

    I came here for 4years just finished there this year, a lot of people are unhappy with there results as they were predicted 5s in English and came out with 3s or 2s and the teacher always said she wasn’t worried about us passing she knows that we will as our ability to work is amazing and we have all failed

    different treatment

    Me and 2 other students left this school for reasons, then come to exams, leavers, prom, the 2 students are asked to be welcomed back to the school, all off us went to different schools after we left which means we wouldn’t be on role, okay, so i email, i apologise for my actions at the school and ask if i can go, they then left me 4 days waiting on “they would let me know” they then come back to me with no because im not on roll, i then see videos off the 2 others that weren’t on roll at exams...

    Terrible

    Bullying policies seem to be a tick box exercise for this school. The amount of bullying that goes on here is unbelievable! Police have regular arrivals here as well and surprised they haven't got there own parking bays. The children who bully others seem to be protected (maybe the school get funded for troubled children) and over 50% of the lessons are substitutes who are obviously not qualified to teach as they let the children watch films! Wish we never took our children here

    It’s alright I guess

    Not great, sometimes hard to focus, boring lessons, horrible students, lessons could be more attention grabbing

    Not the greatest school

    Personally, it's a really bad place with alot of bullies, people get the same punishment for punching you in the face as not doing your homework and when I was entering year 9, I ended up overdosing twice in the span of just under 5 weeks. I haven't been there since, they're under-staffed and under-funded and I'd say very few staff members want the best for you.

    Terrible bullying situation

    Terrible school. They do nothing about bullying. They don’t do anything about any complaints you give them and overall they just aren’t good.
