DONT COME HERE IF YOURE A POC 😭😭😭

EXTREMELY white school especially compared to other schools in milton keynes. like im talking up to 4 asian people and 6 black people in a year group (im literally the only asian girl in my year). teachers do not care about racism: ive reported many incidents of racism against myself and other pupils but either no action has taken place (person who committed the crime didnt even get spoken to at all) or my mother has been sent a simple "sorry lol wont happen again" email and again the person doesnt get into any trouble and it does happen again. staff members also try to justify saying slurs/derogatory language??? reading omam by steinbeck and the white teacher says he will say the n word for educational purposes. pastoral leaders of certain year groups also for some reason don't understand why white people cant say the n word. ousedale tries to market themselves as a diverse school by using us poc as token representation on student council etc but it's really terrible here. DO NOT COME TO THIS SCHOOL IF YOU ARE A PERSON OF COLOUR!!

Rubbish school

I find this school to be highly unprofessional Dam right rude pick and choose who gets in to the school by social class very prejudice against children who they feel is not fit enough to be in their school do not care about young peoples feelings and emotions. It’s all about making money and getting their precious OFSTED report that they lie about claiming to be fair nice upstanding school. I find this to be very very untrue DONT SEND YOUR CHILDEN HERE IF YOU CARE ABOUT THERE MENTAL HEALTH AND WELL BEING

Crap school

Ousedale is meant to be one of or at least the best school for gcse grades in Milton Keynes. The teachers tell us they care about our mental health but when it comes to dealing with it they don’t care. Once I got made to be friends with someone I hated. Still hate them but the teachers didn’t care about me only the other person. The food in the canteen is overpriced. Take our belongings if we use e.g. our phones in class. It’s close to a prison. The only good thing is the friends I have here. Met my best friend of 4 years here. DON’T GO TO THIS SCHOOL!!!!

Crap school 😐

Not a very good school, Teachers constantly ignore when they hear students say derogatory slurs that are used against people of different sexualités, Rumours are spread a lot about different people and Some people think they are superior to others, Somebody Came out as trans and they got so many threats just because they put a pride flag and a trans pride flag up and gets deadnamed and misgendered not only by the students but sometimes also the teachers

Worst 5 years

Hated my time here. I was constantly exhausted and my mental health had gone down the drain at this school. I was bullied quite a few times and teachers ideas of sorting this out is to make you say sorry to each other and they believe it will go away. My sisters currently being bullied and the school are ignorant to this because they don’t care. The schools only concern is getting good grades no matter the cost for the students wellbeing

awful experiences

awful, worst 5 years of my life. teachers acted oblivious to the amount of people who would spread rumours and just be horrible towards me shouting nicknames and stuff. when rumours went around in year 7, told the person to never talk to me again but it was too late because half the year group had heard. tormented everyday literally for 5 years and other students treated me like i didnt exist and wasnt real.

could be better

teachers don’t really do much about bullying (especially if it’s to do with lgbtq students) there isn’t really any access to water to fill your bottle up, and don’t assist with mental health at all despite saying they do.

Great school!!

Great school, teachers are friendly and always helpful. Really nice environment too, always a happy vibe especially in summer. Never had an issue throughout time spent there, I finished yr11 in 2019. Highly recommend. (Newport campus)

worst school

worst school ever, i had to leave to get homeschooled for a year because of bullying and the teachers didn’t care, in fact i got blamed by them for getting bullied. i never felt comfortable going to school and when i didn't understand the work the teachers would sigh and then get annoyed with me as if it isn’t their job to teach me? and the water fountains water is never clear and clean, always murky and the chicken served is often pink inside

Great but needs improvements

The quality of education and experiences are enough for it to get a 5 star, however, they need to improve their computer software on the school computers because as of late the programs are becoming unsupported and therefore raising questions on data security.

Amazing but needs a bit of work

The quality of education is exceptional, however, the reason I'm not giving this a high 5, is that they are not keeping up to date with the modern world. For example, they haven't updated from windows 7 OS on student computers and with windows 7 being unsupported, is that raises questions of student data protection.
