Parkfield School

My time in parkfield was awful. Bullying was very bad in all years, especially for the older years. The school site was very noisy and dirty. Teachers were either very bad at their jobs (not being able to control out of order students) or very rude and disrespectful. I have dyscalculia and the maths teacher did nothing to help me, in exams I had to go into the main hall with all the other students and my anxiety is very bad so I hate those environments. It seems like they only care for those with diagnoses and they are still rude to those. Some of the boys in my year harassed every girl in our year and others and nothing got done about it. I was scared to go to lessons and some days didn’t even go to school. Not to mention the terrible mental health support. Not only me but my little brother struggled a lot and they did nothing to the point were we almost got fined and he moved school. I was head student and we had nothing in our role, we had to go through a stressful period of interviews for nothing, all we did were tours once every 2 months. By far the worst school in all of Dorset I would not recommend your child there unless you want them to be bullied by students and teachers.

It's ok. Could do better Covid-19 restrictions. Pupils are distressed. Yr11s are very stressed about GCSEs. Great teachers especially English, Maths, Science and Technology. Good school but could do more to improve and help Yr11s.
