Canteen.
Please make more food, specifically on a Friday. I went to the canteen for fish and chips and to my surprise they had ran out! I was then told I could not get just chips, which was odd as they had ran out of fish, not chips. I am disappointed to say the least. Not only do they have a lack of food, but they also don’t notice the majority of pupils pushing in the queue, along with this there appears to be teachers who think they have the rights to push to the front of the line. #bringmorefoodtothe...

my poor daughter
My 14 year old child goes here, the staff are horrible to her and many other students without a valid reason. They dont understand that many dont have the money to purchase new uniform every few months due to change in rules and values. my daughter is regularly late due to her illness which makes her sleep in while im working, the school knows about this and does nothing however when a different pupil is badly behaved, they reduce their timetable but dont support those in need. She also gets tol...

this school doesn't value students
many get excluded over nothing mostly because of the head teacher, and on very snowy days he rarely cancels even though the heaters barely work

HORRIBLE PRISON
Would put a minus 100 if I could. Horrible school, horrible teachers just horrible. the only good thing is the canteen bagels. The headteacher shouts and is like ms trenchbull from Matilda. This should be called Peterhead prison, a hellhole and for anyone trying to come to this school just don't. it is like hell. Ruins mental health and the teachers don't care.

Bad school ?
Most of the lessons are interrupted, teaching staff do not care. And many fights take place, poor quality of a building, and terrible control of students. This place is a zoo for animals and most of the teachers couldn’t care less I feel ashamed to even attend this school, and they are so worried about their reputation?..

Basic, but enough
nothing special or excellent but you get taught and you get your qualifications.

The rank isn’t low enough
The headteacher doesn’t do much about the bullying and most classes are interrupted by other students shouting across the classroom to each other which disrupts most of the lesson and draws people’s attention from the work provided and therefore we learn nothing, some students throw bottles and food at others during lunch an break, lots and I mean LOTS of fights happen, other people’s cars have been smashed from some of the students there, lots of locals have sent in complaints about these students and the harm they’ve done, should I go on?

Not as bad as the reputation makes it out to be
This place ain’t as bad as everyone thinks. Just because we got a bad reputation doesn’t mean it’s all true. Yes, the building is a bit of a dump, and yes there are some mean kids, but all schools have their share of mean kids and things like that. We have some really great teachers here and I wouldn’t choose any school over this place.

I strongly dislike it here
Piss poor establishment over all. I don’t know why Shona sellers is even still employed here.
