Rastrick High School

HELLO read at this review and you will be shocked. FIRST AND FOREMOST, the teachers are disgustingly disrespectful. They are always in a mood especially mr skidmore and his breath makes me gag in a morning. Teachers often showed favouritism which created an unfair and uncomfortable learning environment. Personal hygiene standards among some staff were rather questionable and i learnt alot at this school and mostly how to hold my breath around mr skidmore, he has made my journey throughout school rather smelly. The teachers would also have arguments with children half their age which is so embarrasing especially that receptionist with red hair and lip filler looking like a hooker.

Where to start. Bully teachers on a power trip, broken promises time and time again with regards to the wellbeing of my Son, lack of communication when promised, zero empathy for those with additional needs. The school wants pupils to arrive positively in the right frame if mind to learn when teachers clearly don't turn up positively wanting to teach. Inconsistent I there approach to punishments. What's given to one isn't given to another. Teachers won't accept responsibility for their actions, and will always place the blame with the pupil even when a firm argument and there are witnesses. Always focus on negatives and never the positives. Reception staff require a personality transplant. This school is a prime example of what is wrong with our education system!!

Bad school rude stuck up teacher with zore care in the would and talk about people dead family members

if i could give it no stars i would. it’s so unbelievably bad but ofsted doesn’t realise how badly children are treat as they don’t speak to the pupils. go into isolation and ask them kids that they hide away how they feel about their school

Worst school got bullied for three years never ending with teachers knowing had to move schools just to get away from it

First of all this claims to be a MUSIC school yet it has zero regard to actually care for it. They cheap out on everything including their staff and it shows. I am a clarinet player and as soon as I joined the school they immediately put me in the school band without an option which I didn't have a problem with but the band teacher was EVIL and she drive me to depression at one instance she once told us to "jump off" and that was just a huge over reaction for us not being able to play the pieces. We reporte this incident and all the school did was tell us that they would talk to the evil teacher but nothing ever happened. Another problem is the clarinet/ piano/ saxophone miss o'donoghue. This woman is a shrivily snakey wrinkled cakey bitch who has no respect for her students and focuses purely on negative things. I once got yelled at for giggling in a funny situation because my laugh was annoying and bringing a "negative energy" to the room. She has turned my passion for music into a daily dread and constant anxiety. I am not the only student who hates her guts however I'm the only one who I not scared of the witch and will actually say something. One time she was so mean to me that I started crying and hyperventilating and she told me to stand in a corner facing the wall and shut up. The main year team know about this incident and did nothing. I'm SICK of this school and they treat their students.

Awful, ASD special needs provision. Bad management and politically motivated staff.

Excellent school. My child achieved well and was well supported. Thank you.

its horrible, they tell you off for everything you do and they shout for no reason, your not allowed to talk or laugh, you cant have your shirt untucked and you cant wear earrings, i would not recommend this school at all…..

This school is a joke

Good school but the food is trash, most of the good school food has either been taken off to make better dietary choices , however the difference it makes is not impactful and we would be better off being served good food instead of rubbish, also security inside the school poor students can get away with some things in the bathrooms.

I got harassed by the headteacher and he touched my stomach when telling me to tuck my shirt in. Was obviously and accident but felt weird. I also got flashed by my English teacher when she was wearing a shorter skirt They also pick and choose who to enforce the rules on. There’s good teachers but only a few

awful school do not send your kids here. was completely disregarded here as a person and not helped with gender identity issues. i was told it was just a phase and that it would go away soon (it didnt). I also once told one of the welfare staff that i wish i was never born and they told me that it was to do with hormones???? okay i genuinely wanted to die but yk oh well. i spent a lot of time here trying to get the welfare teachers on my side because none of them believed that there was a possibility i was autistic and had adhd ( i have both, diagnosed in October). there were times where i was incredibly overstimulated and not in a fit state to go in lesson and concentrate so guess what!!!! they forced me into lessons and threatened me with detention. i did actually get a detention once for 'truancy' eventhough i was having a time out. seems like the only people who cared about me was the year 11 team shout out to miss mallet love u and miss u xoxo

Rastrick highschool is Among one of the worst high schools in Yorkshire, teachers for some reason like to bully students essentially and rather favour the popular students and make them feel like the centre of attention, students with mental health issues are seen as quiet people who aren’t productive and punished for not answering questions and were failed on their subjects after covid and during it, the punishment system was new when I joined but was already outdated within the first year as teachers would put you straight to the bottom because students had already painted a target on their back, teacher student relations in the classroom were awful as once a student had done something bad they would instantly hate them, there was no support for students with learning disabilities like dis calculus and dyslexia, and students with other disabilities were bullied and teased to make them mad and outburst, the library was unavailable to any students who weren’t in year 7 and students were only allowed a certain amount of food otherwise the other years wouldn’t have enough, maybe plan better in the future. Seems to be a vaping epidemic as students from rastrick like to buy from shops in town whilst still wearing uniform, also apparently a teacher was fired for putting a child in a bin and apparently would touch girls inappropriately and teachers would only listen to complaints and not actually act on them, like who is this school hiring. Are they doing background checks or actually doing anything against sexual assault allegations instead of ignoring them, my time there was fun because I didn’t give a sh1t about what I did and I was removed and given behaviour points which didn’t help as I didn’t learn anything from it. I had my fun there but looking at it now it doesn’t seem like the “best years of your life”.

I went to this school around 3 years ago. It is awful there, I got no help with learning difficulties and mental health problems I got in problems with some head of years when I was off due to therapy. This highschool is awful and some of the worst years I have ever been through because of teachers and other students. Some of my teachers were nice but they very obviously had favourites.

Discusting school allow sexual assult and male teachers to sexualise female students pointing out bras skirts and even grabbing bra straps. I will not be sending my daughter

Unsociable environment with ridiculous rule enforcement and not enough achievement praise

I was assaulted more then 10 times by this boy and he never faced any punishment for it but when I called him fat they acted like I committed a war crime This school is just generally bad I never got help from teachers especially in maths This school is also quite sexists to boys from what I’ve witnessed in form time

horrible school teachers are intimidating and rude they do not care about anything i do not feel safe
