This school is a nightmare
I was not safe here. My friends and I endured severe bullying from peers every single day for *four years*. We had things thrown at us like rocks, food, mud and rubbish; we never felt safe on school property due to the constant abuse and physical violence we received. To make it worse, the students doing it faced no consequences even though multiple reports were made. Sexual violence and assault were everywhere; nearly every girl I knew had experienced it in some form and had been given absolu...

Great school
School may be under special measures at the moment but it's a lovely school for your child. Teachers welcome you everyday with a smile, the curriculum is friendly for all, the SEN team is good and they genuinely care for you. I would do anything to be back at this school.

Great school
I stayed at this school for 2 years, year 7 and 8, and then moved to a worse school in year 9. For the two years i have been there, the school quality has been great. Most of the teachers and the learning is of good quality. They do not set too much homework either, only Bedrock Learning which takes about 10 minutes. The school environment is very friendly and the food is great. The rules are not too uptight either which makes the school more friendly to students. The safeguarding is good too and if you have a concern teachers check up on you regularly. The only thing I would ask to change is the bus service. The 382 and 384 route to the school is usually very late and is the reason why my parents decided to move me. If it wasn't for the bus i would've stayed at this school.

Terrible
Multiple times when I ate the school lunches I found bones in the chicken burgers alott and have been given undercooked chicken multiple times. Some of teachers are so rude, honesty I could could go on forever about this

Smells like lynx and controversy
Frankly. The schools alright. But I have to admit with rumours that the headmaster is anti-Semitic after leaving a student with no punishment after nazi saluting to a Jewish faculty member, coming today it’s a little controversial. With parading roadmen, dripping with BO and spending their last Lynx Africa scented breaths from their tarred puffer jacket wearing lungs, hissing out homophobic slurs against the schools minority, with the growing minority of younger students and in the same year als...

Good school
I have been happy the whole time at Robertsbridge. Small school so it feels like a friendly community, food is good, generally good grades. Less strict on uniform than other schools. Lots of new classrooms and refurbishments going on at the moment.

Awful
This school is atrocious. All the teachers just care about how the school and student looks (even though they’re all still butters)and not about the student’s education. Ever since Mr Vice came along the school has gone downhill. On top of this, they always leave the school gates open and due to this other teenagers who do not attend robertsbridge have entered the property.

Never judge a book by its cover
Never judge a book by its cover While yes, teaching, academics and learning are all features of this school that stand out, it has underlying issues with bullying, a bad anti-bullying system and general unawareness of bullying. I have found many issues like homophobia, transphobia and racism sometimes encouraged by teachers brought into school grounds. These aforementioned issues have not been covered enough in general school assembly’s, which is prime time for students to learn about social iss...

Okay, but could be much improved
I wouldn't say the teachers or work are awful or anything but students can literally be outright homophobic and all that happens is warnings. The teachers are mostly okay, I just feel kinda unsafe

Bad school, bad staff, bad handling.
I'm bullied constantly. Staff know and do nothing. People have threatened to kill me and the staff haven't done anything. Many of the teachers are bad at their jobs, even one so bad I quit the gcse so I could do one with a decent teacher and actually do well. In my year there are big problems with homophobia/genderphobia/transphobia that staff know about and do nothing. I even know one of my fruends who was sexually assaulted at school and staff know and have so far done minimal things. Lots of fights and bullying, not handled well by staff.

Amazing
I am a year 11 at this school and I feel they have given me the best preparation for my future. I have been given the best opportunities as a pupil. During remote learning the teachers have been supportive and helping to motivate us. Over the years I have been in many plays and joined many clubs and have done a taken a wide range of roles. I could not speak more highly of my experience at robertsbridge.
