    Bad school

    School is a disgrace, my years there and my sisters were awful, most the teachers are rude and don’t even follow their own policy’s/rules. It is like a prison and wonder why students are rude back.

    HORRIBLE!!!!

    i usually have anger outbursts and the teachers know that this is something i can’t control and it will just come out as they have told me this themselves some teachers refer to me as “special” to my face for what reason?? i know i can be a handful sometimes and they can’t control me but punishing me for something i cant control is disgusting. teachers tell me i’m just misunderstood by other teachers but then they don’t listen to my point when it comes to me shouting at them. teachers act so different when ofsted come or whatever it is before they come in we get told “they are coming today so when they walk in this class i want you on your best behaviour” before they walked in this class last year in March 2022 i was getting SCREAMED at as soon as they walk in she lets it slide. i’ve tried moving schools so many times but not aloud for whatever reason. this school destroys your mental health. if you wanna stay sane i don’t recommend coming to this school. I wish i was the same person i was before getting ruined by this school. if anyone reading this don’t agree wait until ur referred to as “special”. i hope this school burns. i can’t wait to leave.

    retarded school

    sell out. never go to this school the end result is not worth it. the whole education system at this school nowadays is pure BS like is the headteacher this deluded I mean the rules that you have to follow "Banded phones". The teachers are stupid don't care about the student's future so if you fail you GCSE's they'll just be sorry for you literally acting. PISS OFF

    Worst school in Leicester?

    Bruh this school is dun out imagine taking a autistic kids phone for a week just because he checked his phone for the time. Also during covid my french teacher ms Bartlett told me and my friend to take our masks off even though we said we don’t wanna take it off for our own safety, at the end we had to take it off or we would get isolation for the day.

    Shocking school

    The food that they try to feed the students is abysmal, the rules only apply to certain students (meaning if the teachers like them or not) banned mobile phones because of a small amount of misuse outside of school. Teachers joke about students in their native languages. Most non-speakers can understand them. My child was bullied by another group of students. We had screenshots of vile messages that had been sent to him. The school completely ignored them, saying that the screenshots could have...

    Not as great as portrayed.

    Some rules are very useless and I found some teachers to be incompetent. I have had experiences with quite an awful science teacher in year 9. Despite many people complaining it took a year for that teacher to be dismissed. The break out areas were made for students to work in yet we were banned from using them suddenly. Their approach to Covid-19 safety was below average at best. There was alot of miscommunication and terrible foot traffic systems. During the pandemic they decided to make buildings a two way system and forced students to enter from opposite doors causing alot of trampling and no social distancing. They also cut breaks very short and kept making them shorter every term. The food is inedible and meat is undercooked. Due to the pandemic we were not allowed indoors. We spent our breaks and lunches freezing and it was only towards the end of the winter term they let us indoors. The uniforms are quite expensive. I got a voucher for mine as I had the old uniform already. Its the best school in the area but it's not a great area and Leicester is not a great place for a good public education.
