Absolutely appalling behaviour!
I am extremely disappointed and upset by the way my daughter was treated on her very first day back at secondary school in Year 10. My daughter has struggled significantly with anxiety and school-related difficulties in the past. She has EBSA and has also experienced serious difficulties around eating, and because of her anxiety she did not attend school during Year 9 and was homeschooled instead. Returning to school for Year 10 was therefore a huge step for her. It took an enormous amount of c...

Not a good school.
Alot of bullying but pupils towards child and is hidden under the carpet. School uses there power against parents to protect there reputation than a child.

Dreadful. Avoid if possible.
Shocking treatment of children with some teachers no better than bullies who like to exert their own petty powers. What happened to duty of care and safeguarding. Not much of it going on at this school. Unfortunately, it's impossible to move schools in this area because the good ones are so over-subscribed. No wonder this one isn't.

Safeguarding concerns
This school had amazing reputation back in the day and I was so proud to hear that my children got space in the school. But all things changed, this school cannot cope or manage children with complex needs or learning disabilities. It's alarming that many staff they've got on school grounds who are cover Teachers which by law don't have the right to a child/Children care plan. So some children with are being discredited and belittled and penalize because these staff don't know anything about the...

Teachers are the biggest Bullies
If you want a School for your Child where the Teachers Bully and Intimidate the Students then you have come to the right place! I have never met a bigger bunch of absolutly disgusting Human beings in my life! And Tracey Savage, the head teacher, is the worst of them all! If you think I'm exaggerating, then do yourself a favour and look up the parents pages on Facebook and see what other parents are saying. Better still go to the School and approach the parents and have the discussion with them.

that school is rubbish, pile of poo if you ask me!. I would rather send my children to schools like Goodwin or royal harbour. Tracey savage seems to care more about the pay check then the actual pupils that attend the school. take my advice and don't send your children to this school

Special educational needs stay away!
Absolutely awful school. Discrimation against any additional needs. Moved my son from this school as they could not cater for his needs and failed to identify additional needs due to his disability. Do not send your child to this school if you have a learning need. Did not help at all

Bullying
Bullying issues not being dealt with for over a period of long time and no punishments for bullies

A detailed honest reailty of St's (read if you want to attend/parent)
STS often felt like it prioritiesed the wrong things. like many other reviews uniform was often put over welfare and the education of students with the additional lack of acknowledgement for its excessive price. if you had aditional needs you would often be disregarded and not supported properly. I had a friend who had to deal with severe dislexia all throughout his school life with 0 support only to go to a new school in year 12 and instantly get a test and amazing support that he really needed. Grades are also prioritiesed over welfare and the quality of teaching was often inadequate with an exception of a few teachers. from year 9 to 11 I did not have a biology teacher to teach me my GCSE's despite desperately asking for one. unsurprisingly our entire class did very poorly despite being the top set, we was also heavily balmed for this. this was due to the lack of teachers in the science department and I was told by one member that all staff where underperforming significantly. do not go hear if you like/want to do science. Additionally I had an openly rasist maths teacher who would continously bully and belittle students. he would target people for there height, looks, hair colour, gender (he was misogynistic ) and often made comments about the working class and people on benefits saying they was lazy and useless. one incident he made jokes about autistic people which was incredibly dehumanising and my classmate left the room as she was so hurt by what he said as she was autistic. I repeatedly asked for him to face repucussions from my heads of year and was told he wouldn't due to the fact he got students high grades. I was also told by members of staff that this bullying would extend to teachers also. Bullying was also a problem at this school and I certainly had my fair share, initially support was given but it will soon stop and there are never any repurcussions. All supply teachers where very unbothered and would often not complete the tasks set by teachers, there was several periods of time when I had supplies for weeks so I would essentially get no education for those periods of time. drug/behavioral problems where mainly ignored except for when oftsed came and suddenly everybody was excluded, they would not support or help these students who did need it. Classes where often overcrowded as they continue to enroll more pupils each year despite overgoing the capacity. The sex/health education was also incredibly poor and very uninclucive, I had many questions which where left unanswered and protraid it very unrealistically. despite this if you are artistic the art department is exceptional, all the staff are bitllaint, enthusiastic and lovely and have your best interest at heart. there are challenges at times with resources with the general art but I don't belive this extended to textiles and certainly didn't in photography. Although I wasn't sporty the optunities seemed very good. also I apologise for the many spelling mistakes I have dislexia and also received no support. Ultimately I did well at this school through a lot of hard work and at times very independently.

Bad school
Absolutely terrible school! Lots of bulling which the teachers ignore or blame the wrong child. Head of year 8 is useless, arrogant with no empathy at all. Bullies get away with everything and teachers say the kids are as bad as each other without trying to find out the truth, there are cameras which teachers don't bother looking at and won't let parents access so why bother having them. My child was assaulted by an adult connected to a pupil at the school and guess what they tried to say it was...

Ex student
I use to attended this school, the teachers are unprofessional and sometimes known to wind up and aggravate students in their time of need, the head cares more about uniform than meant all health and students, the cafe is overpriced to many student go the day without food, counselling is poor and gives very little support, they don’t take bulling or problems seriously, I got marked down on my GCSEs because the teacher didn’t look in my work book for my work! Overall poor experience and very happy to of left

Okay school
It is okay but being a student there is a very different how it can be described than if I was a parent Moast complaints rarely happen unlike how they are seen but all prices are insanely high (uniform and food) but the cookies are rly nice busses to and from school are always very overcrowded teachers do care more about what your wearing and how you’re wearing it than educating the students but I have had some really funny classes

It is okay
I currently attend this school and it is not good nor bad. It has a lot of requirements to meet for it to become absolutely amazing, including actually supporting their students. There are some good things, such as the food and the outdoor space as well as the fact that all the aspects of the curriculum are taught. Sometimes it can be difficult to learn in the environment they provide, such as some classes may have more students than the capacity can hold or some teachers may not be able to teac...

Worst school
Wouldn’t recommend, teachers are unprofessional and feel unqualified. The rooms are very small and squashed. The head cares more about your grades then your mental health. Very unsupportive and didn’t tolerate bullying in the slightest. They do not care about you here

Horrible experience
Maths department is terrible, the math rooms stink of urine and are always too hot so the stench is even worse

Poor school
Absolutele sh*t, im an ex student and they could not control the students and half of the teachers didn't even know what they was doing!! The head mistress cared more about what you was wearing than your actual learning. Such a poor school, and wouldnt recommend it. The art department and the history department are by far the most supportive. English, maths and science is a let down to be honest. The school needs to focus on actually supporting the kids, making sure they're safe and not bullied,...

It's wholesome and worth it
Really supportive staff. Good experience and good teaching. Only downfall can be how some students act but really it's pretty good.
