Awful place
Teachers hold personal grudges against students and engage in gossip with students. Poor attitudes and lazy.

lying to justify their actions.
tend to like to suspend me for example for no good reason, multiple times a week holding me in until 3, it’s been agreed i leave at 12 multiple times funnily enough that’s one of the reasons they suspended me. they like to back track on their words and make school a living hell. i’ve been internally suspended since september. no reason given. they tend to lie about what my mum has said to them too to justify their actions, i’ve talked to my mum about this. since she last got ahold of them, they’...

Poor sixth form (especially the head, Eugene Spiers)
The head of sixth form as well as its staff are very good at making false promises, but useless at actually supporting pupils. My daughter informed me how she was effectively told by her head of sixth form as and her english teacher that she should seriously reconsider university despite her trying her hardest. They made it out as if she had not been doing the work despite her staying afterschool most days for independent study. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE, Hardenhuishes facilities are vastly better and the teachers there actually support the pupils!

Terrible school, do not recommend
School is terrible, the "anti bullying system" doesn't even work, all they do is tell you to keep reporting. I have been reporting for 2 years and nothing happened, the worst punishment a student can get for bullying is basically a 20 mins detention and in some rare cases 1 day suspension. Teacher doesn't even look out for bullying even if its happening right Infront of them.

Be more understanding
It’s a good school but there isn’t many indoor places for lunch and break and the food is not very nice .some teachers are ok but are very short tempered and don’t understand when students struggle to focus

it is ite
it’s alright i guess but still pisses me off with unnecessary uniform and phone rules. like you have to walk off school premises to text someone even if it’s after 3:00?? teachers are mostly ok with a small few of them being funny and enjoyable. on the other hand, there are a small few which i can’t stand. not going to mention any names… chavs/roadmen or whatever need to fuck off though, can’t stand them thinking they’re cool. skanky girls hang out in the toilets which is pretty grim, apparently they choose to chat shit in the room where people shit. makes sense i guess. overall, could be worse. probably just as good as any other british secondary school: tries to act sensible but is filled with thousands of child-sized disappointments. 3/5
