Unfair and not professional
This school has went from bad to terrible, they say they care for students and there mental health but they don’t they push it to the side and makes it out like and it’s nothing and doesn’t matter,all they care about is you being in the class and what your wearing , if you don’t know how to do work in the class and you ask for help most teachers ignore you or don’t know how to help you theres lack of support systems in place with stability for children with dyslexia,ADHD,anxiety etc. There pushe...

Absolutely horrible
DO NOT GO HERE. This school is absolutely horrible, I’m so happy I left. At my time in this school I felt hopeless, let alone care for my education. Teachers constantly gave me anxiety and made me not want to have a future. The English depart was regularly absent and a specific teacher constantly talked about inappropriate things which should NEVER be discussed at school. The math department was a mess; people in my year could not do simple calculations and the head of math was in prison for a c...

not bad
Some very nice teachers who want the best for you while others will do everything in their power to get you in trouble for the most minor of things. Many are on a power trip most of the time however some are the nicest, most down to earth people ever.

Mental health
It seems no one notices bullying and singling out of students. I agree they seem to only be concerned with attendance and not how students mental health is.

Horrible school
This school is horrendous , Bullying is pushed to the side , Guidance department are horrible at there jobs and do nothing to help the students and particularly pick out favourites , Language department team up on pupils including myself and would speak in German,French etc about a pupil in front of them in a language they couldn’t understand , Home economics department is amazing, My younger brother is now at this school and a pedophile is now working as the head of Mathematics which is extremely unprofessional, Headteachers make students throw any juices in the bin including some food (I know as this was done to me) while we are living in economic crisis and have no right to tell anybody to do this, Constantly low of staff and have had numerous teachers that don’t teach , The only acceptable departments in that school are Science and Home Economics. This school is horrible and would never been think about sending a child there.

only about 7 good teachers here now
As a current pupil here i can honestly say that most of the teachers here are bad, the only ones i get on good with are the modern languages department, home ec, one re teacher and one pupil support teacher. The guidance department do not help, they don’t do anything about problems in the school. I saw a guidance tell a s3 pupil who was smoking to go away from the office and letting him get away with it

School
Now a former S6 pupil who is enjoying the freedom and laughing off at this school, you may have read my review from Sept 24th, 2020, I was kind of shocked that someone said that the modern languages dept is ganging up on people as I went along good with these teachers and they said to me I could always visit them. But in terms of shortages of teachers then yes, this is a huge problem in this school, which happened to me a lot in S4, S5. Last year it was kind of understandable because of coronavirus. Although there's one teacher in the English department who made me barely pass English and everyone in the class hated her and complaints made no impact whatsoever, I managed to go away with a C in higher English but I could've bumped it to B or A if she was actually present instead of being off-school a whole friking month in december last year. If you have her, then I am incredibly sorry for you. in terms of the rest like management, teachers supply, bullying etc then I still think the school is not good at dealing with these. It will probably be my last review on this school and all I can say is send your kids somewhere else, not to this school.

School
I use to go to this school, now my daughter goes ! To be honest this school is okay! Some of the teachers are kinda strict, some are nice and friendly .

don’t go here
this school is very bad, the teachers cannot teach the class, instead they make it their goal to send people out of the class for very minor things (like talking for 2 seconds). they complain that we don’t understand what they’re teaching but instead of going over it with us they just tell us that we should have listened better. They don’t encourage you to do anything and they just get higher members of staff to phone parents. They’re constantly short of staff and you will have a supply teacher...

ATTEND THIS AMAZING SCHOOL
VERY GOOD SCHOOL AMAZING TEACHERS VERY FRIENDLY

Terrible
As a S6 pupil I can say that this school is very bad. During my time at the school I spent a nearly a without a proper maths teacher. Almost half a year without a English teacher. On the other side this school has a amazing modern languages department with very friendly teachers. Most of junior pupils run around the school like they own the place, teachers receive abuse from them, they don't follow instructions and the management does nothing at all about it. There is a lot of drugs at the school and police is a daily sight now.

Used to be good but has went massively downhill.
This school used to be notorious for being the best school in the area, if you’re sending your child there because of this, those days are long gone. If you’re a neurotypical student with no mental health problems then you’ll be fine. If you aren’t though, prepare to be ignored, teased by staff, bullied, the list goes on. The staff don’t care if you’re being bullied, all they care about is you being in school. They have clear favourites when it comes to pupils and join in with making fun of the...

Teachers...
A S6 student here. I have mixed feelings about this school. Some teachers are nice and actually prepare you for the exams but others are atrocious: not controlling people, not teaching well/at all, don’t help you at all or they decide to stay off school for a MONTH. Because of that I had to self study THE WHOLE COURSE from a textbook and luckily achieved the grades that I wanted (but not enough for university).

Unsatisfactory School
a lot of bullying where the school would do nothing to help those involved.

Horrible for non neurotypical kids
They really need to do better, especially for neurodivergent kids, as well as kids with mental heath issues. There are things that aren’t great for neurotypical kids, such as pupils smoking on school grounds, vaping inside the school, constant class disruption, etc. However I’m mostly going to be talking about my experience as an autistic and mentally ill student. The pupil support department treated me horribly, by either completely ignoring panic attacks, or causing them. There are small r...
