St Bernard's High School

My experience at this school so far has been positive. I agree they could communicate with parents a lot better but this is not a concern yet.

JESUS H CHRIST ITS HELLLL KILL ME THIS SCHOOL MAKES ME WANT TO JUMP OFF A BLOODY 17 STORY BUILDING AAAAAAAAAAAOEOARGH

I went to this school year 7 - 11. The worst time of my life. It affected my mental health so badly. I was bullied for years and years, no sign of change even after several statements, conversations with the former headteacher Mr S and the deputy head teachers which will remain anonymous. My mental health has plummeted downwards even after leaving this school last year and that's when I knew this was going to sit with me for the rest of my life, because of the lack of care given towards my bullying issues. I started self harming because of the bullying and the school did absolutely nothing about it. My head of year, who is still the head of year 11, was absolutely rubbish at their job. No idea why they hired them. They drove me to a panic attack one day last year and all they spoke about was my GCSES!! Which lead to me stressing out more! I lost the ability to breathe properly and there they were, carrying on, running her mouth about how I'm going to fail my GCSES if i keep causing myself to have panic attacks due to me not being comfortable in the lessons. Absolutely astounding. They're the reason why I did not achieve some of the grades I wished to achieve! So thanks for that, I hope they fire you soon. There were also times that I was punished for being the victim in a situation for retaliating, and the bully was let off with no punishment at all? Don't send your children here, I can't sweat it enough. I would also like to mention the amount of time this school wastes on unnecessary religious events for the older years when they could be using that time for GCSE studies. It's absolutely outrageous. The fact we did not and they still don't get a choice to whether they attend these religious events astounds me. This school does not show any sign of improvement, so again, don't send your kids here!!

Bullying is rife, zero mental health awareness and teachers speak to the children appallingly. Would not recommend this school to anyone. 6th form has a mean girl clique, even though people have complained about them yet nothing is done. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE

This school is questionable. They don't care for your mental health. They just push you and push you to "succeed" when really it's just extreme pressure and expectations too high. Some of these teachers actually show their hate for kids and teens on a daily basis someone could literally die and the school would probably just try to keep their reputation. Detentions and certain punishments are unfair and teachers favourite students when there are arguments or disputes. This school needs to fix itself.

Doesn't care about you at all and we’re very racist towards my black friends. Please don’t send your child here for there safety
