DO NO ATTEND
Very poor school They don’t pick up on bullying they just let it go No support what so ever Poor communication They choose favourites and favouritism is always on the people that don’t attend Poor behave kids get treated for good behaviour but the kids that are good never get any good treatment Overall it was the worst school ever and would never recommend to anyone

It's not like I have a choice..
The Education here is absolutely horrible! Students are always misbehaving in lessons, there is no space for learning. The Safety here too, one of my friends got attacked and the school turned a blind eye to it. Someone got injured in my class yet the teacher put them outside and didn't let us speak to them. We can get detentions for breathing here. Staff are biased towards students. The toilets are always vandalised and the school only cares about their ofsted rating. Half of the school staff...

Terrible, look for an alternative.
My daughter goes to this atrocious school. They lack basic facilities like working taps, toilets, doors, pens, books. This school is terrible and you should not send your child to this school by any means, it has flooded before and they didn't take any notice until one of the buildings were completely flooded. They send threatening emails and letters home which can be daunting for parents that struggle. They have poor facilities to help children struggling with mental health or disabilities. The...

Avoid - requires improvement
Went down noticeably since previous Head, having become overrun with bullies and chavs, and many good teachers having left (understandably).

0 star
Should have a zero star option They bully students and families, especially vulnerable ones. All they care about is the school statistics and reputation and will do anything and cut any corner to feel like they are achieving this. The students aren't 'people' here they are numbers & percentages on their spreadsheets and it's very obvious and :( very sad. The teachers are verbally abusive shouting and screaming daily at the students which seems to escalate the problems

DO NOT GO
It’s so bad i would give it zero stars but i can’t so i have to give it a one. The teachers are completely biased and so are the senior leadership team. It’s unfair how certain students can get away with things others can’t. All they care about is how the school looks to OFSTED and don’t care about how the students actually feel. The toilets are always destroyed and vandalised. They don’t know how to use real discipline, so they just use suspensions as a punishment thinking that it would change anything. They have a shortage on food and if you’re not quick enough, then you will go throughout the day with no food. They don’t care about students mental health or disabilities. They’re always praising the bad behaved students when they do something good rather than praising the good behaved students. The teaching i’ve very poor and most of them can’t handle the bad behaved students, resulting them to get sent out of the lesson which makes them lose education.

Bullying teachers
Teachers are bullies who don't really care about students they just care about ticking boxes and keeping the schools reputation up. Silly rules changed daily . No coats allowed and have to be taken off before they go inside the building this rule doesn't apply to teachers . Maybe they should practice what they preach .

Bullying is tolerated and brushed hnder the carpet
All 3 of my kids have had issues with bullies and continue too.. 1 of which has had issues with one boy for 3 years who has been suspended 3 times? ( 3 mini breaks from school he calls it, its like a reward) dont recommend this school, Only reason my kids are theyre still is i cant get them into another school at present

It's shit
The only thing the school cares about is people getting good grades and they don't know how to deal with people who misbehave, they just shoot at them which obviously does nothing beacsue they keep doing the same thing. There are some special needs people in my year who get bullied quite a lot but teachers don't do anything. Two of my friends were bullied by the same guy and they bearly did anything. Teachers at this school don't understand that we learn differently aswell. Just beacsue one student understands the work completely, doesn't mean any one else does. The toilets are discussing aswell they bearly get cleaned.

Don’t come here it’s shit
This school is absolutely shit please don’t come here they don’t give a flying fuck about you and they never will. All they care about is getting a reputation on the school. About four people in my class got bullied out of the school and the teachers didn’t even do anything about it

Should have burnt the school down in food tech.
The school is Absolutely rubbish they never let you go the toilet when you need to the teachers are very strict and annoying and horrible and they really don’t give a crap about the students at all and expect us to do all this homework in one night when I’m tired and want to sleep but I’m made to stay up until god knows that time writing pages and pages of work and they don’t even read it- sort yourselves out

shit
they don't give a shit about students mental health and students with disabilities. they only care about the reputation of the school. they are always too busy to talk to you about mental health and don't care about helping students with disabilities

this school only cares about the reputation
They are good at academics but not if you have a learning disability all they do it tell the kid off. There's a person in my class and they has a disability and gets bullied by people in my year teachers don't do shit. Also they are shit at helping with mental health problems they don't do anything to help. If you are struggling this isn't a good school to go to
