Shot show school
This school utter bullshit. The teachers apart from about 4 don’t care and only ever make an effort for visitors and ofsted. Pastoral team is lazy and doesn’t care. The rules are nonsense and the punishments for them are stupid. The only good thing that has come out of the school for me is my friends. Apart from that it is a terrible school and I00% don’t recommend unless you want to spend 5 years in hell ??

I haven’t been there since 2018 but I only got my paperwork from them in 2020. They kept changing the person who wa...

Teachers, culture and pastoral
Teachers cared so much for you when you gave then the chance to. Very widely accepting school. Great mix of cultures and ethnicity despite being a catholic based institution. Pastoral was good except many complained about the school therapist and their solutions for feeling sad/depressed to be horse riding, self harm isnt exactly cured by a little horseback riding, especially when your allergic.
