Unfair treatment of students with long term health conditions
Not a good school if you have a child with a long term illness - no support whatsoever. They also target certain students and have preformed opinions so do not give certain children a chance. Due to my child being ill a lot, which is not in their control, they are not allowed to go on the rewards trip because of their authorised absences. Singling out children because they are ill is so unfair.

Bullying
My experience at St Monica’s was very disappointing and distressing. I attended the school until Year 10, and during that time I was constantly bullied because of my disability. Despite this being raised, the bullying was not effectively addressed or controlled. We were told that the school did not have the resources available to prevent the bullying and that this was not the right school for us anymore. Rather than feeling supported, I felt pushed out. As a result of the ongoing bullying and...

Such a good school now the worst in the borough
Behaviour appalling both in and out of the classroom. Corridors and break times are not safe. There are groups of children intimidating others and there aren't any sanctions in place. Due to the behaviour in the classroom there is little learning/ teaching taking place. 70% of the children are out of control and the senior leadership team are unable to address this. It needs a clean sweep and a new senior management team My children attended this school and I previously worked there as a TA. I f...

Racist attitude from the school management.
This school need to change. They've got this racism attitude towards the black kid there. How come the special awards always go to the white kids alone every time an award is given. I'm unto them been observing them underground. And soon I'll contact the press and the ofsted regarding this. Black kid will succeed in Jesus Christ mighty name ?not you or anyone can stop that okay.

From Y10.
The school is absolutely awful, please do not listen to any other people, it's a racist, horrible school and they do not care for anything. The food is mouldy. The fights are absolutely violent, people kicking people into their faces and everything. The teachers stand by and watch it, they won't do anything. I really recommend, ANY other school than St Monica's RC Bury High School. I mean it. The teachers are racists, they're horrible to people with disabilities, as I've witnessed. The canteens...

SCHOOL IS NEGLIGENT
This school staffs need some serious job to do. The incessant unruly behaviour of their pupils is getting too much and unbearable for the good pupils among them. And this disruptive unruly behaviour always happen right inside the school premises not outside. Now the question is why are these teachers oblivion to all these inappropriate behaviour. Student vaping. Student fighting. To mention but few. The other time. A student blazer was torn apart and his ties ripped off by another student. And yet none of this teachers will see this to correct this unruly antisocial behaviour. I'll personally take this up. If they don't do something. Teachers need to put their eyes and ears to the ground. In the school vicinity to see what's going on among the student. Their camera isn't helping at all. If Ofsted rate them inadequate now. They'll think Ofsted is been irrational. Not they not. You need to buckle up as a school and do the needful.

I hate it.
Not a good school. I am a year 9 student at this school with special needs and the help this school provides me is awful . The school feels trapped like a prison with no escape and it changes my life at home and leaves me so drained that i only ever want to lie on my be in my room .

Okay
It’s not a bad school but it could help the year eleven students better by actually teaching helpful things in revision sessions
