St Peter's Catholic High School

School food: Whilst it being vegan is a positive for it, it smells and tastes like cr@p. Burgers smell like dog poop, cakes are always raw, morning food is burnt, dry, bacon would be undercooked and the only good food at lunch is the chips, jacket potatoes and pizza, everything else is sickly.

Staff behaviour: Disgustingly unprofessional with neurodivergent kids, suspected neurodivergent kids, kids with invisible disabilities, or a child with any issues towards learning and clearly needs support. If a neurodivergent child misbehaves in a way that is given due to their neurodivergent condition, teachers will well and punish them, and in the future will target this child and make the children feel unsafe just because of mistakes they can't always control.

If children behave in ways that aren't severe and the teachers personally don't like or see the child as in the way they will unreasonably grab, push, corner or punish them.

Head teacher and staff have a history of being ableist, staff making insults towards neurodivergent children, children with down syndrome, head teacher refusing a pupil with a physical illness the right to freely check their phone to monitor their condition just because they were in the hallway, and believed the child would cause issues if people saw different rules applied to her, "we can't have people thinking different rules apply to you and not them," the girl was diabetic and she was incredibly low.

Mental Health management: Horrible. Near nonexistent due to how they don't actually help in the slightest. What's that? You're not in because you have severe mental health issues such as anxiety and depression as well as possibly many more, and struggle with thoughts of suicide? That doesn't matter, it's all about the grades, they're obsessed over attendance because the information of how low their attendance scores are are out for the world to see within just a few google searches.

Education: It's good until your child is suffering from bullying or mental health problems, this school WILL ruin your child and make them feel unloveable.

Security: Barely and doors locked, easy access for strangers, a student was r-worded and the teachers defended the offender.

Indoor Environment: The classrooms are literally falling apart, holes in the fake ceiling, cracked walls, destroyed toilets, science classrooms stink, gum infested desks and all they're focused on is implementing a new computer room, how cute!

Outdoor environment: Dirty.

The school love students who are gifted and talented and have no interest in any others. If your child has special needs this is the wrong school. There is a culture of nastiness among the SENCO team and the management team cover it up. Bullies have free reign. Facilities are worthy of a 1970s comprehensive. Dreadful place that tries to cling on to its past reputation of excellence under the previous head’s leadership.
If you’re a boy, forget it - you don’t matter here
If you’re disabled - make sure you don’t need any support

If you’re clever and need no support this is the school for you!
If you need any academic, emotional, or special needs support - please go somewhere else
Food is dreadful - and expensive.
Very cliquey teachers - and the teachers not in the clique do not have the guts to speak out
Old fashioned equipment
Inflexible attitudes
Reception staff rude
Everything is too much trouble
A nasty nasty place wrapped up in a Catholic facade.

At the end of the day great school. Food was ok and teachers were kind. Wide range of opportunities for all students. Made a great effort with collages. Maths, English and science seemed very difficult for my peers who where not academically gifted. Effort made to help those with mental health problems but mine developed later on and where only touched on once.

Would send my kids there.

Constantly subjected to bullying and harassment. Very anti-neurodivergent attitudes from teachers and student and bad mental health is ignored especially in high achievers and those who are doing 'just fine'. Considerable favouritism towards athletic and sporty people.
