    Horrific

    My daughter was severely bullied to the point where she was hospitalised and has had to be medicated as she has PTSD from the severe bullying she endured. The school was so unhelpful, blaming her & I and saying there’s nothing they can do; the pastoral lead, Dede Kadila, was the worst - when my daughter came to her crying, she told her to be quiet and shamed her. Horrific school and horrible pastoral support, luckily my daughter has moved to another school.

    Dump and still is a dump to this day

    This place was a dump and still is a dump, I went here back in the late nineties/ early two thousands. I had the worst time ever bullied for my learning difficulties, beaten up for being mixed race oh and put in hospital twice for my injuries. The head teacher at the time was about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Do not send your children here.

    Worst Secondary school in London? Quite possibly!

    Unprofessional and unsympathetic staff, not helpful at all - I witnessed bullying amongst staff too. They have very low expectations for the students. Behaviour management was atrocious too.

    Worst secondary school ever

    This is such a bad secondary school. You go to them for help regarding your mental health and say you’re being bullied and they go “we’ll sort the problem” and go to your bullies and make the situation way worse for you. Don’t send your child here
