Permanent closure
I am deeply concerned about the serious safeguarding issues that I believe have been allowed to take place at The Ellen Wilkinson School for Girls. There have been allegations and reports of girls bringing knives onto school premises, fighting, forming gangs, stealing from shops, and becoming involved in other criminal activities. These are extremely serious matters that should never be tolerated in an educational environment. I am also extremely concerned that both of my daughters have been ne...

wrong way to go
this school is quite depressing as i join in year 7 and now I'm year 8 while being bullied the whole time through. The teachers haven't done anything about it while i was here this has been the same problem with 2 of my older sisters who also attended this school.my mother has sent countless email and the teachers to seek for more help but, still haven't done anything about it. This is also a problem with my friends who were bullied at school. The teachers don't care about the children's mental...

Disappointing school
This school is quite depressing, I compare others highschool experiences to mine and im so envious of what they have- ive been bullied since I first started this school (in year 7) and im still experiencing this abuse in year 11, the teachers know about this and they wont take any further action other than taking the bullies out of their lessons; I find this extremely unfair because i feel that what i went through deserves to be taken more seriously, my mother has sent countless amounts of email...

WHY ELLEN IS NOT A GOOD SCHOOL
This school preaches its great results when in reality they only praise and focus on high achieving students and leave everyone else for themselves as someone with dyslexia this school had not helped at all not giving me extra support not even recognising it at all not even telling my english teacher. A number of the teachers are just rude and act like the students have no feelings. For example as a student with social anxiety i got my friend to ask a teacher if we could go and get some water at break time the teacher then shouted at me saying i need to speak for myself and embarrassed me in-front of other staff and pupils. This same teacher has put my isolation for “not being in a line” however i had been walking to it and other students were to and has also sworn at a child with little punishment. I am however not saying all teachers are like this as the odd few are very nice. The school also does nothing about racism blaming students for other students calling them racist words.This school has lowered my self esteem and mental health. In conclusion if you want a happy and equal environment i would NOT recommend this school.

Teachers
Overall, the teachers genuinely care about their students’ achievement and care about their mental health and I would argue this is the most important aspect of school to look at.
