    Great school

    As a parent, our main wish is that our children are happy and thriving. I can honestly say that my son is both. His confidence and self esteem have come along in leaps and bounds thanks to the staff and pupils of the John frost school. His grades have significantly improved since moving here, and after a decade of school refusal every morning, he is happy to come to school every day. The senior leadership team are a master class in leading from the front. The Maths and science departments are excellent as are the expressive arts. They are truly diverse and inclusive and I can't recommend the John frost school enough.

    Just Bad tbh

    It's just generally horrible, the only positive is the food which still has a down side because you have to fight in a queue to get a crusty panini

    Absolutely terrible school

    My experience at this school was far from ideal. The majority of the buildings were in poor condition, and it often felt like basic maintenance was neglected. The overall environment was not very welcoming, especially when it came to the students. Most of the students seemed more interested in acting like wannabe chavs or roadmen, which created a negative social dynamic. The school’s disciplinary system was frustratingly inconsistent. You could get a six-hour detention for something as harmless...

    The school is a very high educated place

    The education is amazing at this school. The six form is excellent with the high opportunities for students with extra curriculum activities and mostly math English science.

    Appalling school

    I’ve had a terrible time in this school, it’s ridiculously strict about small issues. Say you was 2 minutes late but this happened 3 times a week your child would be put in isolation basically detention for 6 hours. The school cares much more about uniform and the look of the school than the actual wellbeing of pupils. The majority of pupils are chavy or wannabe roadmen the bullying in the school is very likely for children who are different. The school ignores you if you’re having issues with mental health and can even call you a lier. The lessons are absolutely boring and I’ve learned almost nothing.

    Rife with bullies

    Some friendly teachers but ultimately a terrible school when it comes to dealing with bullying and harassment. The school is rife with young wannabe gangsters (chavs) and the majority of them are extremely disrespectful. Wouldn’t advise sending your children here especially if they’re vulnerable or unique as they’ll just get bullied and tormented relentlessly and the majority of the staff won’t do anything to stop it from happening.

    Not good to be at

    The staff like to overload students with homework, some teachers send students to isolation without reasoning. Williams and jones building really needs work dping to them, outside of them are crumbling. Terrible bullying tollerance wont help you if youre getting bullied like some schools in the catchment. If you were to tresspass into the site its ratger easy to go on school site too, just walk through main reception. You will be lucky to get past.

    Worst

    All staff are quite rude, Dr tyrrell is always looking up year 7's skirts. Hellen and Jane the pastoral staff are very self centered and obnoxious
