its okay
i wont be sending my kids here anymore my son was bullied and the school knew about it for months and dint do anything to the point he had to move schools and they still didnt do anything to help but they did help with overall mental health introducing the gateway system, a separate learning place for people who struggle with mainstream schooling.

I wouldnt send my child here
This school has some good teachers but I personally do not like this school, they have form time after the first lesson? Only school that I know that does this is this school and it is very strange, if you are 5 minutes late to lesson you must sit in the hall for a hour after school the next day with the choice to do homework or work? What if you are late to school for traffic? A hours detention for makeing up 5 minutes it's ridiculous especially as most children would like to use the toilet bef...

Avoid the sixth for all together
Terrible school, in the sixth form teacher very rarely turn up to teach the lesson when the so they are very late, the computer science class might as well be a self taught subject as teachers hardly ever show up at all.

A real shame
Gone massively downhill and SEND department too overstretched to provide required help- pastoral and Head of Year poor too. Behaviour impacts on students who want to learn

Recent decline.
As a former GCSE student I believe, after the new headteacher there has been a severe decline in the arts and the behaviour, misbehaving students are getting away with more and are facing less punishments, maybe due to their lack of care for the repeated punishment. Overall not very satisfactory. Nearing the end of my time at Sweyne I had lost all motivation to study, often rare in a typically good student. This could possibly die to the lack of motivation given from staff, or the “bad vibes” given off by the school I’m general. Also, when revising for the GCSE’s I felt I was very behind on many subjects specifically due to the teaching. I commonly found that subjects hadn’t been covered enough or some parts were completely left out. However there were those few teachers, who helped me through a bad school day, who truly knew the best ways of teaching, and who have allowed me to gain amazing marks.

Amazing food and grades.
Its amazing school. I'm in year 10 and in the covid pandemic been hard but my teachers are also there. My form tutor gave me something of his own money to help my stress a punching bag. Every lesson is great and teachers are too, food in the cantee can be better an cheaper but its good over well and in some lesson people are very noise but the teachers control then great in total

it’s a decent school
it’s a good school, the majority of the teachers are helpful and not too strict. it’s a decent sized school so there’s a lot of classrooms so there aren’t to many people packed into a room and they can have enough sets to help people with different abilities in a subject i think it’s a pretty good school
