My experience
Amazing school with excellent supportive teachers.but could use some work in areas.rewarding students for good behaviour and just going to lessons.
Slay the school away
Such a slay school honestly😍 I feel it should be narrowed down to only 1 day a week tho🤔 I think you should take that into consideration perhaps. Love the toilets😏 such a slay place to be tbf😩
average
weirdest three years of my life smh
personally wouldn't recommend but if you're forced to go there then.... well. keep your head down and follow the crowd bestie
also, if you're bullied - nothing is done. it's better to handle it yourself rather than bother reporting it. got told by x they're gonna bash my head against the fence and nobody really got concerned.

Sending your child here? Prepare for the worst
Unfortunately having a school in the centre of Monkwick isn’t going to end well. Crass and loutish behaviour in every year, rough and violent environment for students. Sending your children here is signing them up to crime and gangs.
As for the education itself, it’s average. Some teachers are good and helpful, others aren’t. From what I’ve seen the student is always powerless against the teachers and staff regardless of who’s in the right. Some very good school trips but most are massively overpriced. I would not recommend this school and it needs serious improvement, but I’m not sure if that will happen due to the location.

My review :)
So far my experience has been good, I haven’t sadly had the full experience due to covid, but from everything I have experienced so far it’s amazing :)
Teachers need consequences
Good education but consequences for teachers need to be bigger, a certain teacher had multiple warnings from experiences of belittling children and talking with them about things that aren’t appropriate for a teacher to be discussing with students. This same teacher also did a students coursework for them while the students did each others hair
Terrible
Terrible staff, never helped me with homework or work inside of school, the disciplinary action doesn’t work and the school never helped me be comfortable in my own skin. The process for helping Transgender and Non-Binary students takes up to 6 months for a name change on the system and there is no consequences for racist, homophobic, xenophobic, sexist students.

My reasons why are that the school dose absolutley nothing about bullying. I had an incident in school where I was pushed into lockers and pushed down stairs. You could see this all on the school's security cameras, and they told me they "cannot do anything as just a minor incident and could have been an accident", but I had gone to a teacher a couple of days before to explain how we fell out and that she was bullying me inside and outside of school. She put me in counselling and told me they would help, but they didn't. The school had made me out to be dramatic. This happened when I was a year 8 student and had a lot going on at home, as my parents were divorcing and bullying on top of that, and the counsellor laughed at her trauma and told me everyone goes through that, which is ridiculous. I am surprised at the behaviour of this, especially as the teachers go around talking about students to other students, which is unacceptable considering school is meant to be a safe environment for us
