    Not recommended

    Turner Free School I don't recomande. They have a nice smile, looks friendly but are so fake. It's like smile nice in your face but when you turn your back isn't the same. I am very very very disappointed and are not organized. ?

    My honest opinion about this slum

    This school is awful the staff are completely useless unless it benefits them in any shape or form and are awful people i thought after so many years This place would be better but no every story I hear about this school is genuinely corrupt and wrong especially after hearing how my brother got assaulted by another student and he defend himself only to be punished for it while the boy who assisted him got no punishment at all genuinely this place needs shutting down

    Terrible

    Not as bad as other schools in the area, but still terrible. got sexually assaulted by another pupil in my class on the way back from a school trip in year 7 and when i reported it to my head of year he didnt care, the other pupil didnt get any repercussions or anything. stopped going to this school shortly after.

    Disgracefull

    The school as an awful trait of victim blaming and will only deal with situations such as bullying when the child being bullied fights back , then punishing the victim. No matter how many times its reported. Most of the staff are respectable but many are leaving when they get the chance which I think says enouth about the school in itself.

    Safeguarding a serious problem

    I have given 1 star due to the lack of safeguarding of our children in the school. Bullying is rife with physical and mental abuse, the abusers constantly get away with their behavior, no consequences because no 3rd party witness.. due to witnesses fearing reprisals. This use to be a great school but it has seriously deteriorated, hence why so many good teachers have now left!

    Terrible school..

    Awful is the only word I can use to describe the school. The staff do not adhere to the polices set out and do not take bullying seriously. Very poor management.

    This school is probably one of the best, and if not, then the best in Folkestone. Students are treated with respect by all teachers and everyone’s needs are met. Lessons are taught in an understandable way, and you are given a grammar type education without needing to take a test. They teach you in a way that will prepare you for adult life. We are offered a variety of school trips every year which also help us to prepare for our future.
