worst school
worst school in derby. absolutely horrible i couldnt list everything wrong but that would take too long. they dont care about the students unless they are white and they dont keep anything anonymous and safety for students is horrible and the headteacher is a racist. if you get robbed and you tell them who did it they wont do anything and blame you for bringing the item in and dont sort it out no matter the price and they blame you for every small thing that happens and the teachers are very disrespectful to students but expect 100% respect from students. quick to kick you out if it benefits them and have no fair system. JUST RACIST! Do not send your kids here. people smoking weed and vaping outside the school gates or in school and people jumping you in and out of school and all they get is 1 day exclusion. horrible learning too so far behind on everything
horrible
fights every other week vaping in the toilets and people with knives. language is horrible DO NOT GO HERE toilets stink and dont lock teachers are racist a teacher told a srudent to go backto his country

I'm a yr10 of 2021 .
The school isn't the best but it's misunderstood. People used to say to me I'd get beaten up but it rarely happens

Disguting
Only been there for 1 and half year (because of covid) and some of the teachers are so bad .You can raise your Hand for help and they will look at you and ignore you. The behaviour is awful. Some people bring in knives and jump people after school and threaten them which makes me afraid to even come to school without protection.There is maybe 5 decent teachers i can trust. Even my form tutor ignores me and goes off complimenting the people beside me and ignoring me.The maths teachers just give up and hand us the work without explaining and flick through a power point. The English teacher ignores and then waffles on how she got bullied when she was younger,2 of the science teachers just ignore you. Wish this school was better the teachers make me wanna h@n g myself.
Enjoy
This school isn’t bad but it’s not the best the behaviour of younger students is terrible some teachers don’t know half their job. I hate every single teacher there😁

Not very good
This school is very bad for behaviour and the support isn’t very well built such as bullying i have been turned away many time and all they say is we’ll talk to them but they never do anything. there is a well being team but they don’t help much. Theres only a few decent teachers who know what they’re doing and some of them just have a doss about and don’t help or tell you off for doing your own style of working! The younger children are so rude and cheeky it’s unbelievable
