Im going to be leaving this school soon , so i thought i would do a review. I wanted to report this on the google reviews. But they disabled and deleted my previous review. The teachers here do not help at all, I had an incident happen to me in September where i got jumped for defending my “friend” from bullies, and after that i went to the nurses office sobbing. I told her to contact my mum - guess what. no contact was made. i told my mum over the phone that this happened and as a mother who cares for her child she came in really angry. And demanded to speak to a teacher. So obviously they couldnt send me home after i felt scared ,feeling unsafe. Then a few mins later SLT came and screamed at me for using my phone. What was i supposed to do? Go home and pretend nothing ever happened? I couldnt. So we spoke with a member of staff - the girl got 2 days suspension. But i always saw her in the halls and it gave me flashbacks. They even asked if i was moving schools but back then i said i wasnt. And then the “friend” i had , i dropped them. They never got a teacher. They stood there , smiling st me getting jumped in their place. While the teachers dont do anything. And the headteacher never contacted us about this, the head of house did , but you can tell she just wanted this out of the way, and to make this quiet. I cant believe how appauling this school is - they just want incidents to quiet down and say they are the best school in Portsmouth when they arent. It gave me severe anxiety and i had deppression too. I became isolated and then all i could hear was teachers screaming “go to lesson” , its too draining and hard. The teachers wouldnt fully help you. They say what can we do to help, then proceed to say “we cant do that” to every thing you say. Made me get bad mental health, would not recommend coming here all. I wouldnt be too surprised if this got deleted, again.
The cleaning of the school is appalling. Today there was blood covering the floor of the KS3 toilets it smelt repulsive. I was truly disgusted and disappointed at the level this school has fallen to. This is absolutely unacceptable and a violation to health and safety standards. Furthermore, on many occasions there have been cases where many female students have asked to go to the toilet due to their periods and they have been told “No”. This is absolutely inexcusable and inhumane from a “UNICEF rights respecting school” and they simply let female students bleed out on chairs claiming “the period excuse doesn’t work be more prepared”. Utterly shameful from this educational facility do better.
I got bullied about every single day, the teachers didn't care a single bit. I told the teachers and they said they would talk to them but they never actually did. The activities wasn't bad, I really did enjoy them but the students overall are horrible.
absolutely terrible school. the teachers there do judge you , i got jumped as i was defending my friend and nothing was done to the girl attacking me. they didnt even contact my parents , i told them about it myself and they shouted at me for using my phone in school hours , when they didnt even get in contact with my parents. did not check up on me. i wrote negative review before but they got it removed ,
This school is absolutely terrible someone has pinned you against a wall to the point you can’t breath and you try and kick them if you would be the one excluded and not them!
My experience with the school wasn't the greatest, if you had poor mental health and needed to speak to someone at school there is a waiting list which can take up to 2 years to be on. Before Ofsted visits teachers would tell us you must do all these sorts of things and if you are missing a jumper or your miss behaving they would put you in the iso room to keep you away from ofsted. Admiral has it's good days and the rest are so good.
I have been constantly bullied for my appearance bc I'm a female with a 'boy haircut' and the teachers just sit back and don't do anything let alone my tutor I will point her out she is in the English department and I get into a bit of trouble and when i do she takes my outsied the class and shouts at me and I have shouted back and gotten a dt for shouting 'stop shouting at me I don't like it ' that is bc of my past and don't don't get me started on the Homofobia in out shool and the sexism I for one have a yr 9 in my tutor who always tells the females in our class 'go back to the kitchen' or 'make me a sandwich bitch' and nothing is done to wards that
Previous student and couldn’t recommend the teachers enough, I’ve also herd how they are trying to support my younger sibling that goes there currently in regards to his behaviour/mental health and it’s heart warming to know how much they try to help him getting back to school, it really hasn’t gone un noticed. Thank you
All the teachers are moody and have an attitude. It’s basically a school ran by Michelle visages if Michelle was homophobic and Racist. Do not send your child here
