Head of year 7/English Teacher bad at her Job
Teachers here are incompetent especially the head of year 7 for academic year 2023-2024 since I can’t name her she’s an English teacher with the initial J.B screaming at kids face in front of classes, swearing and standing up for kids who bully others using threats to innocent kids! I as a student have seen first hand what she’s like and now treating my siblings and cousins in year 7 the same if not worse shouldn’t be allowed in a setting with kids if her behaviour is like that!
Overcrowded and awful.
Awful school, extremely overcrowded so classes are a nightmare. There is no discipline whatsoever, they just let the students run around. All of the good teachers resign after a year. It's a miracle I even got what I needed for college. From what I've heard, they've taken away anywhere to go during break. Honestly, it is a joke. Do not send your child here if you care about them. Or do, if you don't want them to get punished for anything and you want them to start carrying around knives and vapes.
Toxic Culture
Awful school in terms of both wellbeing and learning. Incompetent staff are only there for the paycheck and do not care for the students. Bullying is not only tolerated but ingrained in the school culture. Quality of teaching very poor, classes are chaotic and it is very challenging to actually learn anything. They haemorrhage both good staff and good students as they are unwilling to do their job properly. I would not recommend at all, and frankly ESTYN (the school inspection agency) need to put this place into special measures.
Not good
Well being do nothing about what you feel
Would be closed down if the UK had standards.
Incompetent elderly teachers enabling bullying of children, especially the disabled, if they're not directly bullying disabled children.
GCSE
Options
Limited GCSE options wouldn't recommend :/
