UNFAIR TREATMENT OF TEACHER
The Head Teacher should Resign for throwing his Teacher under the Bus Regarding Religious Instruction !!
He should never have Apologised to the aggressors demonstrating for a lesson that had been given many times!!

YOU CAN GET A GCSE IN BAD MANNERS AND VIOLENCE HERE
this school is for the rough and ready type of students, bad manners must be a GCSE subject.
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
I did at one point love this school. now my opinion has changed.
LACK OF STAFF, nobody is ever available, and when messages are left no matter how serious you MIGHT get a phone call back. There are some lovely receptionists but half the time you talk to someone who thinks their one cut above the rest.
BULLYING is a massive problem here and never gets sorted it's just another normal day for staff because they deal with it all the time, detention is nothing to those kids just more time with their mates, and they will repeat and repeat because hey what is an extra 30 minutes to an hour with there mates. some of the time the kids don't even turn up, what can staff do drag them no they cannot. Some parents could not care less or have just had enough. The school should remove them to schools that deal with children like that. the children/young people who are there to learn would benefit in a good way when children like that are removed.
TEACHERS. There are some fantastic teachers there on this my opinion is divided. some teachers could not care less and the odd couple that look down on you. some act like "I am the all-powerful" they ruin it for the good members of staff,the bad teachers will always stand out more
SCHOOL DINNERS, IF your child comes home ripping the fridge door off understand the portion control is poor
POLICIES are not worth the paper it's printed on
when staff drop their godlike attitude and bullying stops and is dealt with properly then this school might get a really good score it needs attention I hope education is reading through this before attending the school. I have only given the rating a 2 because of the good members of staff that are there.

The dumps.
Absolute horrible behaviour, from pupils and a delayed reaction from teachers who are endlessly hop along to investigate issues. Hard bullying so not for soft going kids. Needs a revamp of expertise in this school.
School more like a detention centre total joke.
