Bay House School

I would like to share my daughter has been victimised and bullied by teachers ! She has 90% attendance she is doing so well and smashing h her exams and she has been told she isn’t allowed to prom after spending 100S POUNDS to go ! She deserves more than I can explain !! They are cruel !! I am disgusted! All because she forgot to take her nose ring out yet 100s of children wearing so much jewellery it’s an actual joke !

Terrible school, affected my mental health really badly to the point where they gave me in school counselling one time and forgot every after time. Shocking food, I had literal mould one one of my muffins (I have proof). Some of the teachers attitudes towards the pupils are terrible, last year was a very important year for me meaning I would need a decent teacher to make sure i’m prepared but I was given a new teacher after one term who could not teach. They shouted at the class for an hour and didn’t teach us anything. I’m also concerned about the background checks of some teachers because a few teachers are concerning. The school is also terrible unsafe, for example there was a year 8 walking around the school with a knife the other day. My class was just trying to learn and our lesson was interrupted by this random kid who shouldn’t even be at our school carrying a knife.

Overall this school drained all of the potential the kids have and by year 11 they produced a bunch of emotionally unstable teens. Great job!

General discipline and funny rules one can identify as a boy, girl, cat, dog, whatever they want. If they try to have a nose stud or a pair of trousers, that’s not quite to the school standard highlights in your hair. All of these are not to be accepted, but you can be a dog! Concentrate on a bit more of the 3Rs instead of these silly ideologies. Leave these views for the parents to install in their children rather than the school, imposing their standards on our children.

This school is not bad. Lots of Great teachers and lots to do.

Great school for everyone. I loved this school

I like this school alot

This school has really gone up in my estimation. Excellent setting and the teachers and classroom environment are great. The school clubs are very good and the school looks after new students very well.

The best school! I highly recommend!

School in over all is bad, toilet sinks don’t work, don’t let you go toilet, none of the toilets work and overall the school is just bad and no one likes it.

Rubbish is everywhere. The toilets are never really open and the school ground is just.. Bad.

Bay house school and sixth form used to be one of the greatest school in Hampshire; however I’m afraid it has had a drastic downfall. In numerous buildings within the school you can find mould along the ceilings and walls, sanitary bins with maggots crawling through them, and in numerous buildings taps that haven’t worked for years. The teachers at school expect students to always be available and turn up to school (and even put much pressure students with medical conditions and mental health illnesses to attend) yet they don’t remove the mould, which can cause us to fall ill. The school is also very protective of teachers, even if that puts students safety at risk. Teachers have been caught following young girls on social media, and watching people urinating at the urinals. These things have been reported to the school, yet nothing has been put in place other than teachers being made to unfollow the social media accounts and punishing the students who speak of the teachers watching students urinating. There has been drug use in the school toilets in the areas which the urinals are yet teachers don’t enter the facility to remove the drugs from the area yet when a student simply needs the toilet a teacher feels the need to watch. Furthermore the school does very little to support students mental health, and awards students who are cruel to their peers for simply doing what other students do on the daily. Students have been witnessed to be carrying weaponry such as knives, and even threatening other students with them, there has been numerous times where students have been assaulted and harassed by peers, and nothing is done to put a stop to this behaviour apart from a detention or two day long suspension, however when a student refuses to remove shoe tags from their shoe laces or take off a bracelet they can get a detention too, or if a student is wearing shorts which aren’t tailored they’re required to go home, change the shorts, and have to spend as much time as it had taken them to go home and return to school in detention.

It’s a good school that offers a lot. Although some of the teachers need to be better for example, the PE teachers. They are probably the least sympathetic teachers I know. If you twist your ankle and can hardly move on it “Walk it off you’ll be fine”. If you break your finger playing Netball, “I don’t think it’s broken, keep playing”. Some teachers are better though our Drama and English teachers are very nice and are practically everyone’s favourite. If you’re thinking about joining our school, I would advise you to do it just know that it is a very busy school with a sixth form.(Years 7-13 ages 11-18 up to 12,000 pupils). The corridors are quite busy and you can find yourself pushed around a lot. Our school is LBTQIA+ friendly and there is a support drop in every Wednesday lunchtime. If you’re in Year 8, I would highly recommend joining the Global Curriculum. They offer programs just for the tutor and it is a one year opportunity so if you miss it, you will regret it. The Global Curriculum offers programs such as the ‘Take two islands project’ where you learn about UNESCO islands such as the Isle of Wight and Rapa Nui (Easter island) and learning BSL (British Sign Language). You also get the advantage of learning 2 languages but the disadvantages are you can’t choose them and and you can’t go back to the one you were doing in year 7 in year 9. Overall I think that Bay House is a good school and is recommended trying it is right next to Stokes Bay and is very accessible (except it isn’t very wheelchair friendly, no ramps and two lifts although we are hoping to change that). I would recommend Bay House for those who are thinking about joining.

I can't belive how bad it is. My expectations were low going in but were absolutelty shatered in the first year. The toilets are revolting and going with in 5 feet will give you gonorrnhea. The teachers are beond bad and if they had hiered people off of the street we might have been able to learn something. The school does not care if about the sanitation of the toilets, I feel bad for the cleaners who are doing the best they can out of the abismall situation they are given. One time a random group of people got into the school, it got so bad the school called the police. If you go to this school yopu are most likely to come out with 9 STD's most of witch science haven't descoverd yet. If you do end up going to this school I hope you suvive, because the odds are agains you. You are most likely to be harmed by a student. The food is discusting all tho I have never tryed it my self students have told me they would raver drink rat poisen. Your beter off being home schooled rather than going to this abismall school.

I go an here’s the experience

Food ok but store bought some of it

Teachers good sometimes you can have a great teacher or a really bad one. An sometimes there biased we had an anti bully assembly. But the day before I was bullied an they did nothing even though I reported it


Students there’s these people normal an do nothing wrong an

The popular kids are just rude if your not there friend an are kinda Wannabe celebrities


An some kids take the mic out of some kids an special ed kids an treat them as “friends ,

An there’s usually a big thing going on at lunch that’s not good

Pretty terrible toilet situations and handling terrible teachers

The staff that work there only care about grades and not about the well-being of students. All staff clearly favour the naughty children and there bad behaviour is normally rewarded. The school does nothing about bullying or anything to help students mental health. They got rid of the school counsellor and nurse so there is no help for students. Would have rather been home schooled

This school is amazing. They are such a supportive school and the teachers put a lot of effort into helping the students with all sorts of situations. They are handling the Covid-19 situation so well with only about 8 cases in the past year and a half. Couldn't be happier about the effort that the school puts in to provide students with the best possible chance at succeeding. They are bulidng new classrooms and learning centres, offering extra classes to those who want to do more and constantly pushing their students to the top!

terrible with teaching and even worse when dealing with students with anxiety, ADHD, autism etc.

the catering teacher touches himself during classes

bullying isn't dealt with especially when it's pulling on race, sexuality

the covid-19 safety measures are not good enough and it's only a matter of time before the whole school has to be locked down because of it

so terrible i left 3 years early and it destroyed me completely, dont recommend😁👍🏻
