    literally awful in terms of teaching. ????

    students can be annoying, but teachers are worse. SO many one way systems and even asking why there is one in a non stuffy corridor will get you skinned alive. so many fights and so much bullying. an autistic boy got fed dog food in a year 7 class and he is still in school. i think that should say enough. teachers barely teach, and dont even get me started on marking.

    CHILDREN ARE THE PROBLEM!

    During the time I have been at Beal High School it has be quite well and the teachers are very kind and understanding most of the time. It is not the problem with the school and staff, BUT the pupils. The children are swearing and saying innapropriate things. Also having boyfriends and girlfriends at a young age which is an immediate NO for me. So going here is not really a bad idea except you might want to be wary of the children. In my opinion, it is best not to involve with these kind of people. Now on to the POSITIVES, the lunch is super tasty but maybe a tinnny bit overpriced like 2.50 for a sandwich? But still very tasty. The school also sorted out my problem IMMEDIATLEY with other students. Not sure if everyone else also gets speedy answers but I did. The teachers are very helpful and explain things nicely and are very funny. ANOTHER good thing is we are allowed to use phones at break and lunch which is super cool. And their learning process is really good. Thanks for taking the time to read this :)

    Do not go to this school.

    I would not recommended this school to any parent or student. The amount of racism and discrimination I have faced throughout this school is astounding. Students receive no repercussions for their behaviour whatsoever. Bullying, racism, or any deviant behaviour does not get dealt with, leaving students feeling unsafe. Mental health does not get taken seriously, so you on your own most of the time. If you have any learning difficulties, disabilities, are quiet/sensitive in nature, or are neurodiverse, do not attend this school, your needs will not be met or taken seriously. You will struggle to fit in or make friends as you are considered ‘odd’ to some people. Students are sometimes spotted just holding e-cigarettes, they is no safety or regulations. You struggle to learn effectively, as students with behavioural issues are not dealt with, or mostly supply teachers are taking over the class without knowledge of the subject they’re teaching.

    students are the most disrespectful lot

    its not that bad. teachers are good when it come to learning. lots of creativity although the art department ruins art for people who enjoy it. meals arent too bad. the kids are EVIL though. almost every student is racist even though the school is basically made up of asians, homophobic, transphobic, and ableist. they dont like people who are different in any way. its all "be yourself!" until it comes to beal.if you have any personal hobbies or if you're different in any way, you will be ridiculed. dont come to beal unless youre a chav or a roadman. so teachers are good but students bad.
