    dont go to this school.

    if your planning to go to this school or planning to send your child to this school , dont . teachers are lazy and careless and dont bother to teach properly, they hand you printed worksheets and expect you to work through them whilst slacking off on their wheelie chair. they read off powerpoint slides instead of engaging with their students, if your child has a learning difficulty they will do nothing to support you. if you struggle with mental health, they will do nothing to support you even i...

    horrible school

    if i could use harsher words i really would have. i’m in year 11 just about to leave and i have seriously wasted my teenage years because of how bad the support in this school is. first off, the students have no decorum nor do they have respect for each other. you’d think younger years would have respect for their elders, but no. they’re disrespectful and violent. whenever i go to a member of staff they pretend to care for a few minutes and then pass me onto someone else like i’m a burden. i lea...

    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 peop...

    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 neurodiv...

    Avoid at all costs

    No words to describe the discriminatory treatment I have received from this high school , discrimination , racist and classism in which just for being a foreigner to them, they will treat you as some sort of criminal , constant calls almost making non sense accusations to kids they dislike while others receive privileged treatment doing exactly same thing . I would not recommend anyone to send their children in a place like this .

    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.

    Disgusting school

    There is no discipline at all at this school. Bullying rife. Disregarded by teachers. Academic standards are rock bottom. High turnover of staff. Half of the pupils can't speak English. Drugs and drugs dealing on school premises are rife, as are blades. High staff turnover. Teachers do not stay. High levels of staff sickness as the school is so bad. Pupils brainwashed with woke bilge. The school dinners are like pigswill and might as well be served in a trough. Beal is a disgusting school.
