Overall the school is fine never really had any issues with other students in my year but it worse in the younger years. Certain members of staff aren’t the greatest (Dundas) as well as the some staff treat the older years far too childish and still treat them as primary kids which as a young adult can be very frustrating
Horrible school, Never helped with bullying/Sexual harrassment issues. head of year struck someone and broke their leg. Focused more on kids who were either violent and refused to learn rather than kids who wanted to learn but had issues. Teachers were often rude and dismissive. Traumatizing time there.
It is definitely not the best school in East Kilbride, I'll say that.
I have been attacked on two different occasions and the school hardly did anything to help, and I have dealt with sexual harassment and they did nothing.
Worst place I’ve ever encountered. Absolutely soulless, classrooms are crap and so cold, pupils wear their jackets and use their phone in class, walk out when they want and the curriculum is not great, no smart board or anything to enhance the learning. Worst place ever!!!
Calderglen is already known in East Kilbride for not handling/ dealing with students particularly with bullying.
Spend 1 day in the school and you’ll see exactly why it’s got the reputation it has.
calderglen is already known for not dealing with bullying etc in East Kilbride. some aspects of the school are really good however the not so good parts out weigh the good ones.
