If you care enough about your children DO NOT send them here!!

My experience at this school was so horrific i left at the very start of year 11 after almost 5 years of abuse. i was bullied constantly and they claimed to not tolerate any sort of bullying but whenever i reported anything nothing was done. I had people talking about me on social media, being kicked in the lunch line and being told i was going to be raped by a few boys. I reported that and they said they would get police and parents involved. They did nothing. This school is an actual disgrace.

Since i have left some of my friends stayed to do A levels, and it has gotten even worse than i ever thought. Not allowing you to use the bathroom, not allowing any sort of personality. No makeup, piercings, nails or colourful socks? The new head teacher is disgusting and i cannot believe this school could have got any worse but here we are. If you care about your children’s mental and even psychical wellbeing, DO NOT send them here!

GO TO WYE-DEAN

got told off when i reported someone for bullying. Apparently a teacher is more important then deputy head and i got told off after he did NOTHING. They removed cookies and cakes at break and there is literally child abuse in this school. My head of year told all of the dinner ladies to not serve us at break because people were talking in assembly. Teachers let us out late and WE are the ones getting told off. New rules are terrible. School ruined me, i now have mental health problems. Wish i went to wye-dean bro.

Awful place

Terrible school especially with new headteacher who puts my friend into isolation all day for having an infected piercing she can’t take out. She cannot even properly revise or learn in lessons with teachers for her exams next year. School cares more about attendance/uniform/appearance than the mental health and well-being of pupils. They’d rather you kill yourself than come into school with a skirt 10cm above your knee. Don’t send your kids here unless you want them to become a shell of themselves and conform into being the same as everyone else with no diversity.

Horrible

Not good at all. Teachers that give detentions for sneezing and safeguarding that won't help someone who got beat up and even blamed the parent on the bruising on them. Absolutely terrible. There are a few good teachers but they leave because they feel embarrassed to be in that school.

CaldiHell

Corrupted hell hole that has abandoned the simple ambition for education, instead focusing on the upbringing of future psychopaths through its appeasement based behavioural policy. Relentless fights, shutters on the bathrooms and some TA's dog running around.

If you want your child to go to a school that uses grants from the local authority that are intended to support the school community during the cost of living crisis, for the personal benefit of the management personal then this is the place for you.

Disgusting

Absolutely terrible they have a few good teachers but one teacher gives out warnings and detentions for sneezing. Crowded halls ugly cages on toilets and you can't go to the toilet because during and in between class they are locked and the toilets at lunch are filled with people eating lunch which is disgusting and unhealthy. Bruises on me from being jammed in halls and pushed around. I could go on and on but I don't have time so just take my word for it and go to a different school like Chepstow. 1/10 would not recommend.

Absolute Dump

This school sucks. I went there for E-Mat sessions in Year 6 and I've heard even more from my friends. Just this year, there have been at least 2 attempted suicides. That can't be a coincidence. The teachers don't care about the student's mental health, despite saying they do. Certain teachers are perverts, too. There are fights every day and students jumping the fence to escape. Hell, the students fight the teachers sometimes. This is a terrible school and if you send your children there, you have no respect for their safety. I'm so glad I went to Wyedean.
