Best school in the local area for primary and secondary
Amazing school within such an enriching environment. I am so happy I sent my child there from reception onwards. Currently I. Year 2 and thriving.
Happy place where kindness is valued.
My 2 children have been through primary and are now in secondary. They are very different children but both really happy and doing well academically. The clubs, careers and pastoral support are fantastic. A lovely community, family feel.
Rubbish
Worst school ever do not recommend
worst school.
foods so expensive, spending over £5 A DAY just for inedible and burnt food.
school treats you differently if u have a disability/ learning disorder/ health issues etc and don’t act about bullying.
they care more about uniform than mental/ physical health.
a girl gives me dirty looks and sass almost everyday but because she’s autistic i’m not aloud to say anything to her. why am i the one getting screamed at by multiple teachers for asking her if she has a problem with me? ik it sounds harsh but autism isn’t an excuse for her to be rude and get away with it.
teachers have told my mum they will make a plan for me because i have dyslexia and struggle with work/ focusing but nothing has been done and completely lied to my mum.

worse school in the uk.
if ur thinking abt moving to this school, don’t.
if you have a learning disability, illness, adhd, autism, anxiety, tourettes etc they treat you differently and you get in trouble (iso, suspended, screamed at by multiple teachers).
most teachers are leaving and we have so many supply’s, you barely learn anything and the students say nasty things. most people tell u to kill urself at this school and if u say something back to them, the school will tell u off and not the other kid? it makes no sense.
so many kids here are depressed and want to move schools it’s got an unfair system and uniform rules are so dumb, blazers and ties must be worn at all times even though other kids steal them?
so many kids/ teachers steal ur personal items and uniform, my trainers got stolen by a kid and my bracelet was took off me by a teacher (miss scriven) last year and i never got it back? and they smash the locks of your locker and u won’t get the stuff back after.
they care more about uniform than mental/ physical health. u can’t leave school early (a kid got dragged onto the ground by his classmate and broke his foot a few months ago and wasn’t aloud home because they accused him of lying)
teachers will physically push/ drag you to lessons even if your having a panic attack and treat you differently. male teachers look into the girls toilets and claim “it’s not weird because there a teacher” but it is weird.
the food so expensive and it’s always burnt, inedible (literally cannot bite into it), no vegetarian/ vegan options and tastes vile. you couldn’t pay me to eat it,
the teachers tell your parents “we will support your child” etc and give you a plan to help you in school to impress parents but won’t do it and refuse to help you.
literal mould on some of the walls and the toilets are vile. disgusting inside the building.
i could name so many more reasons not to come to chichester free school but i’ll stop here because i’ve already listed a lot
if i could rate it 0 i would.

could improve
this school is probably the WORST i've been to. i have been bullied and told off at for NOTHING. don't get me wrong, some teachers are really nice, i do believe it has potential, but with this money, they can barely afford glue sticks..
Chichester Free School
My daughter is in year 11 and has had every bit of enthusiasm and joy stripped from her by a selection of teachers at the school over the past 5 years. With only a month to go I have no words at the way she is treated. For the record she is not a problem child and her attendance has been good but she literally cries at the thought of having to go in each day. They seriously need to look at their teachers behaviours towards children and how their actions are affecting the mental health of the students. Very angry and desperate to get her out of there.
Bad school, ruins ur life
all they care about if you tuck in your shirt and if you're not wearing school shoes and your wearing air forces cos ur school shoes broke. Most but not all of the teacher are terrible. It's pathetic they don't give af about mental health and the school is very toxic. It's gated and literally feels like a prison. All the pastoral team but one pic on me but no one else all the time about things that aren't rules. It ain't even about learning, you don't learn anything it's just about making the school look good. everyone in my year (year 11) is gonna fail their gcse's cos of this toxic school anyway. This school has done nothing but worsen my metal health and make me feel bad.
The governments waste of 20 million
The school grounds are terrible the only thing to do is to play football on the Astro turth the school is sexist towards boys as girls get it easier there are great teachers but some that just can’t control the class and some have no idea what there doing.
cfs is bad
horrible. teachers dont care about your mental health and well being
Not well with bullying
Not very good at tackling bullying (it's also a secondary school aswell as a primary school)
I was bullied and they didn't do anything about it because the bully was autistic. I strongly support and care about the autistic community but you can't use it as an excuse to bully.
