Cockshit hill

Absolutly terrible school, my son gets detentions for things he has not even done, he gets isolations when he has not done anything, even without proof of anything they dont want to know and listen, and he still gets punished,
worse school in birmingham.
Its racist, homophobic you name it ,they are it.
Teachers are useless and dont want to listen just want to big themselves up., they are bullies, horrible horrible school, avoid it, or expect the expected.

a current year 8 girl

this school is absolutely disgusting they talk about how they can do so much to help us but there chatting crap.they dont care about your mental health all they care about is how the school looks they dont send you home when ur ill they only care how your uniform looks and your skirts.they say that boys are attracted to your legs and ankles when its literally the male teachers telling me off for it.they told me to speak to a teacher about how i was feeling acting like they know how to help or how i feel.never send your child here unless you want there mental health to get bad.i love my english teacher though she is the sweetest teacher that has ever taught me always trying to get me to understand and going slow.

Should use this school as the landing place for hell

If your anything other than a straight white boy, this school will make you think you’re in a concentration camp. Mrs hall and mr price get 5 stars though

The Uks WORST school

i used to go to this school and leaving it was the best decision i made! DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE! ESPECIALLY if they have special needs because the children are bullied on a day to day basis and the teachers turn a blind eye to it. the school is full of toxic people who are homophobic, racist and discriminative. I’ve seen it all at this school, boys fighting girls, 10 girls fighting 1 girl, i’ve seen people get pushed infront of cars and stamped on there’s fights every single day you are not safe here trust me. It has completely damaged my mental well-being and changed my overall outlook on learning in a negative way. the staff don’t deal with the problems happening throughout the school and the principal is just sat in his office all day absolutely oblivious to the circus he runs! (he’s the biggest clown of them all). Also the toilets are REVOLTING, no tissue, no handsoap, half the cubicle doors are hanging off, there are cameras in the toilets!? they are more concerned about your uniform rather then the disgusting things happening in there school. I was so unhappy in that environment i couldn’t even focus, it seemed like a challenge to even go there. Students go missing for hours and the teachers don’t even have a clue where the pupil is. Best advice keep your children far from this school!

No thank you.

It’s not a good school. My main issue is that they like to pretend to be such good people, like posting that they’ve done things for charity, putting up a pride flag, bragging about their “35+ nationalities” but have racist or homophobic teachers, never do anything for their students who are part of minorities and getting bullied, and say they “raise money for charity” but whenever we have for example christmas jumper days they didn’t even collect our donations. The general atmosphere of the school is very bad and the majority of students are homophobic, ableist or racist. Very unsafe place for anyone slightly different than the social norm. Don’t send your child here unless they fit the societal standards 😐 “3rd most improved school in Birmingham” is NOT the flex you think it is. Also trying to big themselves up calling themselves an “Academy” and making the canteen a “Restaurant” is just laughable. You’re a secondary school in the middle of Birmingham, please don’t gas yourselves.

Current student year 11

Girl dont even get me started on this shit pls there is so much homophobia and racism in this school and the staff don't handle it well lmao they just brush it off and protect the racist instead of doing something and say it's some rumours going around not to mention one of my friends experienced some homophobe on sports day throwing juice at them and threatening them and all sorts of stuff and he never got a good punishment im a current student year 11 and lord they dont even allow you to wear small hoops- the size of your finger nail and they don't allow the small simple rings anymore and they'll (staff) get so pissed if you roll your sleeves up even if it's super hot and astarfurallah there is this teacher named miss kelly or smhtn some whitey that doesn't teach you islam or other religions or RE topics and my friends in her child developing class say she talks about her s3x life like nobody asked girl tf oh and she also said that christians are the group that get most persecuted when it's other religions not to mention she said jesus was jewish and not brown like girl doesn't even know the difference between race and religion and shes an RE teacher OH AND I ALMOST FORGOT there are like a number of teachers who say boys are attracted to ankles and basically shane girls and this BMT teacher called miss ash shamed my friend saying that their skirt is "too high" and that they don't have any self respect and the "student services" dont do nothing when youre sick or anything and sometimes i suspect they actually let the white students go home when they are feeling sick or anything they barely let any students go home it's absolutely horrible same goes to the food it literally has no flavour they make it sound delcious and all but their new menu is just so bland don't send your child here

I am a current student of Cockshut Hill and I love it there. There are some cases of bullying and homophobia, but the teachers take care of it very well. Everyone is very kind and the curriculum is amazing. Some things could be added (just so you know this is during COVID-19 so some things were restricted) but overall, a very good school. I recommend that you send your children here, as they will be well educated and very happy here.

Terrible school don’t send your children

This school is TERRIBLE i used to go there and where do I even start. If parents r reading this PLZ don’t send ur childs here. First of all the school has a srs bullying problem and the teachers never take it srs. My friends got bullied so bad. There’s a lot of racism and homophobia and u would think because there’s a big desi community there would be not a lot of racism but Noo, most of the whites are racist and they give 3 weeks off for christmas but u can’t have more Than 1 day off for eid. The teachers r so extra and get mad over something small like my sister is in year 10 there Now and u can’t even have more than 1 ring or they’ll come and take it from u, No lashes, Cant even roll ur sleeves up on ur blazer in the middle of summer or they will have a melt down 😂 And half of the teachers slag off the Senior leaderships team anyways

One of the best decisions I ever made

Such an amazing school, I’ve had so many great experiences and it’s made me the person that I am today. The great friends, teachers and staff members are the things that are the best also along with the great education they’ve given me.
