Okay, but just not there yet.
All through Yr7 and Yr8 I was bullied by the same boys for being gay and non-binary. I told my tutor and even with over ten people complaining about the same thing and the same people, nothing was done to him. Then a week later, the main boy in the bullying gets a suspension for a week for telling someone to “kill themselves” even though he had done the same thing to me and even saying he’d “supply the rope.” Still, I’m in Yr10 now, nothing has been done to him and he is still bullying lots of people.
good but bad.
this is a very good and independent school in basingstoke, from my opinon the staff is very nice and they will listen to your concerns, but as a student there it has made me feel unsafe because i got bullied throughout year 10 and that got me to move to another school. the teachers will deal with bullying but it just got out of hand and didn't do anything about it.
average
This school is very good and one of the most populated schools in basing-stoke, the teachers are ever so friendly, my child can easily go to one of them if they feel down, but in the other side, the teachers don't care about arguments or dealing with them, they listen to one side of the story, as a parent an honest review is, only send your kids here if they're not going to be in any arguments, as my child got threatened online, i know it's online and it shouldn't be brought into school, they could still ask about it as they were threatened with a terrible subject.
