This school ruins me
This school is draining teachers put education before health and it’s not right food is awful teachers attitudes are awful staff scream at kids for not understanding but how can they understand if there being bossed around 24/7 the school ruins my mental health!
It’s alright
It’s an alright school it is what you make it, I made some good friends over the years but bullying needs to be handled more seriously. The school is in a state of disrepair and needs rebuilding soon, they say it will be build soon but we all know this will never happen. Teaches are fine but some just don’t care and seem like then only want the money, we had lots of substitute teaches over the years I was there. These substitute teachers seemed like they really didn’t know much and many used the behaviour system incorrectly. Overall the school is fine but there are better schools.
ok school
i'll give them some credit. they do teach good lessons but some teachers just don't care. they give C1's for anything. they are going to build a new school
Terrible school
terrible school don't send your kids here. My daughter went here and was struggling with anxiety and depression along with some other stuff and the school did not help one bit. Also teachers are talking sh!t behind students backs
as a former student
They don’t help your mental health or state. The school smells awful and the food isn’t even close too good that the students Mainly eat the packaged stuff, it smells wet and damp and the behaviour system is a mess and no one understands so most do what they want. It needs too get better. The work they give is too high and they expect you too grasp it immediately, when you try too ask for help you either get pushed away if your not the favourite or you get ignored.
Needs improvement
Not really a good enough school, needs to be better at handling incidents
Terrible school
This school is awful for behavior and allows children to simply run in the hallways
Rife with bullying, inadequately managed
Rife with bullying of all form to the extent my disabled son attempted suicide. My daughter is now being bullied and the teachers have done absolutely nothing apart from tell her to “man up” despite her explaining that she is receiving threats of rape and sexual harassment among all other forms of bullying from a particular boy in her class. The boys regularly beat up the girls and the teachers seemingly don’t see anything wrong with that. Emails sent are not acknowledged and are largely not responded to, telephone calls are not returned. It would be a terrible mistake to place any child in what can only be described as a hell hole.
Terrible
Hello I am a student at the school and it’s terrible. I am homeschooled because of it but still linked to the school. I have autism and they treated my autism like another money tool. They never looked after me and left us 1 year+ Without contact. Don’t send your child here.
Don’t go here
Very bad environment. The teachers aren’t the best and people with mental illnesses and disorders aren’t dealt with
Honest review from current student
They are a bad school over all, it’s old and smells damp and the behaviour system is messed up and hard to understand. The work load is high and the teachers help their favourites rather than everyone on a whole.
Don’t even try
Left before year 11 don’t go teachers are useless and kids are mean and bullying isn’t handled
bad school
the worst school, wouldn’t even bother, teachers are awful
Don’t do it to yourself
Very depressing, awful teachers and overall toxic environment
Meh it’s average
Bad school go to woodham
