Horrible school you Learn about Romeo and Juliet in English

This school is terrible bc the kids start riots for nothing and the headteachers are known for leaving after 6 months of starting the job the new headteacher is called miss greggory she bloody followed me round the school but then gives up on you miss caren the English teacher runs after you and you get put in remove the next day and you can’t go out during lessons and when you are in A block at break and dinner the staff scream at you my friend if she is in A block at break dinner before school and after school she gets a 2hour detention after school on the same day and you get a new member of staff pretty much every month and you get bullied by staff bc they don’t care when you fall face first on the stairs and when you tell a teacher you fell on the stairs face first they scream top of their voice I don’t care but the head of year 8 is amazing and very pretty and she helps you with anything and then there is a Pe teacher who takes your bag and throws it outside But then you get that 1 teacher who is in a right mood (Head of Y9) and Some of SLT are kind and pretty but the headteachers PA is amazing because she lets me sit in her office sometimes when I’m annoyed at teachers so I don’t get in trouble

No good school. School bad.

A lot of teachers left at the end of last year. This year my form teacher hasn't been in for more than three weeks so far also teachers on sick for no reason. The good is shit, overpriced and isn't worth the queue time. Teachers don't care about you and only care about how you look to give a 'good reputation' to the school. I come here to learn not to be sent in a room all day because of the colour of my hair or because ive got trainers on. I don't recommend Hawkley AT ALL.

SCHOOLS GONE TO SH*T

This school has gone to absolute shame. I am so disappointed in what’s going on. The new head states she will change the school and all she has done is make sure all toilets are locked all day with only 1 open from the furthest block from students lessons which only 3 toilets out of the 500 girl students. And now not allowing them to go during lesson changeover and only in lesson if u have a toilet pass leaving children needing the toilet for up to 2:25 minutes. Now only 3 are open at lunch and break times leaving kids waiting in ques for over 15 minutes. Food prices have gone extremely high and it’s outrageous. Older students pushing in front and staff doing nothing about it. Young y7s being pushed and stepped on. AND staff can going in front of the hungry students getting their food when they shouldn’t be treated as higher instead as an equal. Most staff have left the school or becoming pregnant and I don’t blame them for wanting to receive that time off. New staff think they know all the rules and boss the students around like slaves. THIS HAS TO STOP. When dealing with incidents between staff and children they decide to suspend the children while under investigation and not the staff then and too busy to even let the parents know why or anything about the child’s suspension. They say they care about bulling yet many students are being bullied and they do nothing about it even when the students are crying during lessons they tell them to go back to lesson and come back at break and when expressing their emotions are called baby’s. And mental health does not matter in this school you can cry and feel very uncomfortable and the staff do not care. Only a small amount off staff listen to ur probables and try to resolve them but can’t do much as only higher slt can resolve and punish students. Slt takes up to 20 minutes to come to an on call leaving the students not able to learn till the problem is resolved. Recently a new staff member got in my face to the point she was spitting on me, cornered me in a room pointing at me and screaming at me to shut my mouth and saying she knows where I got my attitude from when saying she’s going to call my mother even tho she has never met her in her life. I am appalled by how this school has turned out. Sort this out now and parents NEVER send ur children to this school. 😡😡😡

What is haelkley

About Hawley . Hawley is a good and bad place they don't understand u or eneything they make you sit in a room without eney food and you can't even have a good lesson because they just pick on one student like me I was in Hawley and everyone was talking throwig paper balls and I did and the teacher only screemed at me and I got removed without a chance but the good side is that some teachers will help you do your work and talk to you and even help you to get out of detention and they give you positives

Awful School

Doesnt even deserve a star.
Teachers are absolute control freaks.
Freedom of speech isn't allowed.
Im convinced Inclusion staff are fascist, Toilets smell like vape.
Every year the rules are changed to suit the teachers.
Nearly Nothing benefits the students.
Convinced they get people off the street and call them "supply".

Narcissist head teacher.. ego extraordinary

Head teacher was a shambles of a man.. clutched at straws, when he really didn't have a clue. He wouldn't have known what bullying was if it came and sat next to him.. anything to deflect the blame away from him and the school. a proper chocolate fire guard.

Please do not send your children to this school.

Don’t get me wrong, some teachers are great, maybe about 5/100 of them. But every single day my daughter wakes up crying, begging me not to go to school because of how terrible it is. One day, after an extremely vile incident at break involving her being threatened by many people and her friends bullying her, she started bawling her eyes out in lesson, she went to the office and they told her to go back to lesson and come back at break 🤬! She tried to message me to let me know what was going on but the teachers wouldn’t let her!! She came back at break and they said that they would let her leave 5 mins early so at the end of the day they went to pick her up. Once they came, the pupils in her class were laughing at her as she got up and with 2 teachers in the classroom, they did absolutely nothing but ignored the fact that everyone was laughing at her! The next day they put up a video in form about bullying and how it’s bad. I lost my mind at that point because they put ‘you can come talk to anyone we will help you asap’, do they fuck!!! Recently, my daughter had been called racist things which I will not repeat, it took the teachers a week to get up and go sort it out because they couldn’t be bothered!!! They people calling my daughter said they never said those things, so the teachers didn’t believe my daughter!!! I honestly wish I could go in there and punch them all!!! The teachers do not help your kids at all when learning, when a child is stuck and asks the teacher for help, the teacher says that ‘they didn’t listen’ or something along the lines and walk off! Then the child always ends up with bad results on their exams because they didn’t get the help they needed! As well as in the canteen, my daughter never gets the food she wants because the older students always push!!! The teacher see this and act blind!!! The children there are horrible, picking fights everyday! Once, my daughter had gone through something terrible and broke down at school. At break. She went to the office and they noticed she had a little bit of mascara on, so they screamed at her, made her wipe it off, gave her a detention and sent her out!!! 🤬🤬 the kids here will 1000000% pick on your child for anything! Also, the teachers are ‘allowed’ to push in front of the kids in the canteen to get their food first before the kids. They don’t let your kids go to the bathroom even if a girl is on her period!! If your child is late. They give them a 15 minute detention even if they have a reason! Unbelievable! I am so disgusted by this school and so many bad reports have come towards the school, they say that ‘they are going to make a difference’ but they don’t do anything to try!

Don't go to school here

This school is quite bad, lots off bullying and stuff, teachers honestly don't care and worry about girls wearing abit of makeup but not bullying, teachers are very strict i don't know why. The TAs are horrible aswell like they don't understand what your going through and are very rude aswell maybe because they don't get paid enough. Ive never felt safe at this school everyone is just rude.
