Avoid This Place at All Costs – Absolute Disaster of a School
If you’re considering sending your child to Haybridge High School in Hagley, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. This place is a complete joke, and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.
First off, the teachers are beyond useless. Most of them seem like they hate their jobs and take it out on the students. They’re either completely incompetent or on some weird power trip, handing out detentions for the most ridiculous reasons—talking? Detention. Forget your pen? Detention. Breathe too loudly? Might as well call it a life sentence. They don’t actually teach anything; they just throw worksheets at you and expect you to figure it out yourself.
The facilities are equally appalling. Half the classrooms look like they haven’t been updated since the 1970s, and the heating seems to be permanently broken—boiling in the summer, freezing in the winter. The canteen food is an abomination. Ever wanted to pay £3 for a slice of cardboard masquerading as pizza? Haybridge has you covered.
Then there’s the behavior system. The school claims to have a "strict but fair" discipline policy, which is laughable. The “popular” kids get away with murder, while everyone else is treated like a criminal for minor mistakes. Bullying is rampant, and the teachers do absolutely nothing about it. If you report anything, they either ignore you or somehow make it your fault.
Honestly, this school is a masterclass in how not to run an educational institution. If you actually want to learn in a supportive environment, this isn’t the place for you. Absolute trash.
Really bad problem with drug abuse all throughout the school mean very few resources put into the actual education of students. Generally teachers are of poor quality, although there are some very good teachers. Strict enforcement of many rules which seem to inhibit learning more than promote it
I personally hate my school the teachers say they care about your metal health but believe the bullies and harassers over the victims i was encouraged to speak up about r@p3 threats i was getting from a boy and they believed him when he denied it they also go off at you for talking to someone in a diff year than you and embarrass you in front of everyone for you skirt being above your knees or your shoes being too fancy it has made my life a living hell and i have only been there for 2 years.

0/10 – would rather be homeschooled by a rock.
