bad school

Definition of hell
This school sucks, I was clearly struggling to go school but all they cared about was my attendance. Did eventually give me a part time table but when it ran out I had to have “doctors proof” that I had anxiety but doctors refused and I couldn’t get another part time table. Wasn’t able to get homeschooled. Can’t wait to get out of this hell hole.
please do not come here its Despicable
I would not recommended this school unless you have 100% english in your blood and are whiter then the background . They do NOT care about your education and care more about uniform and screaming at little children who have no idea what is going on. In addition to this half the teachers are literally racist and try to connect lgbtqerty to many religions which forbid this. also they say you are to wear a -1 inch blazer at all times in the winter instead of actual warm clothes.
they have threatened to expell me for defending myself from these inbred students
Overall I do NOT recommend this school 🤦♂️🙅♂️🙅♂️
(only come if your white and like causing trouble because if your white they do NOT care what you do😁😁)

Worst school ever
holy the teachers in this school are awful. all they care about is a pay check they dont prepare us for any understanding of the real world out there and dont even prepare us for our exams. the environment of the school is appalling and the bullying is out of hand. teachers see the bullying and they do nothing about it. the cleanliness of this school is disgusting and the keyboards walls toilets and everything is absolutely disgusting. the teachers in this school dont give 2 shits about the students and honestly one of the worst schools ever. also the rules of this school is shit and is made tto make the students lives a living hell. please do not come to this school and get this school shut down its so bad.

Actually an awful school. I don’t recommend it after spending 5 years at this school i’m glad to be leaving the teachers aren’t supportive and focus on discipline more than education. Basic needs such as the right to go to the toilet are taken away from students as the toilets are blocked off and teachers refuse to let students go by saying “we’re learning right now”. Mirrors are taken out of toilets to prevent skiving and to stop girls from fixing their makeup and hair in them. Students vandalise the school by ripping toilets off of the wall and breaking locks on doors. All windows have safety locks on and can only be opened so far as students kept jumping out of them. The locks in toilets don’t line up making them unusable as the doors cannot be locked. Most equipment is broken or has a lack of supply as there isn’t enough funding to replace or fix things such as windows. Most teachers either give up on teaching a class if a selection of students don’t listen leaving the rest to fall behind. Teachers only help the students that they believe will pass their gcse’s and leave the ones they think are hopeless. Girls aren’t allowed to play football, rugby or basketball as they are seen as boys sports. And the boys cannot play netball or badminton as they are ‘girls sports’. Staff mainly focus on perfecting uniform for example 20 year 11 girls were put into IEU in one day because of the length of their skirts. This then meant that they had to miss out on learning as they were taken out of lessons for the day. There are more issues with this school but i have narrowed it down to the main ones my experience at this school was atrocious i will never recommend this school to anyone or send my future children here.
Worst school ever
Was here from year 7 to 11 and it was the worst years of my life. Got so bullied and depressed and nobody helped until there was like 3 weeks left until i had to leave. Most teachers are selfish and mean and dont help any students who actually need it. If a student is seriously struggling they just throw them in ieu instead of helping them. Only good thing was the food.

Terrible.
This school is terrible, disregard for any students wellbeing, teachers just don’t care about the lessons and cannot control their students. Go to a different school if you are thinking about this
Do not recommend this school
This school is awful. As a parent sending my child everyday was awful. The bulling was never dealt with and the only way it stopped was pulling my child from the school.
The teachers have no respect towards the children and the parents. The parents evening was pretty much non exsictant as teachers would not turn up to the meeting or would have no understanding of where my child's progress was at if they did turn up.
To me the teachers there are only there for a wage packet and term holidays . They are certainly not there for the child's education. Overall I would not recommend this school to anyone as your child goes in confident and come out with no self esteem or confidence.

Atrocious
My daughter was inappropriately touched by a boy in her class I informed the police but told it's a school issue every day she had to be in same classroom and playing out as they did not believe her now she has mental health problems talked to school they didn't want to know so I took her out of school to protect her
Atrocious
Had to take my daughter out of school as she was inappropriately touched by another student went to meetings to sort out problem told she has to stay in same classroom as him and play outside at same time with a teacher's assistant following him about so he doesn't touch her again my daughter told me he gets very close when teaching assistant sometimes talking to another teacher her mental health was suffering they didn't care I reported it to police they said it's a school issue and can't help me it seems I'm the only one protecting her
Disgraceful
This school is absolutely atrocious, the staff don’t care about no one but themselves. And let’s not forget to mention there’s been a few cases of pedophilia and make teachers looking at girls changing. A violation of privacy and human rights. Teachers threaten to hit you and you’ll never go anywhere in life. I hope this school burns to the ground. Half the school come to school high to get through this hell they call a ‘school’.
parent.
Complaint.
care about uniform more than your education!

Terrible School.
I have had a very poor experience at this school, I have been bullied by a plethora of students and teachers by far the most inhumane terrible school I have ever been to, the staff are rude and nit picky, there is only two teachers that are good and one of them has left.
Overall I rate this school 1/5 stars
Terrible Experience.

VERY BAD
this school is the worst i have been to. No teachers care about your health or education just their money, the school cafeteria, they pick up food from the floor if it falls. When there is a visitor they act like the school is amazing when its not. DO NOT RECCOMEND
It was alright
It was alright.
I guess.

The teaching and teachers aren’t that bad but the people and bullying is low-key out of hand like everyone is beefin all the time

not good
shit is all i have to say mr reed and a few others are the only genuin, caring teachers

no one takes your problems seriously and the covid measures aren’t amazing.
Shocking!!!
Awful school. Terrible Covid measures. No social distancing. Masks not allowed. Rude staff and other students. Unhygienic canteen and staff. DO NOT COME TO THIS SCHOOL!!’
Bad school
Dreadful school. Teacher threatened me and head teacher laughed it off. ( the treat made me feel threatened about my life)
Awful and disrespectful staff
How to start this, the school is awful. The school canteens food is nasty and grim🤢🤮. I once saw one of the dinner staff pick their nose then go on to serve pizza to a student! The teachers are bad and don’t know anything about the subjects! Awful.
