Disappointing Experience at This School

I want to share my honest experience at this school, and unfortunately, it’s far from positive. There are several significant issues that need to be addressed.

Poor Behavior Management
The school seems to struggle with managing its students effectively. Bullying is a serious issue, and in my experience, the teachers either ignore it or fail to take meaningful action. This creates an unsafe and unpleasant environment for many students, and it’s upsetting that these issues aren’t properly handled.

Lack of Cleanliness
The cleanliness of the school is another problem. Students consistently leave messes around the campus, and while the cleaners do their best, they are constantly cleaning up after others. This lack of respect for the environment reflects poorly on the school’s standards.

Toilet Problems
The toilets are another major issue. The queues are almost always long because many students waste time on their phones instead of using the facilities quickly. This makes it incredibly frustrating for everyone else who’s just trying to use the toilets, and it feels like a lack of respect for shared spaces.

Disrespect Toward Students
Lastly, and most concerning, is the disrespect shown by some teachers. I’ve witnessed teachers treating students with special needs and those from different backgrounds unfairly. This is deeply disappointing, especially for a school that claims to be diverse, welcoming, and inclusive. These attitudes contradict the school’s supposed values and create an environment of inequality. Also the line ups are ridiculous and pointless and don’t understand why they happen also this school dosent care about mental health and threaten you with reflection and detention

Overall, I find this school to be disappointing, and I cannot recommend it to anyone who what’s to come

Parents, if you're reading this respectfully I DO NOT recommend this school. My children and their friends tell me how disgraceful it is. The teachers are not only unprofessional but do not care about your child's mental health and well being. They give out so many detentions that teachers fail to follow themselves making it hypocritical. Many teachers aren't even qualified for certain classes/subjects which makes students have to learn content as well as revise content at the same time. I emphasise how unprofessional teachers act in that school as well, needs to be called out without the amount of injustice that has happened there. Would never recommend this school to ANY of my friends or my worst enemy. Absolute shambles.

The Teachers pick on people and they are racist. THE WORST SCHOOL IN HISTORY

This is a disgusting and vile school. I worked there as a supply teacher/cover supervisor and there was no support from the permanent staff at all. I was told that I would be going permanent only to be told two weeks later that I am no longer needed. Completely unprofessional and horrible. The students are some of the worst students I have worked with. They swear, throw things and run around the class room like barbaric animals. I would not recommend that anybody wastes their time working here. Its a joke. Oh and I forgot to mention the continuous lining up outside and escorting the children around the school like they are puppies.
Never seen anything like it.

We removed our daughter from the school when we completed GCSE options night with her, she completed her choices, and then to find by email a month later that the school can't honour the options, they needed to be re-done due to staffing organisation changes but this was fine as it "allows your child to think through again what their options are". Wtf.

Moving our child was also problematic. It took call after call, emails, and finally a complaint to the headteacher to get our daughters school records so that she could move to her new school.

This school is unprofessionally run.

Also lets not get onto the mice, rats in the school canteen and kitchen area. Yes it is inner city but this is just disgusting.
