a school that is constantly praised yet consistently fails to meet their students needs, specific members of staff (especially pastoral) have strong levels of favouritism and often pick one or two students from each year group to be the scapegoat for anything that needs covering up. very close minded with homophobia, racism and transphobia running rampant from certain groups with the school doing nothing to stop it despite having a „zero tolerance policy”, probably a fine school if you have the right connections as it’s all very incestual, not to mention what seems to be an inability to properly check their staff with the amount of pedophiles that have come to light recently
props to the VERY few teachers who made it worth ever being there
if you don’t want your child put in a section then i wouldn’t send them here x
It has been several years since I attended this school. I nearly killed myself and was rendered disabled by the havoc the stress wreaked on my body. Nobody particularly cared to help me, except the lady who worked in the UNIT. In fact, they only really checked in to make sure I got my grades up. I'm not in any danger anymore, but I am still in therapy, and haven't been able to get my life started because I'm terrified of failing, because of the feelings the staff at this school instilled in me. Maybe send your kid somewhere else.
School is bad. Inside is too small. Only one good meal in canteen that you only get once a week. Teachers dont understand if you feel sick. I was throwing up one time and they kept me in the whole day even tho i was crying.
Close community school, it’s perfect for children more shy as it’s small enough we’re practically evryone knowns evryone. However due to its size it could do with an update the building is small and facilities are outdated can’t even afford glue sticks ngl. But it is great some teachers are the best others not so head of upper and lower school can be too shouty and should just relax although it’s got some flaws probably better than a lot of others and wouldn’t of wanted to go any where else looking back.
The majority of the staff are lovely . I found the head of upper school very rude but all other staff seem lovely . It’s a small school and lacks a lot of facilities you would get at a large school but it’s a more personal and close knit school so there are pros and cons of both . The uniform is good and is comfortable for the children. The building itself is older and isn’t particularly nice to look at but the inside of it does the jobs . There is very little recreational areas and the sports facilities are also limited . The mental health services support is also limited . As it’s a small school you don’t get a lot of the privileges of a bigger school
