This skl only carrs if ur face fits

-The skl is so fucking biased theh suck off popular kids and weren't nice to ppl who weren’t popular theres this one safeguarding teacher she meatrides y10 boy but has a certain atitude to ppl who aren’t as popular. This skl is definitely biased
- - it is so obvious they view blac k girl as “violent people” whereas if it was someone who was “pretty” or “innocent looking” and who constantly showed violent behavior and werent kicked out even after they had gotten into several fights and beaten ppl this skl just goes by pretty privellege. Dont send ur kids if u dont wan them to get beat up by these nasty ppl this skl is stupid by keeping these this was allowing other ppl to get hurt not realising that it is somebodys child but this school dont gaf especially safeguarding all they care about is the money they are getting paid what makes this skl worser is the ppl these ppl r not put in their place and arnt sanctioned for their behavior i have seen several times racial discrimination going on and towards kids who are indian.
- the math department is terrible this sixth form expect grade 5s when thete was barely math teacherts and we were dumped with supply teachers doing gcses . And only 61% people pass math which is terrible.
- Do not believe what ofsted said reviewed tbis skl the day before ofsted inspection came the headteacher made a whole assembly with the whole school and told everyone to bring their blazers in and be on their best behavior and we missed out quality gcse lesson because of this and they want to make us act different and want us to put a show for ofsted i think ofsted should come without notice and see what this skl is actually really like.
-They dont hire professional people all they do is hire short angry people - all they do is scream while we are sitting our exams and have no consideration as this isnt their exams.
So therefore do not send ur kids here unless u want them to be beaten up and bullied by nasty ppl who are not sanctioned . This skl is way too bad to even give it a single star

Hypocrites

1.This school doesn't even ask students for consent when they publicly post pictures of them. But they wanna make assemblies about "e-safety". I constantly have to check i wasnt posted on instagram, facebook or the school website unknowingly. This school needs to remember its not okay to publicly post pictures of minors without consent...For anyone in the world to see as well!??🤨
2.Their so called "support" staff have dismissed upset students on so many occasions if they weren't their favourite. 3.Their eating areas are so bad. one time a girl nearly sat on the nail of a broken bench and that could've ended badly. They instead should have put caution signs to prevent that. Theres also a huge area of mud right next to some cramped year 7 line which u have to avoid slipping onto while simultaneously avoiding getting pushed by the greedy year 7s fighting in the line 💀
4. They ignore casual racial discrimination when the bully is someone who is popular with teachers and "support" staff, theyre hella biased. Dont send your kids here unless you want your child to be bullied by stupid kids who dont get put in their place.
5. Their student support safeguarding teachers act like theyre students themselves. This one lady acts like shes friends with boys in year 10 and is biased asf because she lets them hang around while she flirts with them. But when its someone else she rudely kicks them out... this school hires grown women who are mentally stuck in highschool with their silly friendships with immature boys

An absolute joke.

This school is an absolute disaster, i went to this school from year 7 to year 11 from 2017 to 2022.

the school only cares about its outside envoirment and doesn’t actually care about its pupils (especially neurodivergent students) or their hygiene, i dont have an issue with old styled buildings and architecture, but the school seriously needs a deep clean and perhaps a refurbish, most of the teachers do not really care about their pupils mental health and they also lie about helping children with leaning disabilities, they also give out way too much homework for a student to comprehend, the teachers dont really care about safety of the school either and just slap on a bunch of cameras to make you feel watched, there are constant fights and bullies in the school and the school probably still hasnt done anything about it, i was verbally attacked by students and teachers (mainly students) and the school did not seem to care, i even had my comfort items confiscated and the reason being because its “distracting” when in reality i am unable to process things.

Moving aside the learning and security, the food is extremely overpriced and the fact that you have to use a fingerprint makes it much worse as your parents are the ones putting in money and not you. Most of the food is also unsafe for people with sensory problems, to make thinge worse, there have been incidents of rodents running around in the canteen, which is more proof the school is unhygienic.

Speaking of hygene, the toilets (especially in J block) are rarely cleaned and always have suprises in the toilets awaiting for you, most of the doors are broken so you get barely any privacy using the toilets so you need a friend to make sure nobody goes in your stall, if you have no friends, then I honestly wish you luck.

the only positive that this school has is that there are some genuinely nice teachers in there, but they usually don’t end up teaching you, but at least you get to see them at break/lunch.

Overall, this school requires improvement, do not listen to the ofsted report, this is NOT a good school, especially if you are neurodivergent, this is not the worst school, but it does neee major improvement, if you are planning to choose this school, please reconsider your decision, you will thank me later

do not think about their mental

My school is completely useless, the staff are horrible and don’t give me the support I need , the food is over priced for a school. teachers favourite other students and don’t give the other ones a chance . some of the students also are extremely rude . The inside of the school is horrible , our school does have money but they decide to use it on other things. The school also over loads us with homework and don’t care about our mental health。

Staff member!!

I worked with a staff member named Yami. She was extremely unfriendly and unkind. She was one of the worst people I’ve worked with and complained about everything!
