Ruislip High School

Horrible school. Where do i start, my daughter got severely bullied at this so what called school and got attacked by multiple students of ruislip high, her grades have dropped MASSIVELY because the teachers can’t teach.

ruislip high school is a bad enviroment for students and if you care about your children do not send them to this school, first of all the safegaurding claims to be a important factor of RHS but yet when a child comes to safegaurding pastrol they are shoved away anf told to go to lesson and they will sort the issue out in the future? (what.??) the pastoral teachers create bad relationships with the students so they wont be bothered with their problems. the school do not care abour how the children are feeling and the students dont recive the support they are supposed to be given, for example if a child is feeling anxious into going a lesson they will just be sent to BOT (back on track) for three hours minuim and are told to go on a website where they learn nothing (oak national accadmey) and when they are realsed from their bot session they are targeted by the staff members. if a student is feeling too overwhelmed to go into bot they are yelled at and screamed at, and they get suspsended. (mr askin , miss farrell , ms stoodley, miss coltman or any high member of staff expect a few like mr shelley who is a very nice teacher who is caring and will talk to the student in a calm way and wont force them into a classroom) in BOT you are expected to hand in your phone and you will only recive if you do a 45 min detention, which most yhe time cannot be reschelded so if you are seeing family or friends you wont be able to tell them you have a detention which creates problems with familys. mr askin also trys to take peoples phones for weeks on end. teachers have a problem with buttons and skirts which is reasonable but if you have a sensory issue with top buttons they have no sympthy and thats awful way to run a school. the school preach on mental health untill someone is genuinely struggling. there is wlso many medical issues that are a concern (if someone faints they only care about make up and wont send you home) teachers shout out at consious girls who wear makeup which id wrong on so many levels as some girls might be feeling insecure just to get laughed at by miss farrell for having mascara down their face. makeup being banned is not the issue its they way they deal with the students who do break this rule. somr teachers even refuse to teach students which is so wrong and some children arent allowed in lessons for up to a week and yet expected to attend school. theit expectations are too high due to their oustanding oftsed review, but the only reasonwhy that is the case is because the teachers hide away the "'misbehaved" or "naughty" students just to make the school look better but in reality there are so many more concerns this school is the WORST ONE IN LONDON please dont send them here.

Overall a HORRIBLE school.My daughter gets bullied at this school and i’ve spoken to the so called teachers about it and they are doing nothing to help.They target certain students and there’s atleast 2 fights a week.

teachers are horrible at dealing with situations that require more attention especially if you have needs that require a minimal to a lot of attention. the children at this school are very poorly behaved around the local community and they do not care about any of their pupils and strongly believe that your academics come before anything else in life which is very harmful to a child’s mental health which again they do not pay attention to until it is to late. DO NOT GO HERE!!!

Do not send your kids here!
I regret ever sending my children here. This school preaches mental health and consistently tells the students and parents that they are always available for a chat and will help in anyway that they can, however this is not true. From what I have witnessed myself and heard from others, they have a tendency to victim blame, whether that be due to bullying or other things. Some other parents and I have even wanted to go to the school as a group at times to address their absurd way of dealing with sensitive situations. They speak about putting mental health first but then when a student attempts to do that, they are shamed by the staff for doing so. If I could go back in time and not send my kids here, I would.

Overall, it’s a pretty good school. The teachers, apart from a few, are genuinely quite nice and good at teaching. It’s strict, but in a good way as it means people are safe, but some things can be unnecessarily harsh. The food can sometimes be nice, sometimes not be too great, but it is nice sometimes.
