Not for neurodivergent/mentally ill kids
If you are someone who needs support with mental health , disabilities , learning difficulties or neurodevelopmental disorders /have a child like this please don't attend here . I'm autistic and struggled with my mental health heavily and the staff were horrible at supporting me , I had no chance of passing because of the environment despite being academically advanced when I first joined and having a high IQ. They did nothing about the bullying and mistreatment until i stopped attending classes because I was so tired . Even then the answer was bo3 , where even though it was a safe space for a while they soon got tired of me using it and I got behind in classes. I mentioned to staff most days or had outbursts where I'd express being suicidal and they did nothing . It would be an okay school for people who work well with school and peers ,require minimal support, and aren't neurodivergent or mentally ill .Unfortunately , that wasn't the case for me and even though I blamed myself and who I am for so long , I now believe this school failed me . I could've done so much better if the staff was more accepting and supportive .
Don’t go here
I mean what can I say that’s good. Teachers are all very one sided and don’t sort out any problems. My parents had to come in to many times and still nothing happend.
Annoyed
Some of the school teachers have really bad attitude and are quite rude! It’s unbelievable how many detentions I get over pathetic things! I get detentions because I forget my p.e kit and because I talk to someone over the work and they say I’m chatting! It’s so pathetic, honestly you would expect better from this school!
Happier
It’s a pretty good school, some of the people there aren’t very nice.There are people saying the school is vile and worse things but in reality it’s alright . I moved tutors and they made it really easy. The kids in my class now are really nice and some of the teachers are aswell. :)
Let down
Waiting for a child to be let back into school and can’t even email you back or ring you you back failing children on there education over a month and nothing bk from the school if I was keeping her off on my own free will I would get a fine and so should be the same for the school as well
Terrible
Absolutely terrible school. Most of the teachers don’t do anything about bullying or even teaching.
School
Mid school
The school is mid, bad facilities, mid level teachers who have no passion for teaching
Bad but does what it needs to
Teachers are rude and disrespectful and violent many teachers shout at teachers and threaten them one teacher was so angry they broke a door and weren't fired.overcrowed in every class there's a mix between 22 and 30 people in the classroom which are manly small. Food is extremely expensive and dinner staff are rude and racist such as they comment on children and before they didn't let my friend who has darker skin by a sausage roll because of her skin colour. Teachers are sexist extremely sexist. They celebrate nothing Christmas Easter Ramadan red nose Day children's in need absolutely nothing.lots of bullying and the teachers do not care.breaks are extremely short and if your on the field your not allowed of the field not even to go to the toilet. Once I was late for the first time and got a letter sent home saying I was one minute and thirty six seconds late. Short staffed pastoral team so there's no support for anyone.
Average
Just like any other school I guess
Good would recommend
Some nice teachers obviously like all schools some to avoid fairly harsh punishment not much bullying but not the best community. Fair treatment, nice cafeteria food and service and teach you well obviously being a child I am biased and would prefer not to attend school but it is probably better than i made it out to be in the middle of two areas and near park so good location however you have to bring in food and crockery too cook in the food tech classes I have learnt a lot here and created a liking to science and maths in particular it has a big playing field and mini gym
