I moved schools because I was being bullied every day and the teachers didn’t do anything about it. Me and my family went to speak to the head teacher, my head of year and everyone we could and they were all aware of the situation however nothing ever changed. The punishments are horrible and too cruel and they care more about being the top school in England rather than their students wellbeing. My mental health got so bad I was only in once or twice every week and I was skipping most of my lessons. This school is absolutely horrible.
Unfortunately we had awful experiences with St Catherine and since leaving have heard of others too.
Bullying which results in mental health problems is not dealt with seriously at all and the victim is put into rooms for their breaks to keep them safe while the bully’s can go out to play!
Head teacher is delusional that no child in his school could be bad until you show him the facts then he admits he lets your child down!
One positive is the teacher Mrs clegg who will go above and beyond to help. It’s a shame she wasn’t head of the school then maybe it would be a nicer place for the kids and they would have support.
This school feels like a prison, the punishments are crazy and the rules on uniform are also obscene. The staff are nice but some are not helpful and the head teacher is stubborn and only cares about grades.
I had a really good experience here, the staff are mostly amazing and I think the school as a whole is run pretty well. There’s a good variety of clubs offered, and the subjects are all taught really well.
I did come out with good grades, so I would recommend for people in the area and maybe even for people willing to travel.
the school looks like one of the best but they pride themselves on a select few and only think of their reputation. Not only do they only showcase the same students they give no credit to kids doing really well being in the top halves of all their classes, they only show the very top. They give no effort into keeping clubs and/or groups they created and came up with alive givin all the work and credit back to the same people even after attempting to give other kids a chance. Most of the teacher are very good and even though i came out with mostly good grades i still strongly believe the whole school environment was toxic, bias and unfair

KWA should be put in her place, she needs to realise how rude she is to her students.
