Judge for yourself

Having read the negative reviews on here, I would hope that common sense prevails and it's realised that a lot of the statements are untrue. There are incidents of bullying as there are thousands of students ages 11-18. They are dealt with as well as can be expected. There are no occasions where teachers physically abuse students or conduct themselves in a unprofessional manner. Girls that have to wear trousers, must do so because they have had 3 recorded incidents of rolling skirts up so that they're ridiculously short. This has nothing to do with distracting boys but has everything to do with breaking uniform rules. Students aren't allowed to wear coats in lessons but are in between. Incidents that occur outside school are not so easy to manage but are addressed and students are allowed to use the toilet during lesson time if they have a medical reason or extenuating circumstances. Please look at the results that the school achieves. My son attended this school and they went above and beyond to ensure that he was in the right sets and that he got the results he needed. The send team is also amazing. Remember that one place doesn't suit everyone and to judge for yourself.

St George’s academy bullying

This school is absolutely pathetic excluding a student for sticking up to a bully how stupid how this carries on happening is ridiculous the school needs to really think about the behaviour system please don’t let your child go to either of the campuses they will get punished for something that is ridiculous

Not good

Many students don't care about doing well in school and the school lacks the ability to effectively sanction poorly behaved students.

not for me.

a person i’m related to who attends this absolute prison comes home crying every day, school should be ashamed of themselves, the staff and their students. poor catering too and from what i’ve heard inside the lessons it’s absolutely ridiculous and i wouldn’t recommend it. i’ve seen the instagram and facebook and it’s all a bunch of lies it looks as though a paradise when in reality a big shit hole.

True colours

Someone got chased with a plastic knife . The food is amazing but the school is ridiculous, the conduct card is a bit stupid and the new system is unmanageable.

bad school

As a student at this school all I can say is that I only heard bad stuff about this school . This school will not care about your mental health and only cares about how there teachers/staffs image comes across. another rubbish thing about this school is that there have been assembly's where girls have been taken out of lines and told that they will get raped and kidnaped if they go out dressed like that and told that it is unfair on the male teachers!!!

Horrible schoo;

As a student of this school, being here for around 2 years now, I'd say the majority of students don't want to attend their lessons due to bullying or how horrible their teachers are. Some teachers are respectful and incredibly nice but not enough of the staff are to make lessons enjoyable. Over the course of this term, there have been multiple outbreaks of fights, this has caused stress upon those who are just trying to get through the school day without getting beat up. Teachers don't know how to settle down a class and causes even more chaos than is, most children get shouted and yelled at without being gave a chance to explain their side of a story. Mental health services in the school campus are appalling, the school doesn't help whatsoever. There are so many sketchy students that vape, drug deal or even commit crimes. The school cares more about its public image than the actual well being and safety of students. One student was purposely pushed in front of a moving vehicle and the child that caused this only got isolation for a morning! In this school, many children have fallen victim to homophobia, racism, transphobia and more. Treating most students improperly and when reported nothing happens. It is an absolute hellhole! There was a treacherous assembly where they pulled all the girls out of a line for innocent uniforms and told them, they would get raped and kidnapped in the streets for how they were dressed and it being unfair on male teachers, some of which had already had rumours of pedophilia. I have heard of male teachers looking under girl's skirts when dropping a pencil or pen during lesson, which has been spotted numerous of times yet nothing being done.

Mental health

If you are a bully who wrecks havoc, destroys, abuses and batters people then you survive this prison hell hole that is called a school…. If you are non of the above then your mental health declines to point school is unbearable and worst of all so is life! They seem to allow it all to continue, they don’t deal with the problems and look past those in desperate need of help! I have seen this decline in my family member and it breaks my heart! Let’s all hope for a more caring hierarchy so that you people have a chance to flourish and be happy in life!

Good school

Quite a good school but the parent pay system is ridiculous!!! I’d rather let my daughter pay with cash . But it’s shocking how the different year groups wear different uniforms . It costs so much money and the girls wear branded skirts . They need an art club for my daughter and her friends who have requested one !

Please send your children somewhere else.

Stupid school, bad staff/teachers. Care about image more then the mental well being of there students. Messy classrooms, messy hallways. Teachers yelling and bad mouthing students. Bullying, racism, homophobia is not dealt with. Only a couple teachers were nice but all left due to another staff member. Bad communication and a generally bad school

Hell on earth

It’s absolutely awful. Avoid at all costs. I’m a current student of the school and the past few years have been absolutely hell. The school only cares about its image and not about mental health or well being. It’s so bad that I struggle to go to school myself because of persistent bullying and vile students and the absolutely awful teachers and staff that do nothing about it. Sure there’s the occasional descent teacher. But they are rare in this school. It’s absolute hell. DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL AT ANY COST.

Worth going somewhere else

Most teachers don't understand how to handle a class. Absolute chaos and madness. Children are shouted at and don't get a chance to explain themselves should they make a mistake. Mental health services are awful, the school won't help much whatsoever. Loads of dodgy students, some are even known to be drug dealers. Find another school.

Avoid this school at all costs

This school cares more about it’s image then the actual well-being and safety of its students. One student who is relentlessly bullied, with multiple witnesses, was placed in detention when he complained because they accused him of making it up. Another student was purposefully pushed in front of a moving vehicle and all the pusher got was isolation for a morning. This school protects the bullies instead of the bullied and uses a child’s mental health against them using manipulation.

School

Personally I got on quite well. Some of the teachers you come across are lovely yet others may not be. In terms of dealing with pastoral issues they need to improve. But the support I got from my form tutor and various subject teachers is fantastic.

don’t go there

awful, they have new staff members leaving all the time and students are always having new teachers. the toilets are 99% of the time unhygienic (the boys mainly) the food prices increase all the time and the options for food have decreased. the punishment system is unfair and the school is overall not good

1 stupid punishment

The punishments are ridiculous. They make kids stay in a room for 3 days and they can't go out for fresh air during their 1se and 2nd break. My son had this happen to him and I have removed him as the school put him in a room for 3 days. But they did nothing when he was being bullied.

Disgraceful

They care more about what the students are wearing/look like and the image of the school than they do about the actual education and mental health of students

It’s a hell hole

There was that wack assembly where they pulled all the girls out of a line for “incorrect uniform” and then told us we would get raped and kidnapped in the streets for how we dressed and saying how unfair it was on the male teachers. Some of which have already had rumours about them being pedophilic if you’ve ever heard of a teacher looking under girls skirts after dropping a pencil or pen etc which has been spotted a few times by other previous and newer students. They also target a lot of people struggling with mental issues that come out in the form of anti social behaviour in their eyes

school

It’s just rubbish and they don’t do anything about your problems and the teachers need to stop piping up and pipe down to students and about corona virus omg they seriously care about what we are wearing at school not anything else
