As a former student at this highschool I would have to say a lot a bad things I would not let your child go to this school because they have a policy of no makeup and dress appropriately what if the child that has confidence issues has to wear something like a jumper to feel more comfortable they they should have the right to do so another thing is not allowing anyone to go to the toilet during lesson time even if the girls have their time of the month if they go once and they have started they go back to class and ask to go to the toilet and they aren’t allowed to go back that has happened to me I was leaking and I had to go due to an emergency and I couldn’t sit down I had to get my dad to come to this school and complain about it I had a very hard time at this school and I know your child will have a very difficult time at this school so please I do not recommend any of your children to go to this school
IF U SEND UR CHILD HERE KEEP AN CLOSE EYE ON THEM!
IF U SEND UR CHILD KEEP AN EYE ON THEM, my best friend has been recently been bullied badly. She has tried to tell teachers, pastorals, the safeguarding team, and even as telling the headteacher, the things that my friends bully does is, racking her bag and just basically dumping out everything, revealing her house address, being mean, laughing at her, and just horrible stuff, my friend said that THE SCHOOL has done nothing. What kind of school just ignores a big problem??
Bullying and harassment
Although we all know of the popularity structure it should not define how teacher should educate the students.
Toilet issues
Not allowed to the toilet in lessons even if you are strongly needing it

Teachers don’t even care about your feelings, always shouting at you for no reason. No one can use toilets , the school is sexist and some teachers are weirdos but some are nice , I don’t recommend going here , they say there one of the best schools in Warrington but I see about 5 students crying everyday
St Gregory
I found this school excellent, looking forward to send my second kid.
Do not send your child here!!
From someone coming as a present student of this school I must say this school is the worst school ever. They shout at you for no reason and they don’t care if your getting bullied they say u shouldn’t say anything to the bully and u should just report it but there is no one there to report it to because most of the time all of pastoral are on duty and there ani bullying policy is none existent if u send ur child here they are most likely to get bullied and let’s not forget about the safety of this school. this school has so many pedo teachers and 2 have already gone public and there’s more teachers that are still in that school that are pedos and the education in sience needs a lot of work when they do chemistry but we never do chemistry because teachers see it as a reward. I don’t recommend this school and please don’t send ur child here
Would send people here if you want a good education
Bosh school goated year 8s plus the anti bullying and chaplaincy team is wonderful helping many of my friends through stressful times, this is from my perspective as a year 8
WORST SCHOOL
horrible school do not send your children here teachers are weird and rude its a poor school think there proper posh with there uniforms but the lot of them are dins do not like any of them your kid would probably get bullied the kids there are horrible can not blame them with them teachers honesty they all need a sack mostly mrs R walker horrible to kids and is getting loud for no reason at all she always trying to start always got them hills on can here for a mile away always having a go about socks yh aint that deep is it just socks so please do not send your child here to help them bee safe somewhere like benit .they force your kids to do things also have a silly thing were they make u come in at twelve just to stay all the way till six wich is ridiculous we eat dinner at 6 so now all my family as to miss dinner and i have to go to school like to pick up my child at six wich is just horrendous
I don’t recommend st Gregory’s
My child asked a member of the staff if he could wear his pe shorts and top but they told him no and started shouting at him then he came home being sick because he had sun stroke being in his blazer and won’t allow him taking it of they said to unbutton your top and take your tie of in my opinion that does not help at all they should improve on this. Another reason why this school is horrendous is that he was 1 minute late and he got a detention he was late cause of traffic but said not a good enough reason. My son was seen on his phone I get the reason to take it off him but not overnight something could of happened to him walking home I strongly advise you not to send your kids here!

As a former student of this high school, I recommend you don’t send your children here. The school are proud of their “anti-bullying policy” that is non existent. Students are constantly getting bullied by other students and if the victim say something back to the bully, the victim gets in trouble. The teachers constantly verbally abuse the students by shouting at them. As a student you’re not allowed to go to the toilet between lessons or during lessons, only break and lunch and that’s if it’s not raining and if it is, they don’t allow you to leave the cafeteria or classrooms at break or lunch. The teachers don’t seem to care about the students, only a fair few are nice to all students and treat them all fairly and like humans. If you suffer with bad mental health caused by bullying or home issues, the only support you get is being taken out of certain lessons throughout the week for a “catch up”. Another thing is the school piles so much homework and revision on students every day to the point where they have too much to complete by the deadlines and then get into trouble. Let alone the stress students have when it comes close to their GCSEs. Every little thing is said to be distracting from things like coloured dyed hair, to short hair cuts, or wearing a necklace that doesn’t have the cross on it, and it gets confiscated too until the teachers decide they are ready to give it back. The school is ridiculous and 100% wouldn’t recommend you send your children here.
Needed improvement on many levels
There’s a lot I could say about this school really, to the fact that they literally shout at you if you have brownies in the corridors to the fact that if you hurt yourself in PE they won’t send you to go back in and clean yourself up. My experience was good but there were definitely things that should have been changed to make the experience better and still improve it now. Honestly the teachers could have been a bit nicer, I mean what’s the point of shouting at a 14 year old because they are going to another food area. Another thing is that you basically get locked in the food areas if it’s raining. They don’t allow you to go to the bathroom or leave the food area. And then when you go to class and say you need the toilet they will shout at you for needing it and going during class when you weren’t allowed to go at break and you obviously can’t control your bladder. If teachers know they can’t control their bladders why do they expect us to control ours. Another thing, if you had natural Afro hair they would tell you that you couldnt have it. Because apparently it’s “distracting” which is absolutely ridiculous and that shouldn’t have been allowed in the school. Honestly because that is beyond any stupid hair rules they may have.
