The Polesworth School

I got a chicken nugget but then... no chicken ?

The school is okay. The problem I have though is the food and some of the students. I am new there and a lot of students are quite nasty. A lot of them are really nice but there are just some that think it's okay to treat people like they are a piece of trash. Luckily the staff are really great and sort things out. The problem with the food is that it is disgusting and way overpriced. I had £5 on my account at the start of the day and only bought something at lunch, a bottle of water and a sandwich and I had 40p left. And the fact that they expect you to be there everyday and make us pay for food, we should get free school meals since half of us can't afford to pay £5 for water and a sandwich. Apparently they spent nearly £1 million on a building. Even one of the dinner ladies told me hat they have raised the food prices.. Tbh I don't find that okay. Also some of the staff are rude. The other day me and my friends needed to collect something from a classroom since our teacher told us to come get it at break and this cleaner started shouting at us to get out as soon as we walked into the building. She wasn't cleaning and was just standing there in the corridor. There was no need for that attitude. There is a lot of litter around the whole school as well.

Opportunity s for academic student Lots of afters school activities. Sen useless, no support for students with mental health problems in fact threatened and treated like naughty kids

Bullies were left unpunished, child being bullied was instead punished. Dress code quite unfair, not allowed yellow stitching on DMs but allowed white. Most teachers are nice, decent education but if your mental health is bad or at risk then do not go

Someone else has said the same senco are useless there. Treated like a naughty child, when struggling with mental heath issues.

Used to be a brilliant school, for academic children that don't mind being talked down to still is. Some brilliant staff there, but others that are not. If your child has any sort of mental health problems I don't recommend it, Sen didn't get involved, so he was treated like a naughty child, his anxieties are so bad he now has to have home schooling. I had a very bad experience myself there and would never go back. Its shame as I say there are some brilliant staff there

I am very unhappy, the dinner portions are atrocious. Went to the canteen for a wrap and they gave me less than half a spoon, very stingy and i’m very disappointed. I am growing, and they gave me 5 chips. Don’t eat here or go here cause the school is atrocious.Not only that but they have closed the study centre and no one has anywhere to sit as it is too cold and wet outside

This school is great they look after everyone and help you out when you are down recommend getting your kids here

This school has behaviour managers they look after their kids.

The teaching staff are great and go out of there way to help but the special needs support is appalling the SENCO told us that our child who has a genetic condition that she's just an attention seeker and even blocked special statement on the grounds that they have seen her walking not taking into account the fluidity about chronic illness

The staff are kind they sort bullying out on the same day very safe with covid last year their was one teacher that everyone didn't like but she's gone now

Behaviour system is awful.

Hate this school, full of bullies and teachers are horrible. All kids are just horrible and have had once a slush tipped over me and my glasses snached of my face and stamped on and I had to pay for a new pair. School didn’t do anything at all about any of these things so I just gave up trying to report anyone

Full of bullies and teachers are nasty. Don't send your kid here
