Being bullied
It's the worst school for bullying I know someone who's getting bullied for no reason he report it twice nothing happened
Awful School
Awful school, as a former students parent i can say the staff are patronising and are just a bunch of liars. Would never let my daughter step foot back into this school again so glad she has left. The teachers here , specifically senior teachers, are extremely entitled and quite frankly act more like children than the children do. Hoping with the headteacher change something will in fact be done about the appalling behaviour of the staff instead of shifting blames on the kids. Had many disgusting comments made by staff to my daughter such as 'you need to be medicated' and 'thats not very modest or ladylike' which i genuinely have no words for. Do not send your kids here! Say they want children to express themselves but as soon as it is done it goes down as bad behaviour. Honestly wouldnt even want my dog to come to a place like this.

SHIT SCHOOL
This is an absolutely awful school. If you aren’t smart enough, they will exclude you and call you a bad-behaved student they don’t care about mental health issues and they act as if you’re making it all up. I went to the school for four years and had to leave because how about the bullying got the school didn’t do anything about it, but just completely ignored what I was telling them and the bullying still continues even after I had to leave I was told I was trying to attract the wrong attention on my way to school from wearing knee-high socks by the deputy head, Miss Holden who put me in the inclusion zone multiple times because of this situation. It was very unfair, and even after my mum had contacted she had a go at my mum and was made to apologise the next day.

Shit school
Absolutely awful if you have any mental health issues don’t join you just get shamed by teachers for it who then slag you off to other teaches nothing is kept confidential and they talk down to you even if you nice.
Told me I wasn’t allowed to go to a “ mainstream “ school because I’m autistic and refused to believe to just called me a bad naughty student STAY AWAY FROM THE HOLDEN she will call you a slag for wearing knee high socks and exclude you 🥲

It was horrible
They don’t handle bullying well at all. Hardly have any care for students mental health and well-being in and out of school and treat students and parents of the students atrociously and provide hardly any support.
Honest review from a 2022 leaver
Most teachers help for everything from at home to different subjects. Nice layout and easy to know your way about. Food could be better but can't complain. Prices for uniform are OK but a slight bit expensive in large sizes. While fairly relaxed the school is overly strict on the wrong things. But had a great time being there.
Year 9 review
I love going here. They have a range of activities that you can participate in and they take lots of measures to keep everyone safe.
Review from a current Year 10
Wonderful school. Love going here it’s a treat. I have SEN needs and the support me amazingly and are always there for me. The staff here are wonderful and very kind.
