GCSE

Cruel, unjust and torturous. DO NOT GO EVER!

Terrible school. Couple of good teachers but overall quite bad. It is horribly maintained, only 1 toilet (only one male and one female) available to years 7-11 (which are in such poor condition id rather wee myself) and for sixth form theres only one extra in the sixth form building.

One of the D&T teachers put so much stress on me to get my NEA piece done I had a panic attack walking home and fully broke down when I got home.

The boys PE teachers also treat everyone as if its a boot camp and we're all preparing to go into the army.

One of the triple science physics teachers didn't teach us a thing and just got us to look at a slide show and complete the questions in a booklet without explaining anything.

One computer science teacher has a serious anger management problem and one doesnt teach you a singular thing.

One of the maths teachers doesn't teach anyone anything and neglects his higher level students to focus on his foundation tier students.

One of the science teachers literally vapes (I never had her but I have heard about it)

The building is practically rotting.

The staff don't do a single thing other than tell your parents about everything you say to them or they do nothing.

There has been quite a few sexual assaults and alot of sexual harrassments from students to other students, which I as a cisgender male have had happen to me again and again, and the teachers don't do a thing even after yelling from distress in the middle of lesson.

Students who are tolerable are few and very far between so if youre looking for a kind person to make a friend with at school, don't come here.

Oh yeah and don't get me started with the food.

Not one bit of the food there was properly cooked, hot or probably even fit for human consumption.
Soggy muffins, undercooked pasta, microwaved pizza (no joke basically everything is microwaved there. Nothing is cooked properly)

If you want a good education, you'd probably be better off getting homeschooled by your cat in a desert with no water because at least you can go to the toilet in lesson without developing bladder stones. (They tell you to get better at holding it in or go at lunch/break even of its the first ever time you've needed to go in their lesson)

If you want a torturous and a straight up cruel high school experience, this is the place for you.

Welcome to hell

This school is extremely bad. Half the kids here are addicted to nicotine and although they say that vaping and cigarettes are bad, THEY DON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Another thing is that the behaviour is appalling. You have kids with knives walking around on school premises. You can't even take a dump because the kids knock down the cubicle doors. When this school is finally shut down I'm going to get griddy Fortnite style and dance on the graves of the teachers jobs.

Awful for Sixth Formers

Absolutely abysmal support for sixth formers. Low attendance was out down to laziness when it was linked to a variety of issues within the school. Sixth Form teachers were very good however. Subjects don’t receive enough funding from the higher ups meaning even very passionate and knowledgeable teachers will struggle. Not an issue with the teachers at all, this is an issue with those higher up who have no idea about the needs of students.

Good school but issues

Good school overall, needs help with their bullying policies though. Not enough help for people who are on the receiving end.

Actual abuse

This school actually gave me ptsd from lasting childhood trauma. Do NOT send your child here, they well be neglected and emotionally abused. The staff are allowed to be freely transphobic to students, and while they say they have a no-racism policy, I have witnessed on many occasions a teacher being racist towards their students. Sexism (going BOTH ways) is also a big problem. To conclude, I hope this place gets shut down before it scars too many children.

Good school!

Really good, took education seriously and somehow managed to control handfuls of annoying teenager! Big well done!
