Where do I even start to show my hatred for this school
Moved from David Hughes to Friars about 4 years ago and thought it'd be alright wow was I wrong the amount control people have over you is insane apparently they say they incourage individuality when in actual fact they seem to punish you if you make the slightest change to the uniform yet they don't punish someone who's bullying you I may also add the amount of prejudice racist and biggoted people who go to the school to including some in fact that I'd argue are teachers you can't go a day there without someone saying the n word or making fun of the way you look and generally don't seem to like you if you're above they're intellectual level in any way. They're school meals are also horrible you'd think they'd care enough to give people decently healthy school meals but they don't half the time it's processed meat all the vegetables taste like they've been tjrown in a microwave and they're gravy tastes like a gone off chinese takeaway for some bizzare reason. I used to do GCSE music it wasn't even music all they tought us was how to use a crappy website rather than actually relevant information you should have in a music career the teacher literally said you don't need to tune drums that just goes to show how much they cared about anything plus the fact the instruments are all beaten up and barely work least you could do is look after them I may also add the amount of reliance on the internet I had to do home schooling for 6 months due to problems in my personal life and they flatly refused to give me physical school work even though my school account didn't work properly and they wanted me in full time even though I couldn't even go into school without having a panic attack thinking about the toxic environment within. I think in conclusion the education system in friars works as follows, we want you to pass exams and get us good results no life skills just good grades and we don't care about anything else not even bullying or your wellbeing all of their promotional material is a load of s**t
amazing
head teacher
very amazing the head teacher should come back
Corruption is at every level
Shameful school, business teacher simply provides lessons by showing YouTube videos and bragging about being paid for the privilege. Staff are incapable of telling the truth; they prefer to pretend about professional standards. The care of children higher up the system is extremely poor; staff have favourite pupils and disregard others. Some teachers simply talk about themselves and discuss private issues as if they are royal. The head master (now living in Wrexham) was adored and was lovingly praised by all teachers. The bord constantly backed up the headmaster with no regard to evidence bought against him; again corruption is always near shameful behaviour. Probably the reason why teachers are blatantly incompetent. The evidence is there: ask the students!

Worst school in existence
Horrifically bad school. They do nothing in regards to bullying, numerous complaints and no actions ever taken. Awful when it comes to children's mental health, offer no help and make the matter worse. Continuously place pupils in isolation for long periods of time for ridiculous reasons such as haircuts or nails. Headmaster was proven to be a bully in a court of law, and the school is full of teachers who bully students. Awful, toxic environment for children
Bullies rule
Reported many instances of bullying to the school head of year always says they'll phone back but never once has.
