## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — Corrupted School: Terrible system in the school they leave one person in charge which is the year of head and she knows the system how to fiddle the statements so if your child is in trouble, she won’t help them because she won’t take statements from where they needed. She’ll go to people that are biased. Don’t send your kids to this school. It’s very corrupted. *(Dec 2025)*
- **1/5** — one of the worst schools oat: this school was really bad from the education side to the teachers side. All the teachers getting their big salary makes them automatically think its ok to start on every student they feel like which makes the teachers a bunch of d1ckheads. the education is just copy and pasted from the internet and then tell us to write in our books. *(Oct 2025)*
- **1/5** — what the fuck is this school: if i could go any lower i could but sadly i cant. im a year 9 student ans this shit hole needs to get shut down. they have sent me on several placements to different schools for nothing and when i try and calm down im getting screamed at. im in the arc currently cuz one of the teachers were calling me, my head of year only got involved cuz i called her a megamind looking cunt and that her hair line was that far back it starts behind her ears. honestly wish i could leave *(Jul 2024)*
- **1/5** — Former Student: Bad excuse for a school, they always pick on the good students when the bad students have done and been doing way worse. Being out in isolation for days because of a nose piercing while they let of bullying name calling harassment and ignore it whe its right infront of them *(May 2024)*
- **1/5** — its a bad school: This school is honestly the worst. The people there are so two faced its unreal, don't even get me started on the teachers, there the worst they don't help in school, they don't help with mental health. Its honestly just the worst. *(Mar 2024)*
- **3/5** — Average: A genuinely honest review, I think the school overall is okay. The teachers were fine, but at times there were a lack of teachers, which meant that we would have loads of supplies in our last vital years leading up to the GCSEs. The students on the other hand, aren’t the best and definitely picking a few good friends instead of knowing the whole school is probably the best choice. My experience at school was only a let down due to the students and not the teachers themselves. Achieved okay grade… *(Aug 2023)*
- **1/5** — Terrible: If I could give this school terrible I would I got assaulted by a teacher and my head of year lied to my parents saying she was there and it didn't happen but my parents already saw the mark on my arm they refuse to help with my mental health issues just calling it "bad behaviour" the same teacher who assaulted me never got suspended and no investigation was done she still works with kids to this day it is a madness how this school is still running *(Aug 2023)*
- **3/5** — Not the worst atleast: Glad it's over. Some great memories, some trauma. Some things happen in that school that teachers have no idea about. Don't mix with the wrong crowd and maybe your school life will look completely different to mine. *(Aug 2022)*
- **1/5** — This school is very bad: Does help my child with there mental problems *(Apr 2022)*
- **1/5** — Screw you: I hate this school, simply because I get bullied daily, and they're doing nothing about it. The one time they did something, was because I retaliated. *(Jun 2021)*
