## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — Terrible school: Terrible. Aside from a handful of decent kids, lots of deprived, nasty children… Bullying, inadequate teachers, science teachers are awful!! Safeguarding is a joke and bullies get priority. Many racist and hateful children..Headteacher has pulled herself away from the whole thing and it’s now just deputies for every major decision. Really, really bad. *(Jan 2025)*
- **1/5** — Bad and horrible school: This school is horrible. Honestly thw worst i have EVER BEEN TO. Literally on the first year i was there i wanted to leave. PARENTS READING THIS PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR KIDS IF THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS SCHOOL. The facilities are horrible, ugly, and old and for people who are saying this isnt true you just have only seen the reception and they only make it look nice so they can fool parents into thinking the school facilities are good. I also forgot to mention but being another race but white (etc.… *(Sep 2024)*
- **1/5** — Review: The head mistress is awful, she has put my child on safeguarding without telling me, she has taken the word of a narcisdistic father without having any sort of conversation with me, I have also been taken off the SIMS app, again, without any conversation, I am registered as first contact but the school never call me and only ever call the narcissistc father! My child lives with me but I get no communication from the school whatsoever. The head mistress is very unaccommadating and I have witnesse… *(Sep 2023)*
- **1/5** — Strongly advice against joining the sixth form or the school: I strongly recommend against joining this school, especially the sixth form is appalling. Some of the teachers are great but the others are way underqualified for teaching A Level. Please join this school if you want to do BTECs but do not expect quality teaching when it comes to A Level STEM subjects. The standards at the sixth form and school is very low. I hope that the Admin seriously reconsiders its priorities and improve its teaching of STEM subjects. *(Aug 2023)*
- **3/5** — why is it so bad: they say its good, but its not really, like its okay for education, but the facilities arent great. there is no music program, you have to pay for dance GCSE, drama doesnt have sufficient mat, art has no paint. and most of the teachers dont care. Its an experience *(Aug 2021)*
