The education within subjects is varied, where some teachers genuinely were paternal and did care for you, and taught their subjects in a way you'd understand, but it varied heavily and some teachers didn't know how to control classes. Many of the " paternal" teachers tend to leave, which in my case was high. What it left us were people who didn't study the same curriculum as us, and often didn't kn… *(Dec 2025)* - **5/5** — Good school: Great school. Strict rules meaning the kids can't get away with things. About to ban mobile phone usage in school which I think is great by having kids put phones in lockable pouches. School results are very good. *(Apr 2025)* - **1/5** — Racism, misogyny, homophobia rife..: I would not recommend Charters School. Misogyny, racism, and homophobia are widespread and unchecked. Bullying is not taken seriously — despite meetings with heads of year and school governors, no meaningful action was taken. There is little regard for students’ mental health or how they’re affected by these issues. Our child witnessed a violent attack in class. The teacher couldn’t manage the situation and had to call security to stop the assault. This wasn’t an isolated incident. Verbal abuse … *(Apr 2025)* - **5/5** — Excellent School very Supportive: This school is very supportive of children who are observing the Holy Month of Ramadan. They allow children to either sit PE lessons or very very mild exercise. The PE teacher is Mr. Marris and he is brilliant not only with the children but also with the parents. I also want to mention Miss Lane the attendance officer who actually uses her common sense before sending letters to parents for poor attendance. This review is left by Nadeem Kiyani. *(Mar 2025)* - **2/5** — Suicidal students at charters: This school offers no support for the year 7s who are starting the school. These children have come from some rural schoolhouse with no more than a dozen students to a literal college with 1500+ students. They expect to be fine with the change but it’s so terrifying and overwhelming especially for neuro divergent students. Speaking about neurodiversity if you weren’t diagnosed at birth, they don’t give a fig. Autism and Hypersensitivity can occur at any age but I don’t think they know that. Thos… *(Jan 2025)* - **2/5** — Don’t go if your friends aren’t going: Some teachers are amazing and help you a lot, but some, (mainly some of the HOY and tutors) are down right lazy and don’t care about your situation, during my time at the school I have been bullied and contacted school many times and nothing ever happened, except from them saying I would be put into ELSA (support sessions) and they just forgot to give me the sessions I asked for even though they said I would have them, many teachers don’t have passion for teaching and are only there to be payed … *(Sep 2024)* - **2/5** — A very 'special' school...: What a delightful private school that produces such fine judges as the honourable C. Hehir, who sentences peaceful protestors to many years in prison. And to impart such vast knowledge of science that the reality of climate change can be denied. Truly an accomplishment to 'educate' such alumni...! *(Jul 2024)* - **1/5** — Think twice! Dont be fooled by the Ofsted report!!: I cannot express how poor this school is, if your child does fit the mould, has mental health issues or struggles in a school environment then please don’t send your child to Charters. They will be made to feel like a failure and definitely won’t be supported in their education. *(Mar 2024)* - **1/5** — Honestly rubbish: So I’m an ex student from this school the amount of times I went to my head of year because I was being bullied in I had support and they tried and tried that probably the best part about that school which is the LSC ( learning support centre) although they tried helping me it pushed me to give up and now I’m on my second year at college they have given me a councillor to help me through it because of the teacher not doing anything *(Oct 2023)* - **1/5** — Horrendous experience: My five years spent at this school were hell. The level of bullying experienced was near unbearable and the support non-existent. The rampant homophobia I was forced to put up with has caused damage I’m still working through now, over ten years later. They ignored my every complaint and request for help so thoroughly, I was consequently ignored academically as well. They managed to miss my blatant dyslexia that was picked up on within my first few weeks of attending college. Instead, I was consi… *(Mar 2023)* ## Other schools in Ascot - [St Francis Catholic Primary School, South Ascot](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/ascot/st-francis-catholic-primary-school-south-ascot-16527) — 3.4/5 (4 reviews) - [Holy Trinity CofE Primary School, Sunningdale](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/ascot/holy-trinity-cofe-primary-school-sunningdale-4080) — 1.3/5 (3 reviews) - [St Mary's School Ascot](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/ascot/st-marys-school-ascot-4112) — 5.0/5 (1 reviews) - [LVS Ascot](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/ascot/lvs-ascot-4140) — 4.0/5 (1 reviews) - [Heathfield School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/ascot/heathfield-school-4109) - [Papplewick School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/ascot/papplewick-school-4110) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
