"Behaviour from teachers"

So a 15yr old didn't feel to good so go's in at 12.pm. so goes in still feels sick. Went to the toilet. Then had to ask the staff for a sanitary product as it was a period. Turns in to class a little late . Then threatened with isolation from 8am till 4pm the next day because she had the determination to try and go to school. So instead of a man telling her she is still late so that's what's happening.
I say no its not its appalling had a period and got threatened for it.

"Revolting"

horrible food, disgusting use of teacher knowledge, and absolutely no support or help for those with special needs or special requirements. i am dumbfounded that the government has not shut this place down with how physically revolting this place actually is in the back buildings.
