## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — CCTV in school toilets: It is deeply concerning that CCTV cameras have been installed in the boys and girls toilets without properly informing parents or children. This lack of transparency may have breached data protection and privacy laws by failing to inform parents and children about CCTV in toilets. This raises serious privacy and legal concerns, and I hope the school will address them promptly.

- **1/5** — HORRIBLE SCHOOL!: The teachers were lovely, most were very nice. The students, that were there were very disrespectful, and many would bully each other. I'm not very happy about this, why have a school if you aren't gonna take care of the students! Shame on you!!

- **2/5** — horrible toilets and bad teacher: in the girls toilet, they have windows to see everything you do in there (not stalls) and they have cctv in there and MALE teachers can see and go in there.

Very bad 😨 And a teacher once kept the whole class behind on period 5 for 10 minutes (last period) because we said bless you to a guy who sneezed because apparently its "calling out".. I swear that woman is an escaped mental asylum patient *(Jul 2023)*
- **1/5** — Review: Very very very bad……. Ashmole better *(Apr 2022)*
