- **1/5** — Avoid this school especially Kyle hadaway: Hands down the most incompetent school in West yorkshire, you could send your daughter too, the biggest joke is Kyle Hadaway who's meant to be a safegaurding lead but completely ignored my daughters pleas for transparency, she lied through her teeth in child in need and child protections meeting to help my wife cover her abuse of our daughter. She refused to speak up and call out foul play even though she asked my daughter on numerous occasions what had happened. I pray everyday she gets karma f… *(Nov 2025)*
- **1/5** — Kyle Hadaway is incompetent and a liar: My daughter attends here, probably the worst safegaurding team in the country lead by kyle Hadaway who is a compulsive liar and will do everything and anything to support a mother over their own students voice. Ms Hadaway has witheld the truth and lied in front of a safegaurding team to ensure a student was forced to stay with her mother who was physically abusive to her and further alienated from paternal family Kylie Hadaway is a teacher of poor morale compass and someone who cannot be trusted… *(Jul 2025)*

Please find another college as the bursary system here is complicated and they are many restrictions that does not comply with the students financial needs.

They do not provide these fees and do it in such a way you have to… *(May 2025)*
- **1/5** — Appalling and sickening: Reading the reviews here is really upsetting, especially knowing they come from students—kids, really. No one should have to go through any of what's been shared. I attended Batley Girls’ High School from 2016 to 2023. But in my two years of sixth form, I noticed some disturbing things. White students were consistently favoured and privileged in a way that was hard to ignore. Teachers actively encouraged this, bringing their own personal biases and prejudices into the school. The racism I witnes… *(Nov 2024)*
- **1/5** — WORST SCHOOL: This school is a total joke. White kids get away with everything like swearing at teachers and walking out of class .while the rest of us , especially Muslims get punished for the tiniest things.They can't even afford heating,so we freeze in class, but we get detention for wearing coats. Meanwhile,the teachers strut around in their ugly coats without any issue. They claim to have a no bullying policy and preach about kindness like they're saints, but that's all a load of crap. They treat us like… *(Sep 2024)*
