## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — Worst school in West Yorkshire: Disgusting school lots of bulling vaping and lazy staff the teachers don’t even teach they are just there for a laugh. Some teachers even gossip with students about things they do not need to hear honestly I would never send any kid here *(Jun 2025)*
- **1/5** — Worst school!!!!: Really bad school would not recommend at all to send your children to Batley Grammar the staff are really lazy no correspondence from contacting school office to ringing back this has happened on numerous occasions for my daughter GCSE maths certificate was missing from the the envelope she collected been ringing since January 2024 till date have not received any call back or the certificate I've rang a good 10 times to speak to someone regarding this they keep making excuses.She left school in … *(Apr 2025)*
- **1/5** — awful school: I cant lie, the school is an absolute joke. say they’d ring you back, never do, say they’ll arrange meetings, never do unless your child is in the wrong. they are terrible at communication and say one thing and mean the complete opposite. they are totally unfair and treat students differently also. wouldn’t recommend this school, it all went down hill since the new headteacher came last september *(Jun 2024)*
- **1/5** — UNFAIR TREATMENT OF TEACHER: The Head Teacher should Resign for throwing his Teacher under the Bus Regarding Religious Instruction !! He should never have Apologised to the aggressors demonstrating for a lesson that had been given many times!! *(Mar 2024)*
- **1/5** — YOU CAN GET A GCSE IN BAD MANNERS AND VIOLENCE HERE: this school is for the rough and ready type of students, bad manners must be a GCSE subject. *(Dec 2023)*
- **2/5** — NEEDS IMPROVEMENT: I did at one point love this school. now my opinion has changed. LACK OF STAFF, nobody is ever available, and when messages are left no matter how serious you MIGHT get a phone call back. There are some lovely receptionists but half the time you talk to someone who thinks their one cut above the rest. BULLYING is a massive problem here and never gets sorted it's just another normal day for staff because they deal with it all the time, detention is nothing to those kids just more time with their … *(Dec 2023)*
- **1/5** — The dumps.: Absolute horrible behaviour, from pupils and a delayed reaction from teachers who are endlessly hop along to investigate issues. Hard bullying so not for soft going kids. Needs a revamp of expertise in this school. School more like a detention centre total joke. *(Jul 2023)*
- **1/5** — Wasn’t how I expected it: Need to improve by a lot *(May 2023)*
