Beckfoot School

There’s a lot of bad things with this school
System


1: they don’t care about your children’s mental health or well being
2: my child escaped form school and she was already with me by the time the school told me that she had left
3: they call u in for meetings then chat absolute bs to you about your own child
4:the food is horrible 1st day of year 7 my girl got food poisoning from there food and she’s has also found mold and hair in it
5: they don’t care about bullying my daughter was and still is getting bullied and she told the teacher everyday multiple times and they just told her to go back to lessons and did absolutely nothing about it
6: my daughters mental health got rally bad form this school to the point where she locked herself in the school toilets in year 8 and sh witch she would only do it school and the school did nothing all they told her was that she had to keep her jumper on in the middle of summer she almost passed out multiple times form this and she even tried to end it and the school expected her in the next day
7:teachers don’t know what there doing they don’t help the kids in lessons they just send them to iso because they don’t understand

My kids have even said they feel more safe outside the school then in the school or anywhere near it


Overall don’t recommend this school
Don’t understand how they have an outstanding after what I have experience and my kids will not be sending another one to this school once my daughter leaves in 1y

I go to this school and it’s horrible they don’t help at all all they do is care about your attendance and not about mental health or physical health

Do not send your child to this School if they are of any minority. Especially autistic children and LGBTQ children. The students here bully anybody they can find a reason to bully and the staff are utterly useless when it comes to dealing with it. A lot of the staff are rude and clearly inexperienced in dealing with bullying. This school caused me to develop a self-harm problem, social anxiety, body dysmorphia, and have suicidal thoughts.

I've been at Beckfoot since year 8 and have continued right through to Sixth Form, a decision I am readily regretting. I've experienced bullying, days where I've had multiple panic attacks, and what do the teachers do? Nothing. I once vented my heart out with all the problems that have left my heart heavy with negative feelings, and the teacher I was speaking to didn't help me get booked into any counselling sessions with Place2Be (nor did the Sixth Form team when I had been dissociating, in which they said they would help me book a place for a quick starter session), and all she did was call my mother, which did not help at all. There are some teachers (do NOT choose Psychology A-Level, because there is one extremely apathetic teacher that teaches the course) that do not care for a student's mental health and personal issues. The amount of homework given is OUTRAGEOUS! I'm not readily prepared, nor have the time to do an extra 15 hours of work every week! PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE

this school is a disgrace,the headteacher forced a muslim girl to take her hijab off or she will recieve isolation,i just want to know why,just why are they doing this,this school is lacking in a lot of things and it's not even the students bullying eachother,this is litterally the head of the whole school bullying a girl in like year9-year 10,what i don't understand is they are fine with non-muslim girls walking around half naked but when a pious young clean woman is covering her body so pervets like this headteacher don't stare at them all day,it's a big problem

I’m a student who just left beckfoot doing my GCSE’S. The school does not deserve the reputation it has. It is horrible and especially when it comes to bullying and mental health. Even when I refused to go into classes they refused to help. They only helped when I admitted to self-harm but it should have NEVER got to that point. It’s disgusting how they get a good reputation please never put your kid through this school.

Beckfoot is an awful school. I’m in year 11 now and stopped going in when schools opened from covid again. Beckfoot is disgusting and terrible with mental health and bullying. I’ve was bullied often and the school did nothing and usually side with the naughty/popular students. I did not go to school for over 2 years due to the depression and anxiety this school gave me over the years. I ended up feeling suicidal and under stress all because of this school. If anyone is thinking of taking their kids to beckfoot, don’t do it for the sake of them. This school needs sorting out.

Really bad school head teacher don't care about the students at all there all just a number to them bullying is the main thing nothing gets done about it and when staff are questioned they lie and manipulate the situation the school should definatly not have the ousted they have please avoid sending children to this school at all cost my child has never has a dinner here due to other older students stopping him from doing so i wish I was told before sending my child

absoulutely shit school they say awful stuff to my child and she wants to be in school but they said they hate her DO NOT SEND YR KIDS HERE

Not nice to the students

We've been at Beckfoot for a few years now and I've been consistently impressed with the school's focus on the values of enjoyment, learning and success. The staff are always so supportive and the facilities are fantastic. My child has really thrived here and I feel confident that they are getting a great education.

fantastic good great amazing wonderfull

Go to have a future this school will help you.

Not bad but can defo be improved

We chose Beckfoot for its strong community and family-friendly atmosphere, and we've been delighted with the experience so far. The school's commitment to inclusivity and student well-being is really impressive, and the staff are all so approachable and supportive. We're looking forward to seeing our child progress here.

Very neglectful of the students

Really bad school don’t recommend going

We were at Beckfoot for a few years, and while it was a bit hit-and-miss in terms of our experience, there were definitely some standout staff and programs. The school's focus on STEM subjects was really great, and my child enjoyed their time in the sixth form. However, we did have some issues with communication and organisation at times, which made things a bit stressful. Overall, I'd say it was a solid school with some great aspects, but not quite perfect.
