## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — Officially inadequate: The ofsted report says it all It’s high time the incompetent head was held to account! All of the good teachers have left, the children are out of control yet the head swans round proud as punch that she’s ruined a once lovely school. The governors need to step up and get rid of the head. *(Dec 2023)*
- **1/5** — Failing school: Used to be a great school but has gone rapidly down hill. Behaviour is awful, all the decent staff have left and the headteacher is useless. The children are being let down their behaviour is violent, disrespectful and not much learning takes place. My child was scared every day and didn’t know who her teacher would be as each day for a year a different supply teacher would be teaching ( or at least trying to but almost impossible in the chaos) I can honestly say my child hasn’t learned a thing … *(Aug 2023)*
- **1/5** — Avoid this school just the worse in wirral.: Just no. Horrible never come here it’s the worst school in the wirral I am traumatised after this school. *(Aug 2023)*
- **5/5** — Good school: Amazing just left their in year 7 now this school is good for mental health and always take care of you and teach u very well especially for unstats this school was fab a few arguments but this school is amazing *(Jun 2023)*
- **1/5** — Avoid this school: Awful school. The children are cheeky and often violent towards staff and each other. The teachers are nice, especially in Key Stage 2. My child has had so many teachers this year in Year 5 because no teacher wants to teach a class full of cheeky and disruptive pupils. Teachers seem to stay a few months and leave. No the best school in the area as children run riot and parents make staff powerless to control this *(Mar 2023)*
- **4/5** — Really good school: Very caring staff that want the children to reach their full potential while being mindful of mental health. Excellent provision for special needs children and staff that go above and beyond. *(Aug 2020)*
