The lack of help from teachers when a student is getting builled. It is a horrible place, my daughter attended this school she had to be moved due to the problems listed above. Its a undeveloped and unhealthy working environment that needs to be sorted. It's not only the students that's the issue it's the teachers do not recommend. *(Dec 2024)* - **1/5** — Jail has more freedom and consistency than that place: The only good teachers are the ones who don't care and the bad ones take the rules to far, the rules change throughout the year and it looks like it's about to collapse, half the teachers are never in and no-one takes a supply teacher seriously so at the end of the day we don't learn anything and if 9ur teachers actually in they spend half the lesson yelling at some kid instead of sending them out, they only have one toilet which is always locked during lessons, and they care more about blazers … *(Sep 2024)* - **2/5** — hit or miss: half the teachers dont show up, punishments and rules are wildly inconsistent, looks like its never been cleaned before. there are some very good teachers but also some very bad, depends if youre lucky. completely faked everything for the inspection it was so weird, them 5 stars are fakeeee *(Sep 2020)* ## Other schools in Bournemouth - [Avonbourne Girls Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bournemouth/avonbourne-girls-academy-13593) — 1.4/5 (20 reviews) - [The Bishop of Winchester Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bournemouth/the-bishop-of-winchester-academy-11943) — 1.4/5 (16 reviews) - [Glenmoor Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bournemouth/glenmoor-academy-15040) — 2.0/5 (15 reviews) - [Bournemouth School for Girls](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bournemouth/bournemouth-school-for-girls-12622) — 3.0/5 (12 reviews) - [The Bourne Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bournemouth/the-bourne-academy-11947) — 2.3/5 (10 reviews) - [Avonbourne Boys' Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bournemouth/avonbourne-boys-academy-21042) — 2.0/5 (9 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
