## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — Brentwood County High School (BCHS): When we first visited the school, the head and SEND staff were warm and welcoming and really reassured us of the excellent care our son would have. Before starting in Year 7, there were many introductory days and son thoroughly enjoyed those. Head has now left and what can I say. While the current head is lovely and caring, I am not sure that she has senior staff that supports the school ethos. There are many good and caring teachers and staff members but unfortunately, they are often overlooked… *(Nov 2023)*
- **1/5** — hate is: load of bolocks shit school hate mrs emmerson. *(May 2023)*
- **1/5** — This is a terrible school.: This is s terrible school and I do not recommend it at all , someone I know went to this school and experienced hell , students run around with razor blades in their hands and cut other children’s arms on purpose. Not to mention during the snow razor blades where also in snowballs and thrown at students and have serious injuries , but to add on , the teachers won’t do anything about it. The teachers shout at the students for no good reason and even said they would disown them if the students whe… *(Feb 2023)*
- **1/5** — No communication: I have had nothing but problems with this school they paint it as a great school and that the teachers care but I disagree I’ve sent numerous emails regarding issues with my child and no one reply’s it’s near enough impossible to talk to a head on the phone a lot of good teachers have left and all they have is teachers from other subjects covering they haven’t a clue what they are supposed to be learning and the class is in chaos I recently emailed and spoke to a teacher about my child’s maths c… *(Dec 2022)*
- **4/5** — Jessica school: I went there form year 7 to 11 year I love there at the end but at first I was not happy because the students are not nice but the teachers are lovely I got along with most teachers but the are doing building work there at the moment so it confusing to get round the school *(Dec 2022)*
- **5/5** — Great school: BCHS is a great school! Teachers are so dedicated to making sure students learn and progress. The school has great facilities and a wide range of subjects, which are made both fun and engaging. The school has an amazing sixth form where the support is amazing and is great for lower school too. The school receives consistently good GCSE results and A Levels placing it as one of the highest achieving in the area. *(Oct 2021)*
- **3/5** — Could be better...: To be fair it’s really a hit or miss with the school. you can have a really good teacher for one subject and the teacher not do anything in another, also sets can be a problem because they put all the misbehaved kids in with the other people that need help which leads to chaos in most lessons. The food could be better and the Covid-19 situation wasn’t handled very well. However since the new headteacher has joined things has progressively gotten better except the uniforms with the slit down the … *(Mar 2021)*
