## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — Avoid if you're academically ambitious or part of a minority group: I studied here for GCSEs and A Levels, where I experienced bullying and harassment on a daily basis. This was completely disregarded by staff. As a teenager, I was suicidal and wanted to drop out and self-study due to the way I was treated. Expect racial and sexual harassment that is ignored by staff. I have had ongoing therapy for years and only now feel like I'm recovering from my past experiences at 22. Please think carefully before sending your child here. *(May 2025)*
- **1/5** — One year after my first review.: A year after my first review, I've decided to make yet another review. I would still rather to the gulag than go to this school, cause I'd know that I've done something to deserve it rather than rotting in a sty while being "taught" stuff that I don't need. 70% of the time you do stuff that you don't need; the other 30% is break and lunchtime, excluding the fact that you'd probably be in detention for some irrelevant/impossible thing like not doing the 40-mark question that was set yesterday. I … *(Jun 2024)*

- **1/5** — My experience as a parent: So to start off with my son went to this school just left recently with all the other year 11s. They was numerous racist comments left about my son calling him such words I can’t describe on this website. All I am saying is please don’t come to this school if I knew this would have happened I would have not took him there. My son used to come home to me in year 8-9 saying to me students were trying to peer pressure my son into vaping and smoking in the toilets. I don’t know how children these da… *(Apr 2023)*
- **1/5** — Terrible and sad: Terrible the school is racist they allow bullies no matter your colour that’s a fact they ignore complaints punish the victims. The headmaster acts clue less the head of years make no sense being there at all. The school allows diabolical behaviour from both teachers and students. *(Jan 2023)*

- **1/5** — shithole worse than barking: bit shite but the psychology teacher is good (G.L) *(Nov 2022)*
