"Not best option for school"

There can be some ok days but mostly it is miserable and some teachers don't even help you when stuck, overall not a good school it was better when i was in year 7 but has gone down hill since the old headteacher left, the new one isn’t bad but her rules are awful. Do not recommend !

"A really bad school"

It is horrible I’ve been going to school here and the way they deal with things is so bad. You need to wear school uniform which is really uncomfortable and crappy school shoes which hurt the heck out of our feet and if you refuse to wear them you get isolation and they say that I need to be looking for a new school just because of a pair of shoes. They say that they won’t make us feel uncomfortable when some of the teachers literally force you to do something when you don’t want to do it and if you refuse you get detention. Also most of the teachers are really rude and don’t have manners. They are also really poor on supplies like calculators and pens and they don’t buy them even though they spend more than £12000 on uniform that won’t affect anything and then they say that we need to get good grades and do well. And in winter they don’t turn on radiators and won’t let us wear our coats in lessons when it’s freezing so we can’t concentrate. Phones are banned all around then school even at our free time at break and lunch it’s literally like a prison. And the food is always either too dry or the meat is raw sometimes and they sell their things for such high amount of money like if it gonna get their chicken burger that has no salad or sauce and I have to pay for the sauce it’s gonna a be £3.50. I acc don’t recommend.

"Don't send your kids here!!!"

Awful school! The teachers are assholes, especially that one bitchy art teacher, Miss Ordanaz (I don't care if I spelt that wrong). She was awful and got us to do boring "art" work and would guilt trip us for wanting to do something that is more artsy and would ruin your art work if it doesn't meet her standards. She gave me and almost the whole class a really low grade even though she chose what each of us was doing. She definitely needs to sort herself out and needs to stop taking her frustration out on her students.

They do absolutely nothing about bullying even though they say they "take bullying seriously"

Hope this school get shut down.

"Do Not go to Long Hill High School"

This school was horrible from the years 7/8/9/10 (Year 11 was the best)
Year 7, I was bullied through out the whole year (nothing was stopped or helped with) No help with work ever at all, countless warnings and detentions for no reasons at all.
Year 8, nothing much (covid happened) Still bullied, Year 9, Most horrible, beaten up by 40 Students at once ( I was left on the floor till lesson started Around 10 minuets later), Year 10, same thing, year 11 (best year due to being chill and just exams.

The teachers do not give a single care to anyone only to the ones who do work that doesn't help with education.

So I'd not recommend going to this school.

"Great school"

It is an amazing high school, I would highly recommend it, you learn a lot from going there and they are quick to stamp out any bullying and stuff. Highly recommended

"Really bad "

Some teachers were nice most of them were ass holes they don’t care about students mental health they don’t care about the students getting the right grades they would rather give the students isolation for not wearing the right uniform than helping the students with school work or mental health. They don’t do anything about bullying
