Brixham College

Im still a student at the school and i am struggling with my mental health and i was talking to one of the pastoral leads about it for about 7 months now and i just wanted to get him a gift because hes helped me a lot this year and now im not allowed to speak to him again. He literally saved my life and now that i cant speak to him my life is turning terrible again. I think this school should allow you to talk to anyone you feel comfortable to!

Brixham college is by far one of the worst school i have seen,the toilets are minging and they lock them while lessons take place only being open in tutorial,period 3 and breaks in break there is no toilets avalible in the girls because every break they are in there vaping and when you ask to go in lessons you have to have a medical pass (a doctor telling the school that you can go to the toilet) or a toilet pass in period 3 otherwise you can't go to the toilet. Food is a complete rip of it's so expensive and the hygiene is vile and i have found hair in my food before and i think it's just vile and it's so bad.

It's a really bad school. I wouldn't recommend it at all. Staff are more worried about uniform than the students mental/ physical wellbeing. The vice principal physically pulled my skirt down after she stated 'its too short.' Another member of staff looks up girls skirts. The school needs improving in all areas.
The OFSTED report says it all. The principal isn't isn't fit to be incharge of a school. The staff and behaviour management is awful. The learning side of it is really bad. Several people I know got physically and sexually assaulted by another student who didn't experience any form of consequence as it was down to 'autism'. The school honestly needs improving. Wouldn't recommend at all. Your child isn't safe there. Toilets are locked. You're not allowed to go to the toilet at all or have a drink in class. You're not allowed to be sent home even if you're really ill.

Glynn Read (bus driver)took a fascination with my son,dragging him off a school bus that he wasnt even driving,to abuse my innocent child infront of hundreds of students. The school complaints process is a much use a handbrake in a canoe. It used to be a great school,but there is something very "off" which is an underlying issue. Something bad will happen very soon,yet they choose to ignore it.

Brixham collegeis one of the worst school don't recommend the food is vile finding hairs and people touching it and putting it back down .The toilets are horrendous as they lock the toilet during lesson time ,student have to line up to get to the toilet and there only 1 digesting bathroom there .The teacher are just as bad as they send u straight to pip .I think it is one of worst school out there 100% taking my children out of the school .

Absolute rubbish school ran like their training the Hitler youth no wonder the children have zero respect for the place. Children given pip for wearing coats in class because the heating is awful yet teachers are sat there with their coats on keeping warm. Bullying is a big problem here funny how they have a zero tolerance policy on bullying yet it's so rife. Theres not much respect for the students here I believe that's why there's not too much respect back.

This school is the worst by far, do not send your SEN children here

As I’ve gotten older and wiser since leaving Brixham College, I realised a few things looking back. This school does not care about your well-being, only your grades. They emphasise good grades to stat pad how terrible the rest of the school is. Let’s not forget the tragic suicide of a student in 2013 which was completely preventable but alas the higher management failed the poor girl. Getting bullied means literally nothing to these people, especially those teachers who have their favourite students who in their eyes can do no wrong and thus they don’t hold them accountable for how they treat other students. Some of the teachers that have been hired here have provably had some rather questionable conduct towards students (you know who you are.) Reading recent reviews it doesn’t surprise me that this school hasn’t changed since I was there, and it’ll probably stay that way indefinitely.

Brixham college is a disgrace
Bullying happens frequently the teachers aren’t mindful and there are no policies in place whatsoever
Terrible school

one of my teachers literally told my class that she wasn’t qualified to be teaching our class and proceeded to say she forgot stuff so we had to do it later ?! whattt anyway also student “support” is bad barely support and the reception staff are so rude. i’ve only met like two students how aren’t bullies, the bus is HORRENDOUS you don’t understand the amount of things thrown and actual fights i’ve witnessed. the food is bad and too expensive and overall don’t go here , don’t waste your time :)

there’s rats running around the school and one time a monkey escaped from the zoo and came to the school, the teachers didn’t care and told the monkey to punch a kid. this school is very bad, when i told student support i was getting bullied they cut off my thumb with a bread knife, then they stabbed me in the eyes with a school pen. yesterday i fell on the concrete, the teacher jumped on me and kicked my head. when we were doing cooking classes, the teacher put my face on a frying pan, i nearly died that day…

Leaving this school was the best decision that I've ever made. Not sure if things have changed since then, but my time there was HELL! I got betrayed big time by a group of girls I thought were my friends. I was bullied every single day for months to the point I was diagnosed with stress induced migraines, on top of the anxiety that I have struggled with my entire life. What did the school do about this.....NOTHING. Student "support" (if you can even call it that!) had the rudest receptionist I've ever met who constantly turned away students no matter how upset they were. They couldn't care less when I broke down and told them that I didn't want to be alive anymore due to the daily torment from those bullies. Their whole "zero tolerance" to bullying is a load of crap!
I DO NOT recommend this place at all!

Don’t come here back in 2013 a young girl killed herself due to bullying and the school did nothing about the bullying. Don’t come here unless you want to be bullied to suicide. It’s also like jail. I don’t recommend it and I would advise you to pick a different school to avoid conflict, suicide and bullying and also bad teachers
