They make out they are great but in fact they fall in line with every other school on the area, just see the comments left by other parents. We fought to try and get our child in with this school being the closest to our home. Our appeal was rejected by Hertfordshire Council (another load of rubbish) even with evidence of his vulnerabilities which has now left our son without a school. As they say, every cloud has a silver lining and to be h… *(May 2024)* - **1/5** — IF U WANT UR CHILDREN TO SUFFER GO TO BROXBOURNE SCHOOL: school is so shit. teachers are pedos and horrible. school hates people that are of color teachers follow BLACK STUDENTS. don’t send u children there if u want them to endure bullying from teachers and students. there was a fingernail in the food as well as a spider and hair food half rotting.. don’t teach bottom set shit school 2023 gave results so shit people didn’t get into there own six form DONT GO people can easily get in and out the school someone stick thrown in their ey *(Mar 2024)* - **1/5** — Terrible place: Former student here. I was bullied and harassed throughout the duration of the time i spent at The Broxbourne School. The school were practically no help at all. In my final few years there i was sexually harassed and assaulted by a student and the perpetrator got off nearly scott-free with a report and a slap on the wrist. Student well being is completely ignored. They just expect kids to pump out good grades and make them look good. There were only a few teachers who helped me in my time there… *(Nov 2023)* - **1/5** — A caring parent: Disgusting school. Teachers are bullies, the school cannot handle a child that does not fall in line with the stepford wives. Deny students of their basic human rights. Absolutely disgusted with the treatment of my child and 2 other relatives! Cannot even keep our children safe! *(Nov 2023)* - **3/5** — Honest opinion: If you want to do very well academic wise, Broxbourne is the place to be but they are bad at handling bullying and fighting and don't have their priorities straight, they only care about the scores But I will say the food is good and you will find your best mates there *(Jun 2023)* - **1/5** — Don’t send your child to The Broxbourne School.: •The teachers here are so bad its scary. •The bullying and violating is so bad here☠️☠️ •There’s a fight every week in every year group •People cuss out the new kid when they’re ugly •The kids here run wild and the teachers do nothing •The food gets worse by the day *(May 2023)* - **4/5** — Honest: The school handles bullying very poorly and most of the time just make it worse I know this because my friend has been picked on by this one boy repeatedly and they've spoken to him about it but he continues doing it and now all they do is tell him to stop but he doesn't listen *(May 2023)* - **1/5** — Stay Home: Don't go trust me. biggest mistake of my life *(Nov 2022)* - **2/5** — Not the best: only a couple of good teachers. SLT are awful. The whole school attitude is completely wrong and their priorities are wrong. They don’t care about the students health and wellbeing and happiness. They only care about academic performance. Learning support only help if you have an EHCP. The pressure that this school applies on to students is so damaging. If your child/teenager injures themself or has a health issue at school, no one cares and reception probably won’t contact you about it. Bullyin… *(Nov 2022)* ## Other schools in Broxbourne - [Broxbourne CofE Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/broxbourne/broxbourne-cofe-primary-school-7128) — 4.7/5 (4 reviews) - [Longlands Primary School and Nursery](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/broxbourne/longlands-primary-school-and-nursery-7051) — 4.6/5 (4 reviews) - [Wormley CofE Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/broxbourne/wormley-cofe-primary-school-7098) — 4.7/5 (3 reviews) - [Wormley Pre-school](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/broxbourne/wormley-pre-school-EY434778) - [Squiggles Pre School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/broxbourne/squiggles-pre-school-2555595) - [Squirrels Day Nursery](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/broxbourne/squirrels-day-nursery-404885) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
