The teaching staff were enthusiastic and encouraging. Some went the extra mile. If your child is respectful and attentive they will thrive at this school. *(Aug 2025)* - **5/5** — Caring and empathetic staff at bushey meads: The new pastoral member Mrs Cunningham is absolutely fantastic with emotionally supporting the children’s welfare at Bushey Meads she is very attentive has great empathy and is courteous and respectful to parents her work is much appreciated, my son had an issue at school and she has assured us as parents that he has the support when needed *(Jun 2025)* - **1/5** — Bullying: I am appalled at the lack of communication and help that my grandson received from this school, my grandson is being bullied after complaining they sat the culprit behind my grandson in a class, they have also given my daughter the wrong e.mail for the school governors three times. She has complained many times and had no response. Instead of dealing with the bully or expelling him my grandson is being forced to leave the school. It has affected him badly. There should be zero tolerance for bull… *(Sep 2024)* - **1/5** — Don’t take ur kid here: This school is shit don’t bring ur kid here *(Sep 2024)* - **1/5** — Don’t tackle bullying: Terrible school. The turnover of teachers is relentless. My youngest son is currently being bullied and the school has an ‘it’s no big deal’ attitude. Speaking with others there is a serious bullying problem at this school. My eldest son says some of his teachers have even outright said to the kids ‘we are leaving because of the state of the school’ we had high hopes for this school, but it’s been such a terrible experience *(Sep 2024)* - **1/5** — Awful school: From my experience, this is the worse school in Bushey. The attitude towards students is awful. Unprofessional and helpless. In 2023/24 GCSE students hardly saw a Maths teacher. One of the Maths teacher was giving a blessing to his class half of the lesson instead of teaching. Most of the time students had a cover teacher, who has no relation to Maths. Teachers can’t manage student’s behaviour. The head teacher is never involved. Never ever even consider this school *(Sep 2024)* - **1/5** — Be Warned!!: Absolutely terrible school! My child was beaten up twice within a year at that school. They endured bullying the entire time of year 7 & 8 but school decided it wasn’t bullying because it wasn’t the same pupils! The school lied repeatedly to our faces regarding SENCO matters. The principal does not engage at all with neither students or parents and will refuse to meet with parents, he is also principal to multiple schools in London and Hertfordshire. Be warned!! *(Apr 2024)* - **1/5** — Do Not recommended: I'm not saying this just because I don't like school, but generally i would not recommend this place to anyone, the staff just do not care about you, anyone could tell and not to mention the poor hygiene. *(Dec 2023)* - **2/5** — Bullying: I was severely bullied at this school and the staff members didn’t seem to care, no matter how many reports I made or statements I wrote. When someone finally seemed to care, the people who bullied me didn’t get punished as I had wished, instead they just got ‘spoken to about it’ and then a 1 hour detention after school. I still felt unsafe at the school because the people who bullied me continued to laugh at me and make me feel horrible about myself, I eventually had to stop going to school and… *(Aug 2023)* - **1/5** — reason the school should close: the school is the reason my mental heath is at its lowest the school dosent care about the students feeling its all about learning useless thing insted of life skills *(Jan 2023)* ## Other schools in Bushey - [Falconer School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bushey/falconer-school-7243) — 2.0/5 (9 reviews) - [Highwood Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bushey/highwood-primary-school-6900) — 1.7/5 (6 reviews) - [The Grange Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bushey/the-grange-academy-21265) — 2.5/5 (5 reviews) - [Queens' School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bushey/queens-school-12518) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Hartsbourne Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bushey/hartsbourne-primary-school-19324) — 4.7/5 (4 reviews) - [Immanuel College](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/bushey/immanuel-college-7225) — 4.5/5 (4 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
