- **1/5** — Absolutely disgusting place!!: My daughter attended this school, I absolutely do not suggest it!!! I have had to move her due to multiple counts of bullying with no action taken by safeguarding, members of staff or anyone. This school is very poor with children’s mental health and it is absolutely unacceptable. I do not recommend this school on any regards. No kid is safe here. *(Dec 2024)*
- **1/5** — If you care enough about your children DO NOT send them here!!: My experience at this school was so horrific i left at the very start of year 11 after almost 5 years of abuse. i was bullied constantly and they claimed to not tolerate any sort of bullying but whenever i reported anything nothing was done. I had people talking about me on social media, being kicked in the lunch line and being told i was going to be raped by a few boys. I reported that and they said they would get police and parents involved. They did nothing. This school is an actual disgrace.… *(Nov 2024)*
- **1/5** — GO TO WYE-DEAN: got told off when i reported someone for bullying. Apparently a teacher is more important then deputy head and i got told off after he did NOTHING. They removed cookies and cakes at break and there is literally child abuse in this school. My head of year told all of the dinner ladies to not serve us at break because people were talking in assembly. Teachers let us out late and WE are the ones getting told off. New rules are terrible. School ruined me, i now have mental health problems. Wish i we… *(Oct 2024)*
- **1/5** — Awful place: Terrible school especially with new headteacher who puts my friend into isolation all day for having an infected piercing she can’t take out. She cannot even properly revise or learn in lessons with teachers for her exams next year. School cares more about attendance/uniform/appearance than the mental health and well-being of pupils. They’d rather you kill yourself than come into school with a skirt 10cm above your knee. Don’t send your kids here unless you want them to become a shell of themsel… *(Oct 2024)*
- **1/5** — Suspension over white socks: Very bad, My daughter has been suspended for wearing ‘White socks’ while in her school uniform. *(Sep 2024)*
- **3/5** — Conduct card: This teacher gave a conduct point for running around out side *(Sep 2024)*
- **1/5** — Caldicot school: A place where staff bully kids and get away with it *(Jun 2024)*
- **1/5** — physical and mental abuse: this school is terrible.There was a TA that physically abused a pupil and then offered another student money to hurt the said student if you want your kid to have a chance at getting physically abused send them to this school thank you for reading. *(Nov 2023)*
- **2/5** — Horrible: Not good at all. Teachers that give detentions for sneezing and safeguarding that won't help someone who got beat up and even blamed the parent on the bruising on them. Absolutely terrible. There are a few good teachers but they leave because they feel embarrassed to be in that school. *(Jun 2023)*
- **1/5** — CaldiHell: Corrupted hell hole that has abandoned the simple ambition for education, instead focusing on the upbringing of future psychopaths through its appeasement based behavioural policy. Relentless fights, shutters on the bathrooms and some TA's dog running around. If you want your child to go to a school that uses grants from the local authority that are intended to support the school community during the cost of living crisis, for the personal benefit of the management personal then this is the plac… *(May 2023)*
