Parkside Community College

Would not recommend school as their are many issues such as lots of kids vaping, and strict rules.

There is bot enough staff or equipment but overall there is a very good atmosphere and most staff members are lovely :)

Ok, my child was at Parkside for secondary and 6th and I was a governor there. I am afraid I do not have good things to say. First. As an academy, they had a lot of non-qualified teachers. Way too many. Some teachers were fantastic but more often than not your child will be taught by stressed out, non-qualified people and supply teachers. There’s no consistency. If they have any special need, forget any support: they will not get it. Staff move on all the time, and when United Learning took over it got 10 times worse. Education isn’t a commodity people! I would put my kid elsewhere if I were you. Also a huge drug problem there which everybody knows about and does nothing about - given the police station is 100 feet away, it’s ridiculous.

A great school. Nothing negative to share. A privilege to attend. Dynamic & motivated staff. Positive atmosphere also. Interesting mix of students. Good range of after school clubs.

Teacher was called a nonce, food is ok once saw a turd on the toilet floors.

Nice teachers nothing bad to say except the toilets are grim

its ok decent school not to bad tbf
