- **1/5** — miss mead: miss mead is more worried about the reputation on “her school” than the children’s wellbeing and safeguarding. she bosses all the teachers about and tells them to sort out the students that are ruining the school’s reputation. if the teachers fail to do so, then she will kick them out and punish the children to an extreme. no sympathy for any children, if they are struggling and making the school look bad, she will just suspend them instead of provide them with help and support. she never has a … *(Mar 2025)*
- **1/5** — Appalling school: Terrible school, teachers treat kids with special needs as if they are royalty, teachers cannot communicate and always look to start debates with students, And the playgrounds are just empty concrete fields with a few bins, food is overpriced. Student councils asked the school for more benches to be added over the half-term, but instead they added TVs in hallways that aren't even turned on half the time The teachers try to brag saying it's the best school in Essex. The school is just a dumping g… *(Dec 2024)*
- **1/5** — Poor communication and student welfare: Absolutely poor communication, well actually no communication. They care much more about talking about their grades than the welfare of their children. Child joined 6th Form from another school wasn’t finding the transition easy so called up and was told someone would call back. Took 3 further phone calls to finally get a member of team to bother to call back. Promised would speak to child, took a further few days, still no resolution. Only option to leave school, best decision ever! Called scho… *(Sep 2024)*

- **1/5** — Shocking, Terrible, Awful School!: Absolutely awful school, DO NOT recommend anyone to go here. Teachers are terrible, always making mistakes and getting things wrong. They have no support for Mental well being. Their pastoral team are shocking. Their teachers are so Boarding school vibe, they don't have a clue how to communicate to their students, and seems like they don't update their training either. Shocking school, terrible, appalling! *(Dec 2023)*
- **1/5** — moulsahm makes me depressed: this school is so awful if i could rate it 0 star i would. do not send your children here. they are not good with dealing with special needs children and staff are so rude to students although a few teachers are very kind. the only good thing i remember about this school is the chicken and cookies other than that it’s shit. at wet breaks your not aloud inside and must stand under the outdoor corridors, they do not care one bit about your well being and mental health they care more about the leng… *(Jul 2023)*
- **1/5** — A draining school without real standards: Moulsham high school is a school that tries to maintain this fake persona of being perfect but as soon as you see behind the curtain of what’s actually going on, you’d be horrified. No staff cares about your mental health, students get treated like there baby’s and spoken to like they’re stupid, the playgrounds aren’t even playgrounds it’s just a patch of concrete the school thought was good enough to even call a playground. I’m fed up if the way the school deals with hate and discrimination asw… *(Apr 2023)*
- **1/5** — terrible, please don’t come here😰: your not allowed to have fun on snow days. some teacher knocked a snowman someone built. they have no knowledge of what fun is. I even got told to go to my lesson early. this is because they do not want anyone to enjoy life and have fun on rare snow days. And now, because of us not being able to touch the snow, the hallway floors are wet and the snow is slushy and basically ice. i don’t know what the point of sending us in was, there’s hardly anyone in my class as it is. *(Dec 2022)*
- **1/5** — Attendance over mental health: The school cares about your attendance more than you’re mental health, *(Oct 2022)*
