- **1/5** — My experience: I dropped out of ash manor halfway through year seven due to lack of support and how overwhelming it is. This is NOT a school for nurodivergent people or people who struggle with mental health issues. They do NOT care. If you're parents and therapist/psychiatrist tell them what they need to do to make it more enjoyable for you, they ignore it and thrn go on to say you haven't told them how they can help. They are liars, all of them and I wish very badly that this school could be closed or under … *(Jun 2025)*
- **1/5** — Ash manor school: This school is so terrible I had to move my daughter schools because she was getting bullied every single day she is only 11 years old and had a-lot of random people coming up to her being horrible. Not to long ago a couple of teenagers broke into the school and Assaulted a young boy. Staff are rude to the children at the school and treat them like they’re older and don’t have feelings. *(Jun 2025)*

- **1/5** — DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE!!!: This is undoubtedly the worst school I have ever ever come across in my whole entire life. They give out punishment after punishment without even looking into things properly. They don't ever respond to emails, they don't care about anything the children have to say. The headteacher sits in her office sipping tea while another parent is at the office desk begging to see her after her daughter was being bullied so HORRIFICLY she attempted to take her own life. This school is outrageous and I can … *(Dec 2024)*
- **1/5** — 1-hour detention for forgetting her notebook.: My 11-year-old daughter received a 1-hour detention for forgetting her notebook. I fear for the safety of all the children at Ash Manor School. Education professionals believe that punishing a child is educating. I would like my daughter to attend a safe school. I would like someone to help me find a secondary school that respects the natural development of the child. *(Sep 2024)*
- **5/5** — Outstanding School: Fantastic school, both my children went to Ash Manor and left it with fantastic GCSE grades so I am a very happy parent. The Headteacher is 100% dedicated to the school and the teachers are brilliant. Outstanding school. *(Aug 2024)*
- **1/5** — This school is not good: Very disturbing and disappointing. The headteacher Ms Bailey is so rude and disrespectful. Some of them are nice teachers but mostly are very moody, unprofessional and rude. Worse school *(Jun 2024)*
