## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — WORST school in Cheltenham: Horrible school,didn't do anything when my child got bullied and blamed it on me for them not wanting to go to their school,even got a family support worker involved when none of us needed it and then wonder why I took my child out of there,horrible staff,horrible place in general,would NOT recommend sending your children there unless you like being out to blame for anything negative to do with their school that affects your child *(Oct 2025)*
- **2/5** — The learning itself is decent but…: The food is good, and the education it’s self isn’t bad but the Teachers do not care about bullying and won’t resolve it, they’ll assume something straight away with no context given to them if you were to report something, and teachers pick on you.

The workers in the school have a favourite student so they back that student up whenever they are in the wrong situation and don’t get any punishment for it (detentions ect.) You Get … *(Dec 2024)*

- **5/5** — Prefect badge: Mr Kava can I have a prefect badge please *(Jun 2022)*
- **3/5** — 50/50: Whilst some teachers are kind hearted and understanding, some are not. Students don't get a fair chance in explaining their side of the issue when they're accused of something. For example , it's always the one who crys or runs to the teachers who gets believed. The education is taught good in most subjects, English, maths, science and religion lessons are well put together , some others are lacking though and just get us to copy texts the whole lesson , and occasionally do a task, rarely. In my… *(Mar 2022)*
- **4/5** — It’s ok: Well the teachers there are extremely supportive and the education is sooo good but the students are really bad they do drugs and weed and they swear a lot *(May 2021)*
