- **1/5** — Terrible school, do not go: Absolutely the worst school I’ve been to, left it early. This school doesn’t care about your feelings, your wellbeing and mental health the slightest. There was a time when I had a panic attack and they just locked me in a room, refused to let me out or give me help. Also, if your child has disabilities or requires SEN, do not send them to this school. From what I’ve seen they treat/help children that have disabilities so terribly. Their staff is also so terrible and disrespectful. Especially th… *(Apr 2025)*
- **1/5** — There are better schools to go to: This school doesn't care about the wellbeing of their students. Most teachers aren't good at what they do, usually leaving within a few months. Honestly seems like most of them have no passion for teaching and are just there for the pay. There is an abundance of drug abuse from some students. Vaping, icebergs, etc. Nasty environment. Don't send your children here, especially if they have SENs. *(Mar 2025)*
- **1/5** — current student: my experience in this school has had to be the worst experience i could ever imagine, i have a good circle of friends but yet i consistently get bullied by others in the school, me and my mum have reported it several times and still have been told “it’s not a priority” or “it’s their word against yours” i am unbelievably SICK of the way the some students and teachers may i add treat the kids at corby technical school. if you want your children to have a good happy experience at secondary school … *(Mar 2025)*
- **5/5** — best school ever: This school is single handily the best school to every graze this space rock that we call home. This school give outstanding support to the SEN students the teachers are warm and welcoming to the new year sevens, my son has recently left the school with incomprehensive grades only eights and above if I say so myself I'm EXTREMELY proud of my boy. *(Sep 2024)*
- **1/5** — Crazy school: Crazy students and school has no control over them. Behaviour for learning is dire. The big O is going to eat them alive in next inspection. Teaching impossible due to poorly behaved students. Shocking attitudes and behaviour at all times. T&L impossible due to this. *(Jun 2024)*
- **1/5** — Corby technical school is a bad school: Do not send your kids to corby technical school!! The teachers are awful, and simply dont care about any of the students and only ‘care’ when it makes them look good. And the students arent any better either, they are big bullies extremely homophobic and racist etc. when i was in year 7 i was getting bullied by my year, and the older years. My mum phoned the school and they did absolutely nothing and didnt care about me being bullied, they even sat me next to one of the girls who was bullying me… *(Apr 2024)*
- **1/5** — The headteacher of cts 2023: Worst school ive ever been to, i came from a private school and moving to corby technical school was a downgrade so i moved back to my priv school. The head teacher of cts is unapproachable and rude to her students, you can never talk to her or ask her for help, she always makes her students fear her. *(Jan 2024)*
- **1/5** — Bad for Sen: The Send support is non existent, was told that as they get older they get less not more. Nothing to fo with a child's needs. Made to feel like I had the problem when asked for help with my daughter. Not an inclusive school as they state on their website. If you have a child with SEN or you sydpect SEN look elsewhere. *(Oct 2023)*
- **1/5** — It sucks: Teachers suck especially mr lee and mr canchelo~ he said that he will put me on a report something that only happens to bad people with loads of negatives and he said if i get one negative i will go on report and its stupid they have behaviour pushes every week and they do nothing to help anything with our learning it just sucks as a school *(Apr 2023)*
- **1/5** — DONT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE!: The school’s teachers are disgusting, though some are nice, MANY of the others have little to no respect to the students and clearly don’t care about a students mental health or disabilities. The students are even worst than the teachers, as they can get away with anything, they LOVE to bully (be racist, homophobic, anything you can think of). I’m genuinely horrified for my sister who is starting year 7 next year at CTS. I know if she gets bullied, teachers and staff will have no respect and wil… *(Oct 2022)*
