- **1/5** — THE WORST SCHOOL I EVER WENT!: Now i used to go to this school until I changed to a different one, then moved to a different area, the teachers sucked, like one time I was too full to finish my food and after lunch break when my teacher asked if I finished I said no, and what does she do? Literally grab my fricking arm and shout at me infront of the whole class, WHAT DID I EVEN DO? By the way, the pizza tasted bad its like they used frozen pizzas from a store. If you want your child to have a good time at school, this isn't t… *(Mar 2025)*
- **5/5** — very understanding school: I moved here in year 10, coming from an awful welsh school in ponty pool that had an insane problem with bullies. Perhaps its just my experience but I can confirm that this school has mended my damaged mental health. amazing education system and such great staff that you can befriend and learn from. the people are so kind and inclusive i have never once felt embarrassed or scared here, nor has my potential ever been doubted. maybe its just my opinion, but when you've come from a school as bad as… *(Nov 2024)*

- **1/5** — Ebbw Fawr needs to do something: A student named Christos Pappas thretened to bomp the school and was shouting slurs *(Oct 2023)*
- **1/5** — Ebbw Fawr honest review: Atrocious school, more than half of the toilets are closed but conveniently opened when governors and Estyn are about to do observations. Quality of education is inadequate and not much is done to help students struggling with work and the classes aren't based on ability but how much the teachers like you. Lunch queues are horrendous for Year 9, 10 and 11 pupils because they all share the same lunch time last year during exams some students with ALN statements weren't offered Chromebooks in scie… *(Oct 2023)*
- **1/5** — Ebbw fawr learning community: Your child will hate it. If your child's getting bullied or anything the teachers won't listen and won't do anything about it. The adults (teachers) only care about themselves and trying to be the best school in Wales but that's where their wrong because then they don't listen to the students, they couldn't give 2 sh!ts about how your children feel. They allowed a teacher to carry on teaching after he had started at many girls chests and been a pedofile. The teachers don't teach properly they ju… *(Nov 2022)*
- **3/5** — Ebbw fawr primary: The school is pretty good and helped me come out of my shell but the way they handle mean teachers isn't exactly the best. The students are kind but still some are rude. I got called a fag because I'm gay and another student said me and my friend were "friends with benefits" plus the incidents like a student breaking a teachers wedding ring , a child bringing a condom to school(a rumor but the kid said he did it) and a the same student brought a vape. But everything else is great ! The yards, pl… *(Nov 2022)*
- **4/5** — Very good school.: Good resources available, school didn’t have a very good reputation due to past head teachers but they handle bullying very well and teach you in a fun and informative way. Can sometimes be favourites but not with many teachers. *(Jun 2021)*
