Don't send your chlid there pls cause they will shout even if your chlid is a year 7 I do not wonder why people cry after they get home when your chlid is bullied they will do nothing about your chlid will come out of there in tears if they get bullied sorry for any judgement but its a really poor school

"beyond awful"

This school shows no care or commitment to help the children with extra needs ,pastoral support is very limited and unavailable when needed,Children are treated like prisoners
Girls can’t wear trousers and bits can’t wear smart shorts!!,teachers scream in children’s faces,Children which would be expelled are not yet children who wear their tie wrong are suspended !!
This school is awful and detrimental to our children’s mental health

"Awful school"

This school is beyond me I do not get how they expect children to act perfect, when all they do is shout at them adults shouting at children. The only positive is that they have good equipment such as Astro turf. Also if girls have fake tan on they lock them in a room as if they are prisoners. The food is disgusting my child showed me a picture of raw, yes raw chicken this is an absolute joke I can not believe they would serve this my beautiful child. His name is Leo Stevenson he is in year 8 and loves to read, and reading is an opportunity for him to excel and achieve later in his amazing career. Also Up the fucking blues BOSH .

"If you care about your child, don’t send them here"

Disorganised and poor. Discipline is non-existent and student behaviour can be intimidating. Staff seem soft and the students get away with a lot.
