"Great "

This school appreciates its students and supports those who struggle. However as a student in the past there definitely is some changes needed to be made , some views are outdated and honestly some teachers need to go . The academics at this school are amazing but the drama department is quite lazy and doesn’t have the passion they should. This school is definitely a good one but there are some rude teachers. It’s without a doubt the best school in the area but the teachers sometimes promise students opportunities and don’t carry through with there words.

"Great Education but no respect for Students"

Honestly this school doesn't ever practice what they preach . There are some amazing teachers in the maths,languages and drama department but i can't say the same for the rest of the school . Teachers have been racist to students also the P.E department has no problem with fat shaming and sexism . For example Male's don't get the opportunity to do Dance and Only last year Female's where allowed to play Rugby . The School is so oblivious to mental well being that its dangerous . The academics in this school are probably the best in the area but i can not say the same for the way the student are treated .
