Teachers still kept in touch and facilities are perfect. *(May 2022)* - **1/5** — Don't bother with jarrow school: Where the hell do you start about jarrow school. Well at the time of writing I'm a current student at the school and I have to say, if you want to put your child in jarrow school please don't. Jarrow school is nothing like they make it out to be. Shit teachers, shit students and an overall shit school. The teachers don't even try to contact the chaos around the school and when they do try it only results in problems escalating. Some teachers are also ridiculously strict handing out detentions if… *(Mar 2022)* - **2/5** — Shite: This school can only be good if you’re high. The male teachers are extremely sexist and only adhere to entertaining the boys. They rub the wrong way. The female teachers are quite a bit better, for the most part they’re welcoming and very friendly. I can only be glad the head teacher isn’t a man, god knows what it would be like. The homophobia is very prominent and if you’re gay you don’t have much of a chance of being liked. There’s way too many chavs. You walk through the halls and all you sme… *(Oct 2021)* - **1/5** — honesty from an english teacher: The school has went majorly downhill over the past five years. Students don’t have respect like they used to and the other staff are constantly pushing my buttons. As sad as it is to say i think i am losing my passion for teaching. The problems of the school are deeply rooted with the head teacher falling out of touch with all of the reasons she got the job. I’m sick of my job here and i am thinking about changing to go teach somewhere else, this school is beyond help this time. If you’d like a … *(Dec 2020)* - **1/5** — School that will act their the victim: Jarrow school is a horrible school, let me explain why. I won't say what year I am as to remind completely anonymous. How this school treats mental health is horrible myself and many others who have mental health problems are completely disregard for students they can praise and put on their front page. If your disabled you're kinda fucked don't expect to do anything for years. If your lgbtq+ prepared to be treated like shit from students and teachers especially if your trans. If your a student … *(Dec 2020)* ## Other schools in Jarrow - [St Matthew's Catholic Primary School, Jarrow](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/jarrow/st-matthews-catholic-primary-school-jarrow-22265) — 4.5/5 (4 reviews) - [St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, Jarrow](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/jarrow/st-josephs-catholic-primary-school-jarrow-21639) — 4.8/5 (3 reviews) - [St Bede's Catholic Primary School, Jarrow](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/jarrow/st-bedes-catholic-primary-school-jarrow-22064) — 4.7/5 (3 reviews) - [Jarrow Cross CofE Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/jarrow/jarrow-cross-cofe-primary-school-11171) — 4.6/5 (3 reviews) - [Dunn Street Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/jarrow/dunn-street-primary-school-23994) — 4.6/5 (3 reviews) - [Stanley's at Jarrow](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/jarrow/stanleys-at-jarrow-EY472497) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
