Chesterton Community Sports College

Abuse I got abused bullied hit. Chesterton asked me if it was an accidental.kids hate school and all look very sick from drinking energy drinks. Teachers were mainly awful and were not caring or supportive and they would scream at you if you didn’t get a good grade. Popular cliques and lots of kissing happens at Chesterton . Food is ok but a bit dry and bland. Miss Moss was my head of house she tortured me and always tried to isolate me at lessons and make fun of me and scream at me. Sets, they never move anyone up except somebody they made an awful mistake with somebody and they were getting consistent 2s . People all seem to be trapped in hell. The worst part was the safeguarding when it comes to bullying they do not care. People were so mean and awful I had to change to a private school. Chesterton is a lie. Chesterton was just an awful grade focused environment.

i hate it the teachers are horrible kicked out of the school for fighting and the other person that fought me didnt even get a no thankyou dont go to this school.

I've got two kids who attended CCSC and they both thrived. The sports facilities are top-notch and the teachers are very supportive. However, I think the school could benefit from more parental engagement opportunities. Overall, a great school with some minor areas for improvement.

Someone I know has received over 200 above and beyond points and the only reward they received was the 100 abps event which includes free icecream; awards such as free gift cards, items and stationary that were promised for the higher milestones of the abps were not awarded as promised in the notices leaving them and other students that were promised prizes unhappy and unsatisfied (I myself included as I hadn’t received a single reward even though I had over 50 abps). This school doesn’t seem to provide the students with the rewards they deserve. However, the teachers in the school are very friendly and the quality of teaching is exceptional.

My opinion of this school is that most of the things they care about or show interest in is grades and where you stand academically.
They are not very understanding with SEN children.
When someone is getting bullied seem to only do something about it when its physical and don’t care if verbal bullying.

all they seem to show interest in is grades.
not very good for SEN children.
when a child reports being bullied not much is done about it.

I'm so impressed with the facilities and resources available to our daughter at Chesterton Community Sports College. The 'To Be The Best You Can Be' ethos really shines through and she's made great friends. The extracurricular options are brilliant too.

Our daughter has only been at CCSC for a few months but she's already started to excel in her chosen subjects. The 'Respect' theme for this term is something we've been discussing at home and I love that the school is instilling these values in her. The parental portal is also very useful for staying up-to-date.

They only care about students if they get good grades !

I am at long road now.

Chesterton had ups and downs. The teaching quality varied heavily from teacher to teacher, with some caring more about being powerful than teaching quality.

Mental health support is there but only if you are at breaking point. I received free therapy and a family worker, though the school told my parents and had a lot of 'you are year 11 deal with it' conversations with me when I described my abusive home. They did then get me a family worker as they agreed it was abusive.

GCSE options are limited and they will try to force your child to take a language for GCSE as they grt the IBAC And it makes chesterton look good.

The building is nice, lots of outdoor space but not great food options and they don't update the school website so holiday timings are confusing.

Hope this all helps.

The teachers don’t listen to you,and as for the learning support staff My friend got told to make sure the blade was clean when He used it. They let you smoke.treat you like your 3 and are okay with bullying. Never going to send my kids here

The only good things are the ipads but some of the teachers make you suffer

nice we get ipads and the extension’s pretty cool

Good school, very freindly teachers! Sometimes classrooms get loud and teachers give up, but a nice experience with lots of GCSE options!
