## Recent parent reviews

- **1/5** — Students deserve better than this place.: A disappointing school that blames its failures on the children. Poor education provided as Teachers get no support from the leadership team to be able to provide the children a excptable education so leave. Your child will not gain experiences and be given any opportunities from this school. Expects standards from students but leadership seem to think they do not have to uphold any them selves. When applying for secondary schools please do your best to avoid you child having to go to this one. … *(Jan 2025)*
- **5/5** — i loov school: this school is great it has so many possibilities for young children 😍😍😍 *(Dec 2024)*
- **1/5** — Abysmal school steer clear: This school is absolutely appalling. If I could put 0 stars I would. There seems to be a bully mentality towards students and they think it is perfectly fine to put a child in after school detention for being clocked on a system for being late. The same system may I add that messages me after dropping my child at school to tell me that my child is absent. They do not even know if a child is on site and I am having to trust my child's welfare with them. They can't keep staff that also allows my c… *(Dec 2024)*
- **1/5** — I'm a student please don't send your kids here I'm being serious: Wish I could give 0 I hate this school all the bad reviews are true still as this September 2024 *(Sep 2024)*
- **1/5** — My experince from 2019-2024: Really awful, the education is terrible and the food there is just straight goop *(Jun 2024)*
- **1/5** — Avoid this school: Terrible discipline. Haemorrhaging staff. Pupil welfare is a joke. Corrupt trust that fails ofsted to gain funding for other schools in the group *(Jan 2024)*
- **1/5** — This awfull school: This school is so bad there is like 10 cover lessons a week and also half of the staff members left at the end of the year awful and also barley any SLT members *(Dec 2023)*
- **1/5** — I felt my child was not safe in this environment.: I removed my daughter from this school early this year. *(Dec 2023)*
- **2/5** — Would not recommend: I am an ex-student, graduating in 2023 from the sixth form. Within the sixth form, my experience was generally more positive than at the secondary school. The sixth form is modern, and has sufficient facilities. There was issues with space especially when I moved up to Y13, which is understandable because there were a greater number of Y12s joining this year. My biggest complaint is guidance, which to be fair I put down to the multiple changes in headteacher during just the 2022/2023 academic ye… *(Sep 2023)*
- **1/5** — The staff don’t care about your mental health and well-being: A lot of staff at this school don’t care about the students. The staff don’t bother to tackle racist, homophobic and misogynistic behaviour and when they do, they don’t do it very well or they blame people who are innocent. When a student refuses to go to lesson, they just put them into the bic (isolation) and give them an after school detention instead of finding out why they don’t want to go to lesson. They also don’t care if you’re being bullied. A few people I know have been bullied and the … *(May 2023)*
