- **1/5** — Horrible don't go there: Horrible school don't send your kid there *(Mar 2025)*
- **5/5** — Good School: teachers are nice and not too strict and also because there are little ones in the primary we sometimes do activities with them *(Mar 2025)*
- **1/5** — Not right: On wednesday, a student found a maggot in their school dinner, and the salad bar constantly has bugs in because it is left out all day with the door open. Many teachers pick a favourite and only focus on that one student, while the others dont get the help they need. Overall this school is very bad *(May 2023)*
- **3/5** — Terrible school: I have gone to this school since I was 5 and never have I ever been treated so badly, primary school I had a pair of scissors thrown at me and today I had a bin threw in my face, horrible school horrible teachers and staff. Would never recommend!! *(Apr 2023)*
