"this school is alright but you have to be polite and respectful"

the sencos are good and the inclusion is best place for someone that struggles and has a EHCP the tas are good

But it is really strict on homework and their are quite a few bullies and they do nothing about it the food is rancid and over priced i cant eat dairy and eggs and every single day ive been eating just pasta so if you have diarty reequipments don't eat the food i used to not eat since i couldn't eat anything very strict

"Overall pretty good but overly strict on homework"

Absolutely great teaching, facilities and opportunities but they are so strict on homework and i remember being in year 7 and trying so hard to complete all my homework but one time i forgot it and i was really told off about it and made me scared to go back to that lesson. They have alot of school trips to amazing places for example paris, berlin, barcelona, zambia and the austria ski trip which i went on twice and enjoyed it a lot. They also offer a wide range. One thing i would not recommend is the sixth form as the facilities are very limited and it feels very crowed as well as not naming names but a couple of the sixth form leaders are very invasive and find it very hard to accept they are wrong, they also set you a detention if you don’t go to form/mentor and i don’t think it’s really necessary at that age.

Soulless, corporate and sterile. Some teachers good, culture terrible. My kids didn’t enjoy it and I can see why

"Hallway trouble "

I find this school a very good learning environment but the pushing and shoving is horrible and for a younger student I just find extremely worried and scared the whole time whenever I'm in the halls and corridors traveling to class
