"Secondary school rules and activities for older kids"

Poor systems, padlocking doors in allowing kids to use the toilet, causing some to wet themselves or develop water infections some toilets are disgusting mainly disabled ones and water all over them and ‘no touch’ are they mental not allowing kids to have fun fair enough if they actually touch them inappropriately or they scream saying please don’t touch me or something but if they’re comfortable with it not allowing them to play and be kids, is this place setting them up for prison or torture? And let’s not start with the activities for the secondary half, the primary gets so much rewards non uniform days,class charts and lots more Opportunities and trips but they rarely get a single non uniform day since my child has been there there’s been 2. And primary has had like 10? Please have more activities for them and free trips they can attend.and meals are always hit or miss since the lines are always so long and the kids should be able to eat whole as a year group with their friends instead of zones .

My child came home with a bruises on her head beacuse she was beaten up inside the toilets. I am fuming! And also I told them my daughter was lactose intolerant but they added dairy into her food even after I told them she can't have dairy. Absolute disgrace

"HORRIBLE!!"

this schools a pile of wank i wouldn’t be going here if i was you you get your human rights took away from you, when girls are on their period they aren’t aloud to go and get forced to stay in lesson or it’s a hour detention if you leave to go to the toilets. They have now locked them up for these poor children and the staff don’t care about their children.
