"Mixed experience, some great staff, some challenges"

We have been at Great Sankey High School for a year now and have had a mixed experience. Some of the staff are fantastic and really care about the children, but we have also had some challenges with bullying and organisation. Overall, I think the school has a lot of potential but needs to work on these issues.

My child joined Great Sankey High School this year and has already joined the Duke of Edinburgh expedition team. The school's focus on teamwork and community is fantastic and I'm so impressed with the range of extracurricular activities they offer.
