My daughter started the school in January. She tells me how happy she is there in comparison to her old school. Her tutor is lovely and has really helped her feel at home. The parent app they use keeps you well informed, showing me her attendance, reports and achievements as she gets them which I think is great. My daughter likes the teachers and feels that she is learning well from them.

Students can not provide an honest opinion as some teachers tell them off for telling the Truth. It would be a good idea if reviews were anonymous as this would get an honest opinion. However, most teachers are very kind and respectful to students and teach them well so they may succeed

This school is nothing that it claims to be. The staff act like it is a prison and hardly any of the teachers know how to control a class. Furthermore, there have been several instances when certain teachers have imposed their views on students. Like someone else said, many of the children who go to this school smoke weed (not only before and after school, but they have also done it during lunch). The staff make a huge deal out of little behaviour issues, such as interrupting a class, but they struggle, or at least have done in the past, to acknowledge the fact the kids, whom they are partly responsible for, have done drugs in school hours. Going back to teachers who don’t know how to control a class, I have often been in lessons where up to forty minutes have been wasted by the teacher waiting for everybody to settle down. This is not an issue with the students, but an issue with teachers who are incapable of telling a class to be quiet, and so they just sit there instead of getting on with teaching. I have often left these kinds of lessons knowing less that I did when I walked in.

I would give it 2/5 because the facilities are poor and the teachers are not always there if they are sick or something etc thats fine but most of the time they aren't there

My children was antisocial, but now, they enjoy going out. They are also motivated to study and are very disciplined. They have a strict uniform policy which ensures all students are presentable With the exception of a few, most teachers take advantage of the fact that there children, and give them unjustified punishments. The students aren't always given the oppertunities to defend themeselves, and sometimes, there are even class sanctions! Uneceptable. Not only are the students mistreated, but the supply teachers too! A cover teacher in that school was in tears because of the lack of respect in a class, but nothing changed. My child struggles with her classwork, and yet receives barely any help. They don't even notify parents early enough when theres a late day. My children wakes up 5am every morning, and leaves for school at 7:20 am. Then we were notified at 7:40 (or something around that time) that it was a shortened day. There was an incident where my child was wrongly accused of talking, and was taken away and scolded for a over 20 minutes. The teacher even had the ordacity to shout!
