This school doesn’t care about your mental health or if you’re struggling all they care about is STEAM and how there school is represented, like the appearance of their students like if they are wearing the right uniform, shoes, skirt, tie and if you are wearing jewellery this is an honest review of my experience they deal with things in the wrong way do better you freaks
I really enjoyed my time at Bourne I left recently and I was content there for the whole 5 years. Most of the teachers were great and the head Mrs Watkins tries to do what she feels is best for the school, even if the students don't always agree with that. I must admit that there was a huge focus on uniform, though I actually liked wearing it, and that the underneath of the tables were disgusting. I never came across any major instances of bullying. The food in the canteen was good. I can't speak about the behavioural system as I was one of the "good kids" and never got into trouble. However, when watching others disrupt the lesson I feel like sometimes they could have been dealt with more promptly instead of being given countless warnings etc. therefore majorly interrupting the lesson and what the teacher was trying to teach as they were focussing on the naughty kid, trying to calm them down. I especially noticed this when I was lower down in the school, perhaps the kids in question had become more mature by Yr 11, I don't know Some of the reviews on here by other students I feel are overly negative. I definitely enjoyed my time here and ask you to not disregard it completely
If you are a student needing support such as extra time or needing a reader in exams, then judging from my experience this is not the school for your children. The teachers tell you just before your exam that curtain things have changed and when you confront the teachers at parents evening, they shift the blame. Also if you are a student and have been bad then school put you in "isolation" which is where you have to face a wall in a very small area, which doesn't help in anyway and it just adds to the anxiety. I am a dyslexic student and have always been put down in a shameful way about it and the school didn't help at all. However some of the teachers at this school were amazing and adjusted to the students human right and went above and beund to help me and others, this is Mr Paige my English teacher and Mr Clarke my science teacher
I was at Bourne for year 7, 8 and part of year 9. There was some really good parts, and some not so good. The good: - A good number of incredible, supportive teachers particularly Burns, Harper and Jakob in the humanities department - Mr Harper in general - incredible teacher who made me love RE - A relatively low amount of bullying at least from my standpoint The bad: - Severely underfunded however this is not at all the school’s fault - Sometimes more than 30 people in a class, which meant teachers struggled to control all of us not their fault - Some rather unpleasant members of the school community who were not always dealt with, both in class and out due to an in theory very good behaviour system that wasn’t always implemented - A lot of certain lessons such as MFL and humanities were spent dealing with behaviour, which was not the fault of the teachers but incredibly iritating If you’re considering sending your child to Bourne, you should consider it may have some things to be improved on, but is in retrospect a good school which I enjoyed my time at.
Unlike the other rather bland reviews of this school, this is my take on it. Still at the school, one year left. Pros: + The majority of the staff members there are helpful, although like every school you have those who are not helpful. Even the most prestigious schools will have these staff members. Therefore this isn't included as a con. + It has a nice, helpful SEN department. Although sadly due to the lack of school funding they had to cut down on some staff, this got rid of some good and some bad. Although I do find that the SEN department now only consists of good staff members who are supportive, and know when to be strict. A nice balance of support and strictness there. + Just wanted to add in an additional one here; Mr Clarke is perhaps the best teacher there. He can deal with students and be nice at the same time, not liking to give out punishments but knowing when it's appropriate and what to give them out for. Keep up the good work! : Cons: Every school has its cons. : I'll write this as honestly as a student can, since it's bound to be a bias because I'm a student right? No. - The computers in that school are damaged, can be slow etc..etc. All of the normal maintenance problems for a school that won't turn into an academy. Of course you can blame the government as a factor in this, since they underpay schools. Additionally students can also be blamed since they damage the computers, even though they complain? I'm not one of those, you get what you give I guess. - The facilities there aren't the greatest. Refer to above point, it has its own separate one because I feel its important enough to earn that, it will not be included in this facility con.. Of course slightly due to the government and students again - The building is somewhat messy, the windows are a bit grubby and chewing gum is under nearly every table. Although, as previously stated; give what you get. Since this is primarily students fault for mistreating the facilities themselves. - The students. The teachers in my personal opinion, some of them are good. Ms Hudson. Teachers are not strict enough towards misbehaving students, discipline is low and attempting to bully people is quite high and how they treat eachother. Although of course like most bullies, you get used to their repetitive method of bullying. Overall Summary: A good school, has some minor things like every other school and some pretty big minor things. But out of other schools I would say the level of harassment isn't as high, and the quantity of things you learn is higher then other schools. Including their appropriately arranged groups.
I sent my children there and it was a nice little school with just over 800 kids. The school was very friendly but I do admit there was favoritism with the uniform.
It is an excuse for a school. Teachers are thieves, don't care about students academic record, all they care about is the uniform, it's like they get their months salary withdrawn if students don't have their top button up. Want your kids to suffer, get bullied, and mocked. Send them to the Bourne Commubity College. Where teachers drive a school bus full of kids like a maniac nearly causing a crash.
Just bad really. Was a student there wouldn't reconmend as teachers do not care and you can sense it when you walk into the class, they focus to much on the smart and academic students and not the ones that need help they just fail and no one cares.
They don’t care about anything except STEAM science tech engineering and maths and ‘rights respecting’. Don’t send your children here unless you want them to beg you to move schools a few years later
Very sad school im now moving into year 9 when i first joined i could not do history for some reason and now i cant because i was not in it for like a year Even tho not my fault i was not in it when they saying i cant go in it its very sad since it my best subject ;
