Personally I'm as student at CDS people that don't attend the school always criticise but really most teachers do their best to help the students. And some say the school is like a prison, I don't agree because the bag checks are so students eat healthy instead of devouring chocolate. To be honest the school food is actually pretty good i admit some of the food I wouldn't go near. But that's my personal opinion.

Terrible School My daughter gets 1 hour detention for having a green pen. I've told her not to do this and told the Shool they have gone to far just found out male teachers are searching female students there person and there blazers inside pockets it like a prison they not just punishing students and parents also we received text say please be careful student being snatched outside another school but OK to allow them walk home in the dark. Student safety really.

Wish I'd never gone to this school, The 'senior management' are any teachers who lasted longer than 5 years, There's some real stuck up old hags working here who march about holding their radios in their grandma's clothing carting 50 kids up to the hub to be shouted at for something Bag searches are dehuminising while the ones who bring drugs in now hide it elsewhere while the other students suffer. This school went to the dogs a while back then the last decent headmaster was driven into the ground I've been told many times that they were planning to close the school if so many prisoners didn't need to be kept there I hope in the future education is run on learning other than pupils being nothing but a number waiting for the government to make their money back on. This place used to be good, teachers weren't expected to teach more kids for less wages (that's why alot move to better places) The language department is a joke every kid being forced to be there every french teacher was a borderline pedophile and left after a year I'm supprised they still force kids to do subjects they have no intrest in There wasn't even an option of a different language they force classes full of children to sit there and learn French when really its a lesson to mess around and drive the teacher loopy

Was moved from this school due to the lack of support from teachers. I have encountered teachers that have witnessed an event of bullying (and there is a lot) and these teachers have not intervened despite knowing the situation. There are lots of fist-fights that I witnessed before I obviously left the place due to the sense that the safety of other students is breached by the lack of intervention.

I honestly wouldn't bother with this school. If you're currently looking for a place for your child to go and you are stuck. Don't be. All of the good teachers are leaving and going to St. Georges so the only good bit about it will soon be gone. The headteacher runs away from problems and leaves the deputy to deal with it and he doesn't interact with pupils in a polite manner either. A smile in his direction will be greeted with nothing, or if you're lucky, a grunt. If you want some genuinly good teachers, head to St. Georges or if that isn't right for you, keep looking because I guarantee somewhere else will be better. Frankly, prison seems more inviting, at least the food would be half decent.
