Pros

NOTHING but racism and favouritism towards 🤍

Cons

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! Full of racism, which comes from all the teachers and students, my cousins study’s here, the racism she gets it’s unbelievable, all the teachers have the mentality from 1700’s racism they’ve never seen brown children in their life, basically the teachers are EDL groups! They differentiate children from their skin color, so blacks at the back, brown in middle and whites ofc at the front 👏 I’m concerned to what OFTSED do when they visit or are they just another EDL group! Absolutely sickening 🤢 in this generation and era and there’s schools hiring staff like that, absolutely unacceptable! Plus teachers calling the brown children names and embarrassing them in front of everyone is absolutely disgusting! I really am praying for this school to close down! And the parents that belong to the EDL groups you are more than welcome to join this school you will fit in with their disgusting illeterate mentally!!!!!!!!!!!

Pros

Great staff, supportive SLT, reasonable timetable, brilliant organisation throughout COVID.

Cons

Sadly, a minority of the older KS3 & KS4 students have no purpose for learning which results in their disrespect for staff and disruption of learning for the remainder. With 30+ in some classes no one is achieving anything. Despite good bhvr policy, class management and SLT support, it became for me, a daily dread.
