Reviews
I would have always given Pontville 5 stars up until January 2020 due to a change in headteacher. I have lived residential here for about 5 years and had so much help emotionally from residential staff and the head of care. Pontville had an amazing head teacher who went above and beyond to support me every day, since she left and a new head started I have seen a huge negative change to a lot in the last few months. I feel like the decisions now made at a management level are not supportive to the young people. I am disappointed as over the last 5 years I have came so far with the support of Pontville but now in the last few months I have watched everything deteriorate and I personally think that it is no longer a positive and happy place to be/ live.
I’m Alfie. I would have given the school 5 stars until the new headteacher, since then it’s been going downhill.
I am not at all surprised to read reviews about the school's drop in standards under this current Head Teacher and am not surprised to read the below review from someone who suffered severe mental health problems either.
UPDATED: 2 Years ago I posted this as 5 stars, and while I still feel the majority of the place is, the key stage 5 provision is not suitable for a special needs environment. I have posted a review on the 16-19 centre in Skelmersdale separately.
The Pontville main site at ormskirk is a brilliant place and is the best place for purpose. But the Skelmersdale site (KS5) is the complete opposite.
However, Sadly my journey at pontville was ruined in my final two years by putting up with the awfully filthy, dirty, dusty 16-19 centre in Skelmersdale, which also had absolutely no natural lighting whatsoever. This constantly triggered my migraines and the staff where not interested.
