Reviews
This school has the culture of a prison from what I have seen. Some of the admin staff are just awful, and the same goes for a number of the teachers. But what do I know about these things? Well, my three children went there for a few years, before they mercifully left, and I have been a tutor all my life, so I have considerable experience of what makes a good or bad school, and you only have to look at the missives from the head teacher to see the pretentious nature of this place - they are very very good at marketing themselves, and their building looks just great, but the reality inside that building is quite the opposite. Beware this school.
My daughter is in year 7 and absolutely loves the school. The teachers are focused and dedicated, discipline is very good and it's obvious the management always strives to improve. An excellent school and would recommend highly!
The problem with these reviews are that they will have been written my disgruntled students or parents. There will always be someone with a grudge. What is not apparent from reading these reviews is what the school is actually like.
I have found it to be a very good school. Like all institutions, there are some things that are not perfect, but what is perfect is the management's determination to provide a first class education to a wide and varied school population. The facilities are second to none and the teachers are dedicated and hard working.
Nothing is perfect, but the school strives for excellence. What else can you ask for in an education?
As free education goes in the western world, this is a pretty average and decent educational establishment with a wide variety of subjects intertwined with casual British propaganda, after school clubs and during school bullying. Like most free education, there is room to improve and it holds no ground compared to establishments such as Montessori, but it's also better than most offered around the world.
This has always been a good school that allowed pupils from all levels of society to study as well as learn about each other.
I attended here 1970 to 1976 the son of a Diplomat fresh from Africa and had classmates like Hillary Ben, Jim Dales Daughter as well as children from poorer families
