Criticism and Concerns
Several reviewers have expressed negative experiences and concerns about the school. One reviewer, T. Shaw, alleged that the school discriminates against certain children, mentioning an instance where their child's work was compared to another child to make them look stupid. Additionally, the reviewer's child sustained an injury above their eye, resulting in multiple operations and stitches, but did not receive an apology from the head teacher.
Another reviewer, Vicky Reeves, stated that the school is "terrible" for children with special needs, including those who are adopted or have ADHD. This suggests that the school may not be adequately equipped to support children with extra needs.
Mixed Opinion
On the other hand, one reviewer, Aurora Massey, who attends the school, expressed a lukewarm opinion, stating that they "can't say I love it" and that not many kids like their schools. This suggests that the school may not be a universally popular or loved institution.
Praise
David Tammy Perkinks Tait, however, had a very positive experience with the school, mentioning that two of their ex-partners' sons attend the school and thinks it's a "very good school".
