Overall Experience
Many of the reviewers have had a negative experience with The Priory School, citing concerns about the level of support and care provided to students who require additional assistance. Specifically, there are concerns about bullying and aggression among staff members, leading to feelings of anxiety and fear among students.
Support and Care
The reviewers have criticized the school for not providing adequate support and care to students who need it most. One reviewer in particular mentioned that their son was manhandled by a staff member, leading to the decision to remove them from the school. This lack of proper care and consideration has resulted in a negative and unwelcoming environment for some students.
Leadership
Some reviewers have questioned the leadership of the school, suggesting that the headmaster is not taking adequate action to address the concerns of parents and students. This lack of effective leadership has contributed to the overall negative atmosphere at the school.
