?t's terrible education wise as the teachers are not experienced. Children are bullied and ignored by racist teachers. I highly recommend you NOT to take your child there as they will come back home with stress and not learning anything. The children that I know have lost self confidence and hate school now.

BRO IM GETTING BULLIED BY STUDENTS TAHT ATTENED THIS SCHOOL
April 2022 by stephanie smith
My son goes to this school. They dish out detentions like sweets and because the students do the detention on the same day. The teachers don't need to have a reason to do so. If one teacher has a bad day and feels like everyone is being rude...guess what detentions for all. On a few of occasions I've had to call the school to discuss reasons for detention. It's like they don't talk to the students or hear them out. They practice a form of punishment that doesn't happen in life. Even a criminal has their day in court. They threaten detentions with everything they deem fit, resulting in children getting a detention for every small thing. I think they're playing a dangerous game that could result in bullying by teachers. Simple solutions are thrown one side for the quick fix of detentions. One particular teacher was rude to my son and when i spoke to her she wanted to argue back and forth with me like school children. Disgusting behaviour from teachers who claim they care for the teenagers.I can say I absolutely DON'T recommend this school. For there treatment of my son and me. Don't send your teens here. Consider this your warning.You maybe thinking that my child is a problem child. I assure you he's not. Every single teacher had nothing but praises at his parents evening. So yes! In the same sentence they are saying he's polite and kind and want to parade my son at open evening and give him responsibilities like hall monitor but also rude and skips lessons. Take from this what you will.

I went there a couple years ago and I am still appalled by my experience as a year 12 student.I explained to them that I was retaking my first year because I was bullied at my last school, which led me to have severe social anxiety. This made it very difficult for me to feel comfortable during lessons.My mum also got very sick during this period, which just made things worse for me. I talked about this with the head and received a lot of support at first, but his words never translated into actions.There is one particular person that I must mention as I find her behaviour unacceptable: Their sociology teacher. As great and charismatic as she was, she was also very forceful and would put me in really distressing situations on purpose, as she seemed to think my social anxiety would disappear if she forced me to talk in front of my peers during her lessons. It didn't matter that my mind was blank, my face red, my eyes watery and at the brink of a panic attack-- she would not let me go back to my desk until I said something, so the amount of times I cried silently at the back of her class was innumerable. She was aware of my condition as I had already told the head about how her actions made it very hard for me to learn in class or get any points for participation. I even tried to talk to her, but she was very intimidating and wouldn't let me explain myself. This affected my grades and my self esteem massively. She just didn't care, so eventually I stopped going to her lessons and instead of reaching out she dropped me out of sociology without talking to me first. I feel for anyone who has her. She could be very rude and didn't seem to understand that not everyone learns her way. This situation, mixed with my mum's poor heath and my own mental health became too overwhelming, so I ended up dropping out.

This school is a fantastic school where the teachers care passionately about their students. The pastoral care is really good and the students are supported to do exceptionally well. Academically the school supports each student to improve on their own pathway. They understand that not everyone has access to a quiet place to study and they also put on great and inclusive summer and winter shows. The art department is creative, absorbing and fun. The science, maths and English and languages are also excellent plus they have strong music, drama, pe and dance department. The sixth form is one of the best in Croydon. Do not write this school off.

This school was the worst thing to ever happen to me. Biggest cause of stress and anxiety I've ever had. There's like only 3 teachers here who actually care about there job. Go to this school if you want a faulty education and depression.

Went there year's ago not a good school bullying never dealt with and you got in trouble for standing up for your self and teachers could have done with further training with handling children with special needs.
