The extracurricular activities aren't organised properly and the teachers are incredibly disrespectful. I have been, and still am, bullied by girls at my school.

On the first day I had to go, the office didn't let me go because I didn't have a note from my teacher. No one told me I needed a note from my teacher?? I had a note from my mother, isn't that enough?? They REFUSED to let me leave to go somewhere to help with my MENTAL HEALTH which was getting WORST by the bullying of girls at school. The teachers let you STARVE if you don't have money or your lunch card and the cost of the food is WAY too high, plus, the food is disgusting. We aren't allowed the LEAST bit of freedom, like make up, nail painting, hair dying or wearing jewellry. As girls, a lot of people like to wear make up or dying their hair, so I think it's stupid that we can't express ourselves. If you have nail varnish or you wear fake nails to school, they FORCE you to cut them off. That's so stupid?! Along with that, they give whole year detentions if a few kids were messing about. Overall, this school is terrible and I regret coming here.","languageCode":"en"},"originalText":{"text":"This school is HORRIBLE.
