Don't get me wrong, there are some amazing teachers however everyone from the SLT team have never once done any good for me. I am a high\/average achieving student yet i am made to feel awful as im not achieving grade 9's. This school has no regards for mental health, i know many people who have been turned away when they have asked for help. When i suffered badly from anaemia, i was turned away from the medical room.
