It seemed good at first. It has a headteacher with 30+ years of experience with children like me with complex needs anf has an alright location in north Bury, which is a reasonable distance to children in Greater Manchester and south Lancashire with nothing but rolling hills and sheep within vision (which is either a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you look at it.). I went for a visit to this location and the actual site itself was absolutely tiny and somehow they managed to keep children from Primary all the way up to Year 11 at the place, having to hold lessons in trailers because the space was so little but the children were actually really nice though I have to admit but the teachers seemed as though they lacked soul or humanity like they don't like they're job or something. I had a meeting there with my mother and all they talked about was just business jargon and how \"We'll get you in as soon as you can\" despite it taking TWO MONTHS to actually get anywhere with it. At the end of it, they phoned my mum saying \"We have a Sixth Form Centre we're going to put him in put him in because he's too smart for everyone else and your son can't go to the nice other building we have\" which was insulting because in terms of work, I was in the middle of year 10 and hadn't even done a single GCSE paper yet. So we went to this \"Sixth Form Centre\" in the cold heart of Rawtenstall, near the dull brown houses (home to grumpy old people and \"hippies\"), a dodgy Asda and a dilapidated market where the grey, brick-shaped building takes hold on a steep hill. The atmosphere looked sterile and austere, like that of a hospital and the staff lacked attention and were as stiff and cold as a rock after rainfall and all of the pupils (who barely talked and look quite sad) and were apparently \"proud\" of being autistic by one of the teachers when one of the pupils corrected him saying they were \"almost\" proud. The recreation area was smaller than anything you could imagine. It was smaller than that of a prison courtyard (HMP Forest Bank for reference) and a tall fence overlooking the grim town centre. At least the food was nice, but again, if the only aspect about a school you like is the food, then there's something seriously wrong.

It seemed good at first. It has a headteacher with 30+ years of experience with children like me with complex needs anf has an alright location in north Bury, which is a reasonable distance to children in Greater Manchester and south Lancashire with nothing but rolling hills and sheep within vision (which is either a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you look at it.). I went for a visit to this location and the actual site itself was absolutely tiny and somehow they managed to keep children from Primary all the way up to Year 11 at the place, having to hold lessons in trailers because the space was so little but the children were actually really nice though I have to admit but the teachers seemed as though they lacked soul or humanity like they don't like they're job or something. I had a meeting there with my mother and all they talked about was just business jargon and how \"We'll get you in as soon as you can\" despite it taking TWO MONTHS to actually get anywhere with it. At the end of it, they phoned my mum saying \"We have a Sixth Form Centre we're going to put him in put him in because he's too smart for everyone else and your son can't go to the nice other building we have\" which was insulting because in terms of work, I was in the middle of year 10 and hadn't even done a single GCSE paper yet.

The recreation area was smaller than anything you could imagine. It was smaller than that of a prison courtyard (HMP Forest Bank for reference) and a tall fence overlooking the grim town centre.
