This school always Vouches for British Values but the amount of racism and hate for anyone who isn't British unbelievable. The teaching support at this school is amazing but they have dreadful Rules that don't make sense, for example if your child is 5 minuets late they receive a 25 Minuet detention and for staying in the library after it closed you receive a after school detention. This school really needs help and needs to listen to its student more. Don't get me started on the canteen its absolutely trash, Because they are private they can charge you \u00c2\u00a32 for rubbish sandwich and 80p for a cookie. The price of food is leaving students who are not as wealthy to run out of money and look \"Poor\" This could lead to possible bullying from there peer. Some of the canteen works have agreed with the students or prices. I don't understand what's hard about making the food themselves big company's manage to run there canteens within themselves. I'm very concerned about the school toilets' Due to little delinquents Destroying them. At one point all the boys toilets were closed Leaving people to use the staff toilets. Some of the Marlborough staff team are really rude and disrespectful to there students making disrespectful comments. In some situations with claims against students refusing to provide CCTV and making someone get attack for something they didn't do. The school network is very vulnerable to security breaches such as members of the school being able to access all the Files and snoop through teaches and students files. The hygiene levels at Marlborough are really terrible and disgusting for example the toilets' have urine and sometimes human feces on the floor which leads a vile smell.\n\nThis is all i have to say Thank you for your time.\n#revivemarlborough #bigupmrslang","languageCode":"en"},"originalText":{"text":"Current Year 11 student at Marlborough science academy.
