reviews: [{"relativePublishTimeDescription":"6 years ago","rating":1,"text":{"text":"A handful of Teachers in this school are full of themselves, they do not explain any reasons behind students getting in trouble. As being in the school I have a first hand experience on what goes on, it is true that not all teachers are appalling and some are very good at their job and help a lot of students achieve their best and genuinely care about the futures of their pupils, as I said above only a handful of teachers are rude and quite frankly do not care about anything. As a form of disclosure I will not name these teachers but will describe how they act, for example in the school there is one teacher who comes across when talking to students very aggressive and violent. He would get into your personal space while shouting at you and belittling you, another teacher who not only do I believe this but nearly every other student in the school does and not just because she's a teacher it's because of the way she portrays herself, which comes across as she thinks she is better then everyone else and it's a privilege to be taught by her which as a matter of fact is not the case. This teacher screams at students and never listens to their problems about her because she does not want to hear the truth.\nIn an overall summary this school has great potential with a lot of its teachers it's just a handful of certain teachers need to be talked to or need help with dealing with their emotions at work. Shortly after writing this review it seems to have been made clear that this school is highly unprofessional, I had been kicked out of the school and sent to get my education else where because the school believes I will achieve good grades in a different learning facility which I highly disagree with. One teachers class who I had been kicked out of even though I made it clear I wanted to change classes because I did not understand any of the work at all, I later confronted the teacher who removed me and asked her why she individualised me and kept sending me to the office when I was not speaking or communicating with anyone in the class which means I was not being disruptive. Despite all of this the two teachers who I mentioned above abused there power and played a game with my education and kicked me out. This is evidential in the fact that I was not misbehaved in a lot of my classes and the teachers of those classes could be asked as a sign as proof, I. Am genuinely disappointed in the teachers they hire at this school who abuse there power and like to feel as if they're better then the students making them feel little and inferior.","languageCode":"en"},"originalText":{"text":"A handful of Teachers in this school are full of themselves, they do not explain any reasons behind students getting in trouble.

reviews: [{"relativePublishTimeDescription":"6 years ago","rating":1,"text":{"text":"A handful of Teachers in this school are full of themselves, they do not explain any reasons behind students getting in trouble. As being in the school I have a first hand experience on what goes on, it is true that not all teachers are appalling and some are very good at their job and help a lot of students achieve their best and genuinely care about the futures of their pupils, as I said above only a handful of teachers are rude and quite frankly do not care about anything. As a form of disclosure I will not name these teachers but will describe how they act, for example in the school there is one teacher who comes across when talking to students very aggressive and violent. He would get into your personal space while shouting at you and belittling you, another teacher who not only do I believe this but nearly every other student in the school does and not just because she's a teacher it's because of the way she portrays herself, which comes across as she thinks she is better then everyone else and it's a privilege to be taught by her which as a matter of fact is not the case. This teacher screams at students and never listens to their problems about her because she does not want to hear the truth.\nIn an overall summary this school has great potential with a lot of its teachers it's just a handful of certain teachers need to be talked to or need help with dealing with their emotions at work. Shortly after writing this review it seems to have been made clear that this school is highly unprofessional, I had been kicked out of the school and sent to get my education else where because the school believes I will achieve good grades in a different learning facility which I highly disagree with. One teachers class who I had been kicked out of even though I made it clear I wanted to change classes because I did not understand any of the work at all, I later confronted the teacher who removed me and asked her why she individualised me and kept sending me to the office when I was not speaking or communicating with anyone in the class which means I was not being disruptive. Despite all of this the two teachers who I mentioned above abused there power and played a game with my education and kicked me out. This is evidential in the fact that I was not misbehaved in a lot of my classes and the teachers of those classes could be asked as a sign as proof, I. Am genuinely disappointed in the teachers they hire at this school who abuse there power and like to feel as if they're better then the students making them feel little and inferior.","languageCode":"en"},"originalText":{"text":"A handful of Teachers in this school are full of themselves, they do not explain any reasons behind students getting in trouble.
