reviews: [{"relativePublishTimeDescription":"a month ago","rating":1,"text":{"text":"I was a student here from 2017-2022, just left last year from GCSEs to move to Heathland School for my A levels (for 6th form).\nFrom my own experience, I can say that the teachers are not supportive unless you are already ahead of the game- I was academically strong and enjoyed sciences and english, but as time went on, I came to dislike the lessons. I felt that teachers just critiqued and made a big deal of silly little things- especially during covid.\nOne of these is the uniform policy- I don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t understand why uniform is your priority in year 11 exam months, you should be enthusiastic and helping the kids to work hard for their exams rather than doing pointless uniform checks in the mornings. They refused to let us revise in the mornings during form time when we have nothing else to (or just random word of the week assemblies) as if the reason we are at school is not to revise but to waste time.\nMy last head of year was very dramatic like this as well, always doing these stilly talks which don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t encourage any good activity from students. I used to enjoy school, be a straight A student and want to go far, but as time went on at Heston, I wanted to fight back and do silly things because I was annoyed at these pointless rules (I never acted out, but I was annoyed with the teachers\u00e2\u0080\u0099 attitudes).\nOne last thing about uniform (which you probably have realised that it was what annoyed me the most) was about the piercings rule- you\u00e2\u0080\u0099re not allowed nose piercings or more than 1 ear piercing at any time and you have to take the earrings out at Pe if caught.\nI don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t understand how having these make any difference to education- I could see how maybe having fake nails could be slightly harmful if you poke someone or if you can\u00e2\u0080\u0099t write or along those lines but outside of PE, what difference do these adjustments make? They are just metal pieces, and you aren\u00e2\u0080\u0099t allowed to have them at the sixth form either- they do make you remove them for 16-18 years of age if you go there, which is so silly, since people wear makeup and are mentally more mature anyways.\nAt that point, no one cares about \u00e2\u0080\u009cdressing up\u00e2\u0080\u009d if that\u00e2\u0080\u0099s what the teachers think is going on in your minds- having these piercings doesn\u00e2\u0080\u0099t mean you\u00e2\u0080\u0099re going to be a gangster or something.\nI really disliked my last year at Heston in Year 11, because of their rules.\n\nOne very last point is that any good teachers have already left as they are doing this year or at the end of 2022.\nSo personally, if you do want to still go to Heston for your own reasons and not just because of family, please consider these suggestions. Make sure to check for open days and have a look around for the schools, and pay attention to the attitudes of the students showing you around- you can gather if they are smart, disinterested or saying random responses with your own opinions and thoughts.\nBest of luck for your futures!","languageCode":"en"},"originalText":{"text":"I was a student here from 2017-2022, just left last year from GCSEs to move to Heathland School for my A levels (for 6th form).\nFrom my own experience, I can say that the teachers are not supportive unless you are already ahead of the game- I was academically strong and enjoyed sciences and english, but as time went on, I came to dislike the lessons.
