Very bad decision on my end and on my parents' end.\n\nWhenever I walk past and see the big poster about how this school has a calm, safe and supportive environment I laugh to myself in disgust.\n\nSurely not all teachers are terrible, few of them have made my time there more bearable. But only very few.\n\nThey will not treat your child like a human, they will treat your child as a learning machine and a trashbag.\n\nThey got good school meals they say? Its usually only for the first 3 weeks of the start of a new year, then they mainly go back to serving your child some AWFUL food no joke.\n\nThey got mental health facilities they say? They won't help much unless you're one of their few priorities, and if you're trying too hard to get their help they will treat you as trash of course (but of course, trying to disguise it in the process by acting like they're doing their best). They're ignorant thats what they are.\n\nJust look at the other reviews here that surely agree with me that this school only good pleasing on the outside but on the inside it is a JOKE of a school!\n\nThey also only seem to value the students that study the hardest and that most fit the criteria of a \"learning machine\", whilst the rest of us are just background people who aren't meeting their excellent standards.\n\nSome staff there will shout at your kids multiple times a day for stupid and unfair reasons, and will keep pushing it down their throats that they need to aim for \"top third universities\/colleges\/etc.\" Thats their way of helping your child \"achieve so called greatness\". I was severely depressed in this school and they turned a blind eye for the most part.\n\nThis is a VERY STRICT school that promotes \"toxic positivity\" no matter what. Your child is depressed, anxious, in need, vulnerable? They might get attention for a little bit and then they should just go back to \"being positive\". Thats not how real life works smh. Awful treatment I'm telling you.\n\nI also witnessed indirect racism from certain staff.\n\nTheres so much more I could say but I'll just stop here for now.","languageCode":"en"},"originalText":{"text":"ZERO STARS.\n\nI stayed in this school from year 7 to 12.
