He does nothing at all about all these problems that people have about this horrible excuse for a school, and more often that not, punishes the person who dared to criticise the school in any way.\n\nOverall, Thornton Grammar\/Beckfoot Thornton needs improvement desperately. Right now, it's very boring, dull, and overall just not a good school, especially with these horrible changes that Mr. Browning made.\n\nYou can already see the star rating I gave, but if I had to give it a score out of 10, then I'd give it a 3\/10 at most.
