Not the best in the area, failed when dealing with bullying cases, they seem dismissive, a few victims has left the school due to bad handling of the situation. Thankfully the previous behaviour teacher has left, she used her power and sided with bullies and their fake statements. As with the Sen query I am not so sure, they do take on a few students and support them, they seem to be happy there.

Thankyou . So has the teacher who covered up bullying gone now?
I had a kind of similar experiences with colins borough college. 2 of their students were beating up my 2 primary children in the park. I got their names etc. When I called the school . She got defensive right away trying to deny it. Her tone sounded like a stroppy teenager.

Sorry to hear about your experience. Yes, the teacher eventually left for other reasons but other teachers were aware of the issue. When you feel your child isn’t getting the right support from threats, online target, verbal abuse, being cornered, made up statements from other students (bullies), I had to move my child from what was a toxic environment.

I would suggest viewing all the potential schools inside and outside - go after school to see how the students behave. Check out the facilities, policies, talk to the students.
