My son who is three tried to start swimming lessons here. I applied to attend the introductory lesson, where I thought I would be able to introduce my son to the person who would teach the lesson. No, it was hectic and a mess. My son just had to go along and go straight in to the pool. Even though he is three and is in the process of being diagnosed with a condition. Not sure what it is, but it is perhaps autism or hyperlexia. Could be something else. Not sure yet. But I didn’t get to talk about it or ask if it was still possible for my son to do lessons with them, as he would have needed someone to keep a keen eye on him and guide him. My son seemed ok in the pool so I booked him in for the lessons. There was no organisation, the teacher was rude and full of himself. He didn’t know what to do. He was harsh. I went with my son to the side of the pool and told him to wear the noodle float. The teacher took it off him (in a manner which was out of egotism to let ME know HE was in charge) and dropped him into the pool, I started shaking with anger. My son cannot swim and doesn’t understand he could drown. I said put the float on him!!! He did after a short while because clearly the boy was spluttering. So so bad and not understanding or Acaring of me or my son. Really upsetting to do that when I wanted my son to wear a float for safety.

Was only there for 2 years because i was bullied horribly and nothing was done about it. Heads of house “talked” to the people but they really did absolutely nothing. Staff aren’t much better. I know many people in my year who were bullied by students and staff. Was okay before the new head teacher. P.E. teachers were by far the worst.

A few football pitches, grass gets very very wet as it does not drain too well as well as indoor facilities available too. Did not see too much of it to be honest sonon next visit i will explore more.

Went there yesterday on gymnastics competition, no organisation, rude people and staff which don’t know what they doing, not enough space for all the parents coming in, you paying on entry but you can not even sit down waisted 9 hours for nothing. First grupe of gymnasts started at 8am and finished at 12am but then we had to wait for second grupe to finish ( till 4pm) for gymnasts to receive them medals ( over 8 hours) ridiculous. After that they gave the medals and then they took them away as they have made mistake counting the points the worst gymnastic competition I’ve ever been…never ever coming there again. SHAME

all of the teachers are excellent and the students are well mannered and behaved especially 1 student named James keasey he was very well dressed he offered food and drink to me and he even offered to get our seats and was using some of the best vocab I have ever heard, I think it is only appropriate to give him 100 positives and he is the reason I have rated you 5 stars and he should receive an award for all of his efforts to impress us he should also have all of his negatives removed that is he had any.
