worst school ever.
im in year 11 at netherwood and they care more about how people look rather than learning.
in a morning we are made to go stand outside in lines for “morning address”- basically a prison role call.
students getting suspended for rings, clear nose piercings, natural coloured painted nails, when all of the teachers have those things. they can take your phone overnight or over the weekend, and can take jewellery or hoodies until the end of term!?
all of the toilets, except 5 on the first floor, are locked other than at break and dinner, and you can’t even use the unlocked toilets without a pass or it being an “emergency”.
2 hour detentions plus full day in isolation, when its getting darker earlier. they want to take kids phones off them, then leave them to walk home in the dark at 5pm.
parents, dont send your kids here, it wont help them, everyone hates the school and cant get the help they need
the new headteacher “cant be bothered” to talk to students(said this to a students face), and he wont speak to parents either
awful school.
I only went to this school for a year and half. Teachers are so helpful as they encouraged me to follow my dreams no matter how difficult it is. They are so careful about students. I went to this school without knowing any English at all! With all teachers help I came out with 8 GCSEs. However they care so much about how students look.
Horrible school, kids running in the halls and out of control.

When kids are in detention they can simple ask to go to the bathroom and when they do they wander around the school and destruct classes.

Teacher are short tempered and they complain when we are one minute late. Once my friend got detention for being one minute late, yet when she was inexcusably 30 minutes late she was let off.

Teacher let’s people go in their phone to do ‘research’ in class yet they can clearly see people making TikToks and taking phones with one another

Terrable school I go there I’m in y8 my mum is not letting me come out of the school you get excluded if u have a cleare nose pearcing most teachers are horrible to the kids
Very bad school I wouldn’t send your kids here my son was excluded for wearing all black trainers when I went to pick him up I seen several students wearing trainers was told by miss neeves different circumstances when ask to explain she couldn’t
