    student support at this school is 10/10. the teachers actually make an effort to help the students rather than just tell them to make a statement and put people in iso for the week. it’s just a shame that the pupils don’t put the effort in bc as far as I can see the teachers are doing their best to help them but the students just sit about and complain.

      It's not the school the kids attend now, it's the school they attended when they were young students. A lazy, can't be asked 16 year old student learnt to be that way in primary school, not to mention their parents accepting mediocre results. I was not a natural student but from a young age was taught to try and if I did the work the results would come and even then I was only ever a B+ student. These kids parents and primary school teachers failed to instill in them a work ethic. As for "moddly coddling" bullshit, the most impressive part of that school is how much the teachers care and the fact they have social workers in that school looking after kids who's parents don't wanna raise their own children. People view all kids as lazy and they view teachers who don't crack the whip as enablers, which is bullshit, even more kids would have fallen through the cracks if not for the teachers. interestingly the people who have that "coddling" opinion are often the most ignorant

Now they've implemented a zero-tolerance approach where kids are put in isolation. How is that helping these kids?

      M 2802xxx yes completely agree. The exam setting can be very stressful for so many people and because of that stress many perform not to their best ability. I’m not sure about other countries (I live in Scotland and we do Nat 5’s, highers and advanced highers not GCSE’s) but in our schools certain pupils can have separate accommodation if they get extremely stressed in the exam conditions.

      @@deaconsmom2000 In the UK math classes are not usually about basics and reinforcing skills. It's about getting people to pass the key stages in education and 'teaching to the test'. The result is that we know about relatively useless things like sin/cos/tan and nothing about how to do basic BODMAS etc. We need more life skill classes. Most people can't do basic math. And I agree...it would be easier to be taught about morgages rather than just read. make assumptions, and have to guess your way through it based on texts alone.

      I had a friend in my school days who committed suicide during exam season. The pressure was too much for him. It was obvious he was struggling with the pressure on him, by both his family and the school. His family more so. It was awful. His parents were the type who would be ashamed of him and make him look a failure, if he didn't make it to university. The school didn't help the matter. He had his own demons. Being a teenager isn't fun for many. But i'm pretty sure he would still be alive if he wasn't pushed so much.

      AJD 119 Yeah same here! My school is designed for 700 students and there are now around 1000. There’s this ridiculous one-way system so it takes forever to get to lessons

    Oh my god, did the school seriously realise it may be down to stuff they did that the results are so poor? Wow, in year 10, I tried my hardest, failed everything, which is what happened with a lot of people in my year, and to the heads at my school, it was still our fault for “not revising enough.” It was horrible, the pressure just made me angry, we got far too much homework to do that summer. I just wanted to scream and shout a big fat “FUCK YOU” to the whole world, especially as it was just after all the terrorist attacks.
    I still did minimal revision in year 11 but thanks to better teaching, I passed all the real exams. My life is now great for the first time since 2012.

      Fallonwilson xo they don’t they just want the kids to do well, they have a good support team and stuff i wish my school and surrounding schools around me did but all they care about is the schools reputation, this school cares about the kids themselves in order for them to do well.

    I am actually really jealous of how this school deals with situations. One of my friends got excluded the moment A RUMOUR sprouted about her planning to stab another student with a knife it was a joke and then she was excluded for like a month THEY DID NOTHING ABOUT IT EXCEPT ASK A COUPLE OF US FOR STATEMENTS AND NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THESE!!!!! And nobody ever notices when I'm angry or upset just as I don't channel it on others!!!! Just I wish they actually cared about us!!
