- Most people would run a mile rather than join a room full of teenagers for their school dinner.
At best, you might imagine making awkward conversation with sullen adolescents, at worst, a Grange Hill-style food fight.
What actually happened at the Michaela Community School - dubbed “Britain’s strictest school” - was certainly noisy, but not in the way you might expect...

Some people think the children are unhappy.
That is because they are unhappy.
No because they want to be jobless.
Casual 5 hour dt for forgetting a pencil
No, I go to this school and the detentions are only that long when we haven't attempted to do any holiday homework that is compulsory. You'd get a 30 minute detention for forgetting a pencil tho
@@ummchileanywaysso7609 I mean, detention for forgetting a pencil when you can borrow one is still quite extreme.
its 45 mins 5 hours is for isolation
@@2yeon 5 hours isolation mine is 1 30
@@threelions2109 Then borrow one before you get to class. It is teaching resourcefulness, thinking ahead, checking to see if you have what you need aka all the skills you need in real life. Teachers who actually want to teach rather than discipline and students who want to learn rather than slag off love schools with clear rules and regulations.
Its a bit suspicious we dont hear from the kids
Maybe because none of them are aren’t allowed to speak. Or maybe because they’re so traumatised and scared of breathing that a word to the camera equals execution. I’d love to see one of them advertise this school, yeah if you want a taste of what prison is like, then come spend your entire teenage years trapped in this hell hole.
@@JaidenColburn yea this school seems terrible like literally obviously the teachers are gonna say good things about it. Like its just so strict that like these kids will barely be able to make friends seeming u can like never talk to anyone
@@danielgrose2525 Exactly. School is meant to prepare students for the real world when they become adults, but when they’re treated like prisoners, it teaches them that they don’t have a voice and that people above them don’t value them. It’s only going to harm their mental health and affect their lack of independence. They could at least allow them to make their own decisions. Like if everything is laid out like that and they have to obey by those rules, what does it teach them about how the world works? Nothing.
@@danielgrose2525 naah your wrong.i go to Michaela and it's not what you think it is. It is basically like any normal secondary school but it's only strict when you do something wrong once or repeatedly
@@UnderratedAlpha me too, which form r u from,?
Who the fuck does 5 hour detentions?
I know right
Mate im happy i go crest up't road its a shithole but its better
Exactly someone in the comments said they would love 2 go there minging that right
There isn't tho, I used to go there
@@davinapatel8088 no wonder y ur dumb
What kind of school is this? Id be pissed off if my parents sent me there.
Ikr
from their website “Our Results are extraordinary.
Michaela’s last Progress 8 score placed us as the best school in the country.”
I attended a high school with very similar policies to this. You could be punished and get detentions and demerits (The school also implemented a merit/demerit disciplinary system) for minor offenses, such as forgetting equipment, having the wrong shade/colour of clothing, having a shirt untucked, having a top button undone, your tie at the incorrect length, your hair too long or short. I could write a novel on the youtube comment system. Teachers would force you to run laps, and you had to stand when teachers entered the room. I once got in trouble for forgetting to underline the date on a homework assignment (Evening detention for me). I once remember a maths teacher slamming his fist onto a table and telling a young boy that he would make him cry in front of all his friends if he could not sit still (I think he may have had ADHD) Humiliating punishments were common. I am in my 30's now. I love my parents and they thought they were doing the best for me by fighting to get me into a school that boasted about having a high number of graduates who went on to the best colleges and ultimately universities such as Oxford and Cambridge. I hated every minute of it. When I went to college and university and met other people, I began to realize that not everyone had the same experience as me. I did have a few lovely teachers there, but, very few. Most were just on a power trip. Yes, the school had the best exam performances around, but the pastoral care was abysmal. Going from a lovely village primary school to there was a shock for me. One good thing it did for me though, was it made me more compassionate towards young people.
Glad to hear a first hand experience! I think it’s for a special kind of student and not everyone will fit but if you have what it takes could make you excel much quicker and more extensively than going to a normal school. Pros and cons like anything but I would think most kids that end up successful appreciate the rigorous school and sacrifices for that success. As a child you would never be able to make those choices on your own for the chance of having that kind of future as your just not developed enough to do that. Hell 99.9% of adults aren’t even developed to be able to sacrifice for such a large amount of time in order to have a greater result farther down the line. Humans are programmed to go after the easy low hanging fruit that was necessary to survive in the past. Without this survival threat being so pronounced as it has been for most of human history, modern societies have negated this in humans and so the ones that might have been the best, most likely to survive in past evolutionary terms are at a disadvantage than other less likely to survive in past but have adaptations that make them better equipped to be successful in todays created world. Basically the people who can force themselves and brains to not take the low hangin fruit but rather sacrifice time and joy now in order to reap a better reward and bigger fruit in the future. And really it’s the ones who find joy and happiness in the process of sacrificing for a future reward that will be the most successful in the future rather than being miserable while working toward a reward and then being extremely joyful when they get the reward as this will cause a crash in motivation for whatever you need to accomplish next making it more difficult than previous.
@@lsuronak1992 That is an interesting analysis. Some children will perhaps benefit from this kind of system. I do think everyone needs to learn some form of self discipline to survive, but to what extreme is certainly up for debate. Your post reminded me of the story of the Ant and the Grasshopper. That is a good anology for planning ahead and reaping what you sow. I guess it depends on what you want out of life. For some children this school enviorment would be counter productive and even toxic to the most sensitive of children. For many it will destroy their passion for learning. Other children may not excel in all areas of academia but may thrive in more practical pursuits. One size certainly doesn't fit all. I do respect the school for standing for what they believe in. That is not easy. Even if I do not believe in their policies, I respect them for that.
Sounds like it got you into university too. Sounds like your taking everything it gave you for granted
@@dembert4666 Yes, you could argue that it got me into university, but plenty of my fellow students and colleagues got into university from less draconian backgrounds. I always say that there is unpleasant leniency towards adultism in the west. Children are often regarded as inferior to adults. Their problems are frequently dismissed and they are not respected or acknowledged. Yes, everyone has to learn discipline and respect for a collective society to function, but it is hypocritical to demand respect when you are not willing to respect the child and their needs. Some children may benefit from the environment at Michaela, but for some, it could cause great emotional damage. Thank you for your comment. I respect all views from the political spectrum. Even if I do not agree with them.
@Doctor_Who Maybe so. Different cultures have different social etiquettes.
One good thing that I did experience in my schooling was that a vast majority of the students wanted to learn. In some schools, children can be afraid to study or answer questions for fear of it inciting bullying.
Most of our teachers were authoritarian and dismissive of our emotional well-being.
You wouldn’t dream of trying to debate your point with some of them.
The motto was simply, children should do as their told, without taking into account the individual circumstances of the child. The very few children who were majorly disruptive were simply expelled.
A lot of studies show that a child being expelled can do more harm than good. School is children’s first introduction to society. If the school is not willing to work through their disruptive behavior or to help communicate and inspire children with complex social and emotional needs, the message the child receives is that they are useless. Their self-esteem diminishes, they become angry and resentful and this causes a host of problems into adulthood.
For many children, the teacher is the only nurturing and positive role model in their lives.
Obviously, some children have to be expelled, but it should always be the very last resort.
Thank you for your comment. It is interesting how there are so many arguments for and against this kind of school.
All of the people calling this “child abuse” were clearly allowed to do anything they want to in school and never got punished.
By design, I feel, and I'm not the only one.
"School has done a pretty good job of turning our children into addicts, but a spectacular job of turning our children into children. Again, this is no accident. Theorists from Plato to Rousseau to our own Dr. Inglis knew that if children could be cloistered with other children, stripped of responsibility and independence, encouraged to develop only the trivializing emotions of greed, envy, jealousy, and fear, they would grow older, but never truly grow up."
Excerpt from: Weapons of Mass Instruction, by 36-year educator, John Gatto
Its not "child abuse" its called strict.
Exactly!!!
Have you sent your child there then you can talk?
So, do you wanted to never have our talk with your friends at school cuz you were going to be punished??. 🤔
Probably the search history of these kids is probably: 'top 5 best ways to escape school while in detention'
They probably get their internet history checked and then they go back to detention 😅
I do understand how westerners find this school so hard to believe it’s good for children but I can tell this school will be hugely popular with Asian and African background parents - they want their children to focus on education and not on things like being bullied and teachers having no control over how to discipline students. My mother despaired of the schools I went to, as a Japanese mother she couldn’t believe how chaotic and the lack of discipline and rules of western schools and she always wished she could’ve had money to send me to a private school but I said mum they are getting just as bad lol - but this was back in the 90s 😅
Japanese kids when they move into the workforce tend to be crap though because they've never actually learned to be independent during their schooling and come up with original thoughts. They've just learned stuff by rote like at this school and been brought up in an oppressive schooling environment that doesn't encourage kids to be truly intellectually curious or develop proper social skills.
The fact non of the students were interviewed a lil haunting
Your inability to conquer rudimentary grammar tells us that you didn't attend this school. Enjoy driving the van.
The thing is they didn’t let us be interviewed because they knew what we would say well the brave people at least I most certainly have no fear of talking back to these teachers and honestly I have if they interviewed a student and didn’t get an answer they wanted they would exclude them probably and delete the footage
The sec school I studied in 2015-2021 in HK did really well after having a similar model for online learning classes during covid. Despite such a difficult year, the DSE class of 2021 returned the best result in the school's history in terms of people meeting the university admission benchmark (85.3%, beating the 84.7% set in 2014), and the overall performance was really strong, with many subjects returning their best performance in years. The first A level cohort also did really well.
The 2023 cohort went on to shatter the record with 87.6%, as the model continued to be used.
i like how it says they let children be children though all the rules are against it
The children did not look miserable. Children actually like rules and they like adults who can keep things under control.
The headteacher talking about detentions are very normal until you realise that the detentions are apparently 5 HOURS LONG !!!!
Well it's certainly going to deter kids from fighting in the hall.
9 hours and 10 minutes Referral session
Not only is that wasted life, but it's wasted EDUCATION....
Sorry but if parents in London would bring up kids who can have a socially acceptable behaviour there would be no need for school like this. My son goes to a similar school and is pretty standard regular common sense behaviour, but without those rules you will have morons disrupting every single minute of the school day. There also safety reasons why certain rules are in place, too many kids are just aggravated and looking for any excuse to fight. Again, bring up well rounded individuals and there would be no need for schools like this one.
Anyone who thinks this is bad doesn't know what a normal, non-selective inner city school is like. This place looks brilliant.
Either a troll or someone that loves the strictest school...
More like child abuse
5 HOUR DETENTIONS? That’s torture.
As someone who went to a pretty cruddy school in Norfolk and then taught in a pretty cruddy school in West Croydon, I can safely say that Michaela is heaven and a bastion of learning.
says someone who is strict
This is traumatising the school is a prison like who the hell gives 5hour detentions
No, I go to that school and you don’t get 5 hour detentions, detentions only last 30 mins. The only time when the detentions are long is if you get more than one detention. (Maximum amount 4) so, 30 mins = 1 detention 60 mins = 2 detentions. 80 mins = 3 detentions. 1 hour = 4 detentions. Although isolation is 5 hours. :)
@@Iconic_.. uhhh I hope you made a typo? If not this school is not what I thought if you actually attend lol!!
1 detention being 30 min
2 detention being 1 hour
How in the hell can 4 detentions be the same as 2? 1 hour = 60 min!
And then randomly get to an 80 min session for 3 detentions rather then continuing the 30 min increments and then back to the obvious error with the time differences for 3 detentions and 4 detentions?
@@lsuronak1992 hiya! So, I don’t get and accurate timing although this is a rough description of the detentions, and yes, it’s true! Every detention is 30 mins! But we don’t get no more than about an hour. The only time we get 5 hours is isolation! :) (and yes I do attend that school)
@@Iconic_.. how old are you?
Is English not your first language?
Your scale is still way off how is 3 detentions 80min? Did you mean to say it’s 90 min? And then 4 detentions as 2 hours instead of 1 hour you typed?
@@Iconic_.. your grammar is terrible, that’s why I ask your age and if English is your first language. I would think anyone attending this school in England would be very good at grammar imo but idk!
This seems horrific for neurodivergent students - I can just imagine kids with Autism, Tourette's, ADHD, PANS, etc being punished for involuntary symptoms.
It sounds odd but as someone with ADHD and possibly autism I would have thrived in this school. In my school they did nothing to help me develop the soft skills essential for surviving as an adult. I then got forced into DBT to learn those skills which did more harm than good. Oh and I was bullied relentlessly at school for not having those skills which ruined my self esteem, self confidence, and left me with C-PTSD which was then added to but the abuse of services missing my neurodivergence and focusing on the bullying being the cause of my problems and then deciding I didn’t have true trauma and instead had a personality problem. I feel it is important to state that I do not support ABA but do believe some skills need to be developed to help people be the best they can be
You know what this school’s ND/LD services and protocol are?
They say successful which essentially means that they’ll have a moderately paid office job
Not really. Successful means they’ll have the cultural capital and cultural literacy to engage with the world and be active citizens, unlike most schools which seem content for their students to not lick windows during English.
What's wrong with that
Better than being living in chronic poverty.😂😂
@@andrews6952I see it as similar to ABA therapy treatments for autism. Yes, we successfully discouraged behaviors that were considered “bad”, but at the expense of the students well-being.
Programs like this tend to emphasize tangible and economically relevant results rather than asking its potential victims how they feel. Simply using behaviorism to enforce externally pleasing results at the expense of internal well-being is wrong.
Not a big deal just the casual 5 hour detention
Feels like military school...
_”Children cannot be in groups more than 4.”_
Nah this ain't a school, more like a prison tbh
Let me guess you haven’t done well in life… and either work as a mechanic or as dustbin man or maybe in the DOL!
From my learnings of the western scholastic model, this appears quite an improvement.
Holding students accountable for their actions is fundamental to ensure well-adjusted, mature individuals.
1 sec late 4 class is 5 hour detension there how is that an improvement

oh yes bc forcing students to attend five hour detentions is very humane 😍👍
Only if you do not follow the rules :)
What’s the difference lol we usued to have in school suspension which is basiclly 8 hours of detention all day long. Unless It’s all after school then that’s a bit crazy
@@lsuronak1992 exactly. This 5 hour detention happens after the classes at this strict school
Education Dictatorship at it's finest.
5 hours silly. Someone is too anal. We got in trouble for not having a pen too and had to walk single file, typical Catholic school of the 70’s. We had to write an essay on forgetfulness or maybe a small fine. Didn’t happen to often. A lot of kids borrow off each other that extra pen. I will say we used pencils back then for a long time. I had to send my kids school 48 pencils when he was younger. Does he use a pencil for only a couple days? They are tables and we were at desks. Easier to keep your pencil in your box I guess. Glad for a video like to really see the school doesn’t have proper halls or a proper gym. This is the same school with the court case and the prayer ban. This is not a typical school you enroll the kid in cause it’s in your school boundary. It’s a special status free school like a US charter school. In high school in the 80’s there were lunch detentions or Saturday detentions. They were all day on Saturday. Those were repeat offenders or ditching a class. Not forgetting a pen. Or running out of ink.
All the parents who love this school for their children we’re beaten by their parents
Looks wonderful! Children should act like children! They are not adults free to do as they choose. They’re learning boundaries and agency! They have a place where they belong, and they are loved! Beautiful!
Ok quick question how is any of this ADHD friendly. Everything she is discussing is something a person with ADHD cannot do
Is society going to give all these allowances for adhd? Not really no. So....
@@TheBigThinker944 considering this is a school and schools are meant to accomodate special needs, yeah
@@TheBigThinker944 Society is becoming more aware of neurodivergence.
Predictability helps some children with SEN. Also low expectations is a form of child abuse. Many children with ADHD would struggle but people can surprise you.
@@TheBigThinker944 I mean in the UK they don’t really have a choice but to abide by the 2010 equalities act and if anything isn’t provided that is reasonable anyone who is disabled including neurodivergent, comes from diverse backgrounds or has reasons why they wouldn’t be given equal opportunities ends up being discriminated against would have very strong grounds to suit an employer or individual not providing accommodations so the answer in the UK is yes or try not to me you’ll see how much money you lose. Providing accommodations isn’t an option or luxury it’s a human right. Just like if you didn’t allow somebody to go to the bathroom. Which is why the physically disabled have to have access in a public property to a disabled bathroom. Or why those with low support developmental conditions like Autism, ADHD or other mental health conditions who can work with reasonable adjustments have to have access to accommodations. Because being able to work is a human right and if you can’t work having pathways that allow for yourself to not be living on those poverty line is necessary. Like benefits to help families pay for carers or extra higher support need accommodations like assisted living. So yes the UK public does need to provide these accommodations based on the UK 2010 UK equalities act stating that all British citizens, residents or those settling in the UK under a Visa by law have to have access to work. The government has litterally set up a scheme for the disabled to get extra funding called the access to work fund this ensures that employers have no choice but to fund accommodations. Because the government can pay them to do so if they don’t. This is non refundable. So if I need a special type of font to read my employer has to provide me this accommodation. If I need extra time to produce a document my employer has to provide me with this. Is that thorough enough for you? Just to be clear this is only talking about the UK not sure what their countries rules are if you are international. But I’m British so this is relevant to me
Amazing! love it.
Is it true that they’re not allowed to talk to their friends unless given permission and also in the hallways to and from

…and now the school is violating human rights law!
This headmistress also emphasised the important of British culture and loving the UK; she said they sing Jerusalem and the national anthem regularly. Utterly fabulous. You’d have to be dropped on the head to actually have an issue with kids from poor, deprived backgrounds, having such a high rate of success from the school.

Inside Britain’s BEST school
This is what all teachers expect school to be like
Bro this school is like being in the military
As someone who has been in this from 2018-2019 bro it's like a prison bro I got 5 hour detentions all the time just for being like 2 minute late
Then be on time. Be late to business meetings worth money. Won't be five hour detentions you get
@@TheBigThinker9445 hours detentions is not synonymous with being 2 mins late. And it's not always their fault that they're late.
It's not like a prison -
You have to commit a crime to go to prison.
When they punish you with it, it's not for offences like speaking, it's for stuff like murder and you get trails and re-trails and a trained person appointed to you to help prove you're innocent (even when you're guilty) and a fortune spent on you to make sure it's fair before you're forced there.
The rules when you're in prison aren't even *remotely* close to being so strict and stressful.
You're legally protected from double jeopardy because even for crimes like murder that's considered immoral in school you can get it for any reason at all often innocuous (or triple, quadruple jeopardy or more). This is considered so immoral to do to criminals to the point of criminality, it's illegal unless you did it to a child.
Even if guilty of the crime you can get out early for good behaviour in prison, in school zero crime committed and no matter how obedient/"good" you are you don't get out.
In prison they're protected from "collective punishments" because according to both the UN and the Geneva convention that is inhumane and immoral because it's punishes known innocent's, the only institution in society we aren't protected from it, is school.
In prison you aren't micro-managed so strictly even your language and bodily functions like bathroom use dictated, monitored and decided by others and you won't be punished/aka hurt for a massive assortment of things you would be here.
You don't spend the whole time in prison doing stressful work (stress kills brain cells) but can relax in your jail reading books of your own choice you enjoy instead or even watch tv or play video games.
In prison the criminal can bring it up with the justice system if they feel a punishment was unjust and get those who did it punished, in school you almost never have this option and will almost certainly be ignored, if they do get punished for something it'll be paid vacation from work or something much lighter than the one who wronged the inmates.
In school you'll be hurt worse for "talking back" as you don't have equal rights to accused criminals right to a defence or speaking up for yourself, in fact you may not even be present at the meeting's deciding your fate.
In many, many schools there is a "zero tolerance policy" which makes it official school policy that if someone is being bullied and attacked, the victim must be punished just as badly as the perpetrator is, this is true regardless of if the one being attacked fought back or even if they just sat there and allowed themselves to be beaten by the bully, either way they're to be punished, again it's not that teachers are just allowed to do this, it's that they're given explicit instructions telling them they must do this.
In prison it's already developed human brains being subject to it's stresses, in school it's still developing ones.
Stress has been scientifically proven repeatedly to kill brain cells, reduce empathy for others, condition something called "learned helplessness", increase your chances of developing every disease and illness, lower happiness, self esteem, increase chances of anti-social, cruel behaviour and increase risk of substance abuses all of these things set off even more issues and suffering, is it any wonder that data published shows suicide among school student's is higher than that among criminals? that every year at the start of September when schools go back there is a massive increase in suicide among youth? and it goes massively down at start of summer, goes up again when returning after each break throughout the year? it rises and falls all throughout the year with the school schedule, among other places, these finding's can be seen on psychology today published by Dr. Peter Gray.
I haven't even mentioned the fact it's still legal and widely practised in 69 countries to beat student's with weapons (and 19 US states) whereas it's been banned against criminals hundreds of years because people *back then* considered it too inhumane many even modify the weapons to make sure they hurt the children more and the penalty for being caught doing it to a little 5 year old girl in places where it is NOT legal is to just have the community come out to defend you and insist you keep your job, which is exactly what happened in Florida when a teacher was caught illegally paddling a little girl and screaming in her sobbing face, if to an adult jail time.
I have to stop because there is more sufferings and moral transgressions which wouldn't be tolerated if done against criminals which we exclusively reserve only for those we care about protecting most of all and are the most helpless but it's way too long a list and the list of what we'd tolerate if done against adults rather than criminals is even longer. The children every year who continuously get forced into these environments until they mentally break and kill themselves were *murdered* it was not suicide it was child neglect, endangerment and child murder because lot's of them die every year from it, it's mass murder, more kids kill themselves every year from this than sexual abuse. In prison it's illegal to force someone there if they're innocent, in school it's illegal for everyone to not be forced there, freedom from it is what's illegal/banned.
people come late to business meetings and other such professional things ALL THE DAMN TIME@@TheBigThinker944
I'm sorry you have had to go to a school like this. The country has failed its young people's education since 2010 and allowed monstrosities like this "academy" to proliferate.

Parents: this looks like a nice school. The school: do 100 assignments and come to class on time every single day or u get 10 hour detention.
detentions are 30 minutes ur exaggerating
This is straight up child abuse
Its straight up rules that 5 year olds follow.
Just wanna discipline but overall okay school this won’t be the school I will go to anyways but it’s okay

That's exactly Michaela. There's lots of clubs in breaktime, and the teachers never make you sleep (in a good way), it's amazing.

Not to sound like a hippy but where's the school art? where's the terrible haircuts and neon wristbands? Where's the skateboards and neglected herb garden wedged in an old tractor tyre. These kids are gonna believe that success is purely about high grades and getting a well paid job and nothing about being a fucking human being.
Being a human is not dependant on neon wrist bands and bad haircus. Plus, its 2022 how many kids do you see these days with terrible haircuts and neon wristbands? That's a very 2001 thing. Having a dress code at school is mandatory in all schools for a reason in England. Not just this one. And they should adhere to that. It doesn't hurt a child to follow some rules for 6 hours a day. After school they can wear whatever they want. Also no high school has random pieces of art strewn around the school, thats reserved for the art department. They aren't in year 4. These standards are basic rules that a 5 year old is expected to follow whilst at school

It's very telling that whenever problems in UK education are discussed, it's always in terms of discipline, money and classroom sizes, but no one discusses the elephant in the room; teaching methods.
In the end, what makes a difference is the methodology and rationale the teachers use to teach the children. In British state schools, the teaching methods are uniformly crap.
Exactly!
How should they be improved?
Are u a teacher?
You know detentions run to 9pm a don’t go to the school
The United Kingdom’s Department of Education needs to shut this school down where kids constantly live in fear and can’t talk and are made into robots with their childhood taken away from them. Why can’t kids be kids. The UK DOE needs to shut this school down.
At least this school some toys and things to play
Awesome! More power to you! Wish I could teach at your school! ❤️
Ew
@@Trust_No_001 ew you then
I ain't going there thank gosh
@@vid9511 Yh pls don’t I have to talk back to these teachers who show no respect to us
The least strickt school is in the netherlands come take a look at that
Social standards in the Netherlands are very different than in the UK. On average kids are very different (in a more positive way) in the Netherlands compared to the UK. You interact with a cat differently than you would a lion.
I was talking about one school in particular
and my mum is trying to take me to that school 😭
Good for you! I'm a Michaela pupil, and the school is really not as bad as you think it is.
But the children aren't sending themselves to school. So what if there is a genuine and acceptable reason why a student is running late? Would that student still be liable for detention? If so, then to me that's absolute madness!
That’s sick they have a pole table
Most the rules are acceptable tbh. Just the 5 hour detentions area but extreme.
Less strict than my school
What about students with disabilities who cannot meet the expectations or rules? I live in the USA not the Uk so I don’t know uk policies about how schools like these would handle those situations
My son was in a school like this Northern Ireland, U.K. he is profoundly deaf wearing a cochlear implant. He had a teaching assistant present so many hours. He was treated and disciplined like everyone else, had that extra input if needed. He is now studying law. Best school ever I can’t thank the headmistress enough for what she has done including her tough discipline, but with love. My son hated it now today he thanks her voted her along with others best head teacher of Nothern Ireland. That includes many other pupils
This is like a damn prison to me now students of one minute late to get a five hour detention if you have strict stress, are you a kid? I’m looking forward to go to the community school. Please do not go there
You get a detention
This should be the future of the English education system.
Detention five hours
I’m actually from Kenton which is partially in Brent. Never knew this existed. This is awesome
They're successful coz they're traumatised it's a prison
Not really it works but I think there is probably a better way like less propaganda
It’s not a prison my dear. Trust me. Without Mcs, I wouldn’t be where I am today.😘
Don’t think I’d enjoy it there but it wouldn’t be as bad as a prison.
Traumatised people aren't generally very successful.
Oh please, don't be so ridiculous
If Umbridge had her way with Hogwarts
If all schools were like this school there will be fewer entitled people about
Exactly!
You sound like a Tori
The school is great. Too many young kids are running riot.
Dickensian workhouse,where’s Mr Bumble????
Next time lets hear some thoughts from the kids because I guarantee they don't think the same
if iam kid and this is my school i just end it
nahhh this school is hell fire
Sue
To the greece we have not these schools.The teacher will tell to the students on who they will tell?The another day he will find his car destroyed.One teacher has slap a student and the another students cracked their car.
High Expectations: Correct Equipment, No Mobile Phones, No Late Marks, Correct Uniform
Straight Up Mean Things: No talking... EVER. 5 HOUR long Detentions and NO F*CKING DOING RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES LIKE PRAYING?!!?!?!?! Like how is that enforcing Ofsted to get an outstanding rating when it even is HELL.
I can see why they weren't them to cook though. It's basically Food Tech every day.
Praises to this school and teachers !!! My son studied here from start to finish and I’m so proud of his end results !! All A ⭐️ s in GCSEs
I am Northern Ireland, I am not catholic sent my son to a catholic school like this one which was strict!They removed his phone for a week I phoned and told them to keep it for two! He broke the rules! My son is now studying law. Exactly what is wrong with schools today divided and lack of discipline!
I'm still not coming to that school wtf you mean nothing is making me go
These comments are goofy - LOVE THIS SCHOOL! Good on them doing this with kids from the "bottom"! There were kids interviewed, contrary to a comment preceding mine, and WOW! These kids will go a lot farther than the commenters ; )
Exactly these are inner city kids that probably have 0 discipline from home and not with bright futures and good mentors. To say this is torture or anything of the sorts is insane lol. Yes kids should have fun but they can do that while being disciplined and outside of the school hours they can be normal or whatever you want to call just playing around. I guarantee when these kids are older and have great jobs and family’s of their own will gladly tell anyone they absolutely love that they went to this school as it’s the only way they are as successful as they are now. There is a reason they have the scores they do and people that go to normal school don’t!!
Off topic, but they just seem to hire runway models as teachers... Daym!
I only will last 3 secs in that school bc 1 the uniform bc I’m from America and two I have adhd and give me 5 hour detention I won’t show up and be late to school so yeah
I feel for the kids, hope there mothers can actually do something like move them to an different school.
To a laissez aller school?
@@africansisterExactly! I wish my son studied in this school...
I never thought I would see an Auschwitz in the uk

I went to school in the 70's and 80's here in Australia, and I hated soft teachers. They had no control over class clowns, and that stopped everyone from learning. I kid seated behind me in class kept throwing things at my head, and all he got was...........'johhny stop it'. Other than that, she didn't do a thing so I had to take matters into my own hands, doing her job for her. All this was going on when all I wanted was to learn in a controlled environment. I'd rather a strict teacher in my classroom than lots of out of control kids who fool around, disrupting the learning process.
Marshmallow teachers who try to be your friend instead of your teacher, are doing you no favours. If you have a strict teacher, you'll thank them years later.
Best teacher I ever had was this cranky Scotsman (in Australia) who had a great sense of humour and rapport with everyone.........if you kept within your boundaries.
A strict teacher has absolutely to be backed up by a strict administration and strict rules. If the school management is against strictness, if you can't punish the child for being rude or impudent, the children very quickly figure out that the teacher is powerless.
You don't mean no sense
And who the fuck will let there kids go to that horrible place
Least strict japanese school:
i dont think japanese schools are strict
@@yuanlatina8258 you've never been to Japan, huh
I wouldn't really enjoy it there to be honest
Where do I apply? Taught in China twice and it would be like coming home 🥰 (But seriously, where do I apply?)
⚠️suicide mention warning⚠️
If I went to this strict school and I got yelled at by a teacher I would go to a roof and jump off it because I wouldn’t cope with it 😢
Understandable. This school should be shut down.
@bluexboxgamer2613 I agree with you
A lot of Asian schools have been running like this. I hope they can remain conservative which is good.
*hard Pink Floyd vibes*
I wish my school was like this
Then ur glad its not
Exactly, this is the school I wanted. Imagine how well disciplined I could have been as an adult. Setting the sucess since young age. This kind of experience creates the best people
