The Long Eaton School

"This school will make you miserable. Bulling is a massive problem in this school and none of the teachers do anything about it , even if it's physical and yet they expect you to report it. The classes are noisy and the teachers deal with this terribly, even in after school clinics the classes are noisy. This stressed me out as I wanted to study, but you couldn't with the amount of noises. So I walked out of a few lessons because the noise made me so stressed out I couldn't cope with it anymore. Every time you address problems, the teachers would treat you like your feelings didn't matter. The food was awful as they would have mould in the food and it was inedible."

"This school says they "pride themselves to stop bullying". Which is a lie they tell the children's parents because if an incident happens which escalates to police they'll just back up and forget the incident ever happened. Not caring about the REAL victim. DISGUSTING"

"good school, awful 6th form. don't care about you unless you're applying to oxbridge. completely messed up my education, especially in psychology where they still have not found an adequate replacement for a teacher on maternity leave. I have 5 months left here and I honestly cannot wait to leave, but I'm not sure I'll be able to as the position they have left me in might mean I fail my a levels and won't be able to go to University. Don't care about your mental wellbeing, nor your education. Never fail to make you stress about how little time you've got left and that you're basically not at a high enough standard. Always pushing you to do more, but not in a supportive way, in a patronising and condescending way that makes you feel like you're a failure for not trying hard enough, even though you might be at your limits end."

"I go to this school its alright, the teachers are nice and majority of the lessons you learn things but the senior leadership team are horrible and make the school experience as horrible for us as possible. For example just before the Christmas holidays when year 11 have worked really hard on exams they tell the teachers that we aren't allowed any fun at all not even on last lessons so we have to do normal boring lessons and they also patrol the school looking out for teachers to tell off. The school say they have a zero tolerance bullying policy but bullying still happens and there isn't enough punishment in this category. When Ofsted come in they make us be good for teachers and we then don't get any credit for it."
