Do you think your school is decent?

[Caution]

Educationally, yeah it's good. I can't say the same with regard to the looks and facilities though.

In 2005/06 my highschool was in a pretty bad way. There was no defined head-teacher just a sort of ensemble of senior staff.

Got this new chap in and its pretty much sorting itself out. So for the most part it's good, well stocked although there are few social areas for the 6th form (all on one site).

Worrying smell of piss a lot of the time though

[dbgtz]

Some parts yes some no. Most no.
There are quite a few cool ass teaches around my school. End.

However the headmaster is total crap (even though he's doing another school atm hes "coming back" next year) and he's turned the place into a **** hole. Here's what he's done:
-Made the site look like crud by removing bins and the people who clear it up don't because the students are supposed to clear it up :S.
-He bribed us with a nonuniform day so we'd act good infront of the OFSTED inspectors.
-He and the head of languages totally effed us over making us do 2 years of german then make us do French (which noone wanted to do). Now were not even a language college and the teachers are like "you don't have to be here if you don't want" and we just say yes we do.
-He brought in a security gaurd, nuff said.
-He installed loads of cameras around the school when half of them don't even work (coz they're supposed to change direction but don't).
-He got like 5 30" TVs and only uses them to display the school day and school news.
-He's a douchebag who noone wants back, not even the teachers.
-He pulls us out of lessons to talk to us about behavior even though there's a clear assembly slot where he could do that, so he just disrupts our learning even more.
-He tried changing the school day so we have an hour lunch which noone wants. We even said "lunch times are boring and we'd rather go home earlier" and parents said that would just cause them inconvinence too and people would be confused by the whole day.

If I remember anymore I'll post

lmao my school cut 5 mins off lunch time to allow us to go home earlier, but I hated the change .

12 years in the same place (Year 1-lower 6th so far) and i'm loving it.

Relaxed atmosphere, pastoral care is awesome, we get a gym for free use in the 6th form, we have our own canteen in 6th form which is staffed all through the day so we can eat when we want and the school as a whole performs really well (99% pass for gcse, 99% for AS and 100% for A2 last year)

Keeping in mind this is fee paying.

I like my school for the most part. we're ranked in the top 10 for the state/area/something public schools a lot of our students do really well and most of the teachers are at least decent. some teachers are jerks tho and our water fountains SUCK. our school's really clean and nice looking. a lot of people complain but I think its because we do have such high standards that they know they need to work really hard to be the best even though they don't want to. however this year our principal (our AMAZING principal) retired in december so now we have some principal whose an interim principal and is old and technically already retired? :S its strange. but for the most part our school is good, but their lunches mostly suck too

[AlexOC]

Yes. Its good. (Y)

Pretty bad tbh. Whites are the minorities. At least 3/4 of the school are drug dealers or druggies. Plenty of gangs, people have guns/knives/other crap all the time, nobody really gets caught. But its whatever, only another year.

[luce]

yeah coz we have 100% GCSE AS and A pass rate at A*(a)-C with over 50% of each being A*-B (where applicable).. Yeah i know this coz i went to my Post-16 evening thursday night LOL.

Erm we are U19 Seniors Girls National BB champs have an intense football, hockey, rugby, swimming and many other IX and junior teams both male and female where applicable and the staff are awesome(mainly)

Intense school trips the Hockey, Football and Netball IX went to Barbados for 2 weeks and this is a first for schools in Guernsey and it was amazing i got to go coz i'm so great at hockey (A)
