Awful school, children get treated like animal from some teaching staff. My daughter comes home unhappy and in distress after teaching staff shout at the whole of the class for petty stuff such as to be quiet. I won't be surprised if this school gets a bad ofstead report or has a teacher who has beaning caught abusing children. I have raised my concerns with the headteacher with no success. I have now moved my child to another school. I would not recommend this school.
