DISGUSTING SMELLY SCHOOL WITH LIARS, AND BAD TEACHERS!!!!!! AND BAD ADMINISTRATORS! THEY ARE VERY BAD AT HANDLING ISSUES, THEY DO NOT GIVE FAIR OPPORTUNITY WHEN KIDS ARE IN TROUBLE, BULLYING IS A HUGE ISSUE DUE TO THEIR LACK OF TAKING CARE OF PROBLEMS! THEY TELL YOU THINGS TO MAKE YOU EXCITED AND GET PREPARED TO GO TO THIS SCHOOL, BUT THEY JUST OUTRIGHT LIE TO YOU ABOUT WHAT THEY PROMISE YOU! THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE PARENT'S OPINION, LET ALONE THE STUDENTS OPINION, EVEN IF THE PARENTS AND STUDENTS ARE BLATANTLY IN THE RIGHT!

I have messaged the school a number of times regarding issues that I have had. Seeing as the school is very close to where I live and I do not drive anymore due to ill health, I felt it reasonable to contact this school in the first instance. Not only am I a published author, but I am also a resolute campaigner on a number of issues. I even have a background in education, before other issues intervened. I offer help & support to the Labour MP, Ian Byrne and his wonderful REAL TRUTH LEGACY PROJECT and his desire for the Hillsborough Tragedy being placed on the National Curriculum. This is an ongoing fight. Like Ian Byrne, I am a Hillsborough Survivor, which is Britain's worst ever sporting disaster. I have also battled PTSD, and written two books on Hillsborough. To talk about this major tragedy is key for young people to know about what happened on that dark day, and since. Sadly, Sir John Thursby do not seem inclined to make contact with me. Not even a returning email, or a phone call. Absolutely shocking. I can fully understand other reviewers frustrations with the school, given their experiences.

There needs to be some action taken, and some kind of desire to rid the school of this blind ignorance.

They don't take care of you if you don't feel well and they bang on your door if you don't come even though you are really ill

Even though it's been years since I left Sir John Thursby, I feel like I need to share my experience. Most staff played favouritism. My year was full of bullies. Even though some staff members knew that I was a victim of bullying, they chose not to take action. Come on I was given a medal of being the most annoying at the end for year 11. I wish I could re due my time at high school and stand up for myself because no one else would. Here is a message to those that get bullied, stand up and defend yourselves. Don't let the bullies win. The staff don't take severe act nor do the the bullies stop. A few staff members were amazing and understanding. If you have anyone that's by your side, tell to them cause sometimes bullies take it too far and you need an adult at times. I was bullied for 5 years at this school and I honestly hated my years at high school. It affected my studying and grades. Teachers need to be supporting and understanding and don't turn a blind eye to those that need help!!. I'm a stronger person now but I do wish I had the help I needed back then.
