Kingsthorpe College

I agree with the poster below me! The canteen really is crap! But the rest of this school is great

This a good school, the building and facilities are new and a good environment for your child.

I've sent my kids there and the teachers are not good. My son said he got bullied here

It's really bad place for people with mental problems like me,the teachers nor school doesn't support the students and the food at canteen is quite expensive,going to lesson with a limit of about 5 minutes is impossible when there are little to no space on staircases and corridors,the punishments are not fair and not reasonable (taking food time of someone break and lunch and taking their only time away to eat is not fair at all!) The school recently got new rules which only make the experience worse than it is,for example: 'uniform cards' ...self explanatory really,but when staff do ask you to give them the card you sometime get an unreasonable note which can lead to after school detention and since it's getting dark earlier it's very dangerous for people who walk home to be walking home in the dark.As a person who is taking the bus I think the way teachers 'care' for students safety around the buses is unbelievable too! Someone got injured because of a bus few weeks back,it was around the member of staff! The lessons are sometimes taken over by cover teachers (it's understandable I guess) but the cover teachers that are being hired are terrible! The cover I had for 2 weeks nearly everyday didn't do completely nothing other than sit at his desk and that's it,he didn't even try to teach! About few months ago there was a rule about standing in front of a gate at 8:15, it's freezing cold outside and student have to stay outside and wait! Why not open gates again?! Also bullying! The head and teachers do not give one damn about someone bullying someone! Putting someone in fine won't fix the problem will it?! I got mentally and physically bullied (still am) but noone does nothing about it other than give someone a C2 which is nothing! That's not even all but this list of bad things is long enough for people to understand that it's a bad place to leave their children!
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL!

-year 10 E.M-

Great place to send your kids, with supportive and friendly teachers, speaking as a former student myself. However improvements could be made, minor things like the canteen. Overall a great experience for me.

*After establishing strict phone prohibition:* residential areas are left in ruins after numerous acts of gang violence and radnor fizz polution. eventually there was a food supply shortage due to people stealing cookies from the canteen, only librarians were fed regularly and the lower classes were given two food stamps a week. Conference were held in secret behind the old IEU because there were no CCTV cameras there. The conclave decided on an uprising and allied with foreign civilisations. they managed to overthrow their oppressors and split up into two factions; P side and G side. I'll begin with P side. Governed by Dhilan Patel who was voted in via a democratic electoral system. he was a communist and owned all property in his district and in return he gave his people cheese and bean paninis. Over in G side, it was a Capitalist government and lead by a man named "Dean", no one knew his second name but his people loved him, including me, he was always there to lend a hand. Dhilan was envious of dean since he had a greater economy and a better military. He sent his best assassins, trained in the arts of food-technology, to kill Dean. After news of Deans death spread through the whole of G side, the Faction evolved into pure Anarchy and I had no choice but to flee far away on horseback. The following night I am met with the ghost of Dean, he leaves me ten cables in his legacy and tells me to restore the peace inside KC. I need you're help, together we shall triumph. As KC's unoriginal motto says, "anything is possible". ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

UPDATE:Year 2, Day 35: After two years of tyranny and famine the savage rein of lord Dhilan Patels dictatorship is coming to a end. After all after all hope was lost and the last remains of the rebellion began to wither away. He came in our time of need. Our lord, our savoir Fhami Ally Games. We had never seen anyone with the skills this warrior possessed. Not only was he incredibly gifted in single and dual hand cheese and bean panini combat but he also possessed the will to FIGHT to TAKE back what rightfully his. OUR HOMELAND. With just his spirit and skill he single handedly reignited the revolution . After months of heavy fighting and the illegal use of chemical randor fizz warfare, dhilan Patel was finally brought down in the field of combat. Our school rejoiced as we had entered a new era of peace and prosperity. Little did we know our new ruler Fhami Ally Games had dark and evil plans in store for our nation. Wait they are coming! I cant talk anymore, if i survive this ordeal i will post another update.... long live KC

personally i don't like the rules,I bring a lock and they classify it as a weapon 😐
