selby high school
when i first started selby high school in 2010 the school was really good and up until year 9 stayed as a good school and then we got a new assistant head teacher Mr Sinclair... and he brought in a number of new rules two of which are a form of public humiliation. he brought in the punishment of "bin duty" this is where a student is given a large bin bag and possibly a glove (if you are lucky) and they have to walk around the dinner hall and pick up the litter (which is a teachers job). he also brought in the rule that if you are even one minuet late you will get issued a little slip of paper the lesson before lunch and you will go and sit for 20 minuets doing absolutely nothing which is pointless. and if for any reason you don't receive that little slip of paper you end up stood on the stage for the whole lunch and the school say that they always make sure that the students stood on the stage get there lunch but i personally have been put on there and not had my lunch.
in the past few weeks or so i have received two or three threats from the school one from Mr Sinclair when he threatened to permanently exclude me for not wearing my tie! another from the deputy head teacher when he threatened to chain my bike up because he doesn't believe it is road legal! the third threat was when i got my e-cig confiscated after i reported it stolen they took it of me which was an infringement of my human rights as i am 16 and legally aloud to posses one then the school threatened to destroy it if it wasn't picked up by my parents.
overall over my time here at selby high school i have found that the school has got more and more pathetic as my time here goes on. i have also found that these past few months to a year they have been more focused on looking like a good school and appearing to be good than actually teaching us and actually being a good school. i know one kid got so fed up with the school he moved to barlby high and i also know a few others that have considered moving. and finally i feel that the school has gone down hill fairly rapidly and the rules have got increasingly more pathetic and more pointless as time goes on.
i strongly recommend that you do not let your son/daughter apply to this school
selby high school approached me and told me to remove the review as they do not want the public to know what they are truly like and how they actually treat students because they get such good ofsted reports but that is not a true reflection of the school as it is easy to make the school seem good for a day. and it is really easy for teachers to make there lessons really good for one day.
Your trying to run a private school which is not working, Your adding new rules to the school which is making us all unhappy and we all go home in a bad mood from the day we have had.
Selby High school use to be a good place to work but now its nothing but a joke.
Get rid of mr sinclair and it would be such a happier place for students.
and school is ment to be the best time of your life and it is miserable
