This school is a disgrace especially fosse campus the don't care about basic needs they only care about detentions and uniforms they give you detentions for asking to go toilet. The toilets are full and yes I go fosse campus and this is true...they don't care about bullying at all they just scream at you for 1 mistake no wonder people move from this tip...and it's lead for me to have bad Bladder and etc

They care more about uniform than they do about learning.
Staff bully and shout at the children and they expect the children to just take it.
Teachers appear to make children hate subjects and blame the students for bad teaching. If an entire class fails a test then surely the teaching is the problem.
Literally half of every term is wasted on tests which means they have to rush through the actual teaching.

They also have a huge field but squeeze all of the children into a small space at lunch and break times. This does not encourage healthy lunch times and if anything encourages bullying as there isn't space to stay away from each other.

Reported bullying to the school multiple times and eventually had to get the police involved, when the police spoke to the school they stated that they had never heard about anything

Staff have stated that fitted clothing has implications which is concerning as no adult should be looking at a child and thinking about what "Implications" fitted clothes have especially not one that works in a school. Also very concerning to be teaching impressionable children that clothing has any implications.

Poor staff and poor management equaling a poor student experience and burnt out miserable children. I don't know how they pass Ofsted checks.

I don't know what I did to these kids but they absolutely butcher my ego and self esteem to the ground. Also I cant switch schools so I think when I finish year 11 I'll be a husk of a former human being. (Edit after 1 year) I got crow to 1k trophies!!1!1!1. Mastery is hard though

This school is most certainly NOT built for people who are neurodivergent or suffer from mental health issues. Even though I do the online school now, I still find myself struggling to keep up with the work, and experience a number of phases of being burnt out. I also want to add on the fact I experienced school trauma here for 3 years, which is most definitely another cause in my lack of skills in certain areas.

Fullhurst, A place of neverending anxiety. It's rare to find a happy person there. Each student feels trapped in there, tormented by teachers screaming at the top of their lungs at them for the silliest reasons. People arrive at this place for the first time expecting it to be a great school as it claims to be on advertisements posters and books... and the same people come out of Year 11...Exhausted.Drained. Completely changed. Fullhurst is a trap that hides its horrible factors from inspectors. They say they're a great school, but that's all a fabricated and pathological lie. Strict teachers, strict rules. I'd have to witness arguing and screaming with a side of loud unexpected noises everyday. The angry screaming coming from teachers and students left and right were never directed towards me but it still massively traumatized me. I could barely take it. I'd feel myself going more and more insane each week, just desperately wanting to get away from such a digusting building. Fullhurst teachers and staff never care about their students' mental health enough. All they care about is passing exam scores and high gcse marks. Nothing more. They try to act like they care about anything else but they clearly fail to because their constant focus is allways on misbehaving students. You do sometnig wrong once even if you didn't mean it? No teacher ever sees you as the same person again. No trust around you. The school is quite restrictive too. They refuse to let most students go toilet during the lesson. Sometimes even when the said student has a toilet pass. Now, I'm aware that there's misbehaving students but thats no excuse for teachers to be rude to them all the time. There's times where a "bad" student tries to behave and is struggling. But most teachers see that struggle as attention seeking and bratty. They don't try the help the student. They just make them feel worse by belittling them everytime their focus is on something else for a single second. All student deserve respect and care, even if they misbehave. All the staff members allways look very angry as if they hate each and every student there and want to rudely scream at them all like the horrible adult they are. Most staff at that dreaded school don't deserve their job in that building. They most certainly don't have the mental stability for it. Staff members allways encourage us to speak up about things we worry and cry about anywhere possible but when we finally do they're scolded for it and forced to stop. Even if that student is crying for help, no teacher does enough about it. A student wants to talk about their opinion on the school online? The video/post is found quickly and the person is immediately confronted about and left with no choice but to either take down the video or be punished. No questions asked in reguards to what the child said in the video. They ignore it all. They ignore each and every student's pain and attempts to speak out about their sickening experiences at Fullhurst. They don't care, and never will. I do hope that revolting excuse of a school building gets shutdown one day. It deserves it.

Many complaints against the school, from hygiene concerns, safety of my children in the environments and improper measures for the subjects they provide.
I've been sent video recordings by my children with how they handle food served to students; no gloves or concern for hygiene with them handling different meats with the same utensils despite being halal or vegetarian options, that are now spoiled.
My children are also scared to use the bathrooms due to the constant harassment and unruly behaviour from other students smoking, vaping or causing grief for those who simply want to use the facilities (by throwing wet paper towels into their cubicles or by trying to break the locks off).
Also, for lessons such as science, my son was lightly burnt around his wrists due to safety equipment not being used during a teacher demonstration, causing flames to spread onto his blazer! The school did not take any responsibility for this other than informing me of the "accident", and will not respond to my concerns regarding it.

If you are looking to send your children to this school, please think again as I am impatiently trying to transfer them with little success due to the toxic environment which will inhibit any of their confidence or love for learning.

Horrible place!!! Do not come here! I am now at winstanley and when I used to be in fullhurst it was horrible. Teachers wouldn’t let you go to the toilets at lunch but when u ask in lesson they said “you should’ve went at lunch” when I eventually go to the toilets it’s horrid. Toilet paper is everywhere, children smoking and vaping and kicking the doors, breaking the locks, throwing wet toilet paper at you and calling you horrible names. Everyone here is so rude and when ur not a chav or popular people treat you like horrid. Teachers don’t even teach u properly! When u get bullied no one does nothing about it!!
