This is such a terrible school. Students are very rude and disrespectful. The teachers however are worse. They are very arrogant and unprofessional which I found very concerning during school settings as a parent. Some in particular make awful remarks based on students 'appearances' and 'disabilities' which I believe is not a desirable or essential trait to have as a teacher. This is talked about a lot yet no one has done anything. There needs...
A terrible school to be in. Students are really rude and disrespectful. The teachers however are even worse. They are irresponsible and unprofessional which I find very disturbing in a school environment as a parent. Teachers would often make remarks about peoples appearances, their disabilities, and punish those who aren't favoured by them. This is already talked about yet no one has done anything. Needs to stop immediately.
My son has been bullied for the past 3 months, Kings leadership have advised for us to do a in year transfer as its easier for my son to move than to deal with the bullies. Therefore we have been let down by this school system
