St Ursula's Convent School Reviews
1 (3 reviews)
Our daughter goes to this school and I couldn't be more disappointed in how the school has performed. Constant teacher strikes during 2023/24 - now pushing 20 days of strikes. The recent Ofsted rating of Requires Improvement is very apt, and fundamentally the senior leadership are responsible for low morale among teaching staff. I wouldn't recommend this school while the current senior leadership are in situ. The trajectory is still currently downwards and isn't about...
SLT bullies staff. Kids disrespectful and rude. Lost all it stood for the past 3 years Avoid. Avoid. Avoid
The school's ongoing challenges, including disruptive behavior, limited extracurriculars, and poor communication with parents, have significantly impacted the learning environment. However, the additional burden of frequent teacher strikes during the first term and the looming threat of more closures due to a teacher's suspension further exacerbate the instability, disrupting education and parental routines. The unresolved disputes between staff and administration compound existing issues, intensifying the overall strain on students, parents, and the school community.
