I am a student at this school and I'm not going to lie about anything some teachers at this school…read moreneed to go they are rude and don't have the correct training to deal with students that have special needs (autism, adhd). Some students are being ignored by staff when trying to speak up when they are being bullied, when you go into the main cafeteria you can look through a window to a little space that has a tree and a bench you may think the bench is for a soldier since the area is covered in poppies students have made but it's for a student that committed because of them being bullied and didn't get any help. For food it is overpriced and in the burger bar they don't sell burgers they sell paninis that give you food poisoning, everyone gets a £5 limit on spending on food per day which is not enough to get a decent lunch. They say students first as their motto but that's wrong it's grades first they want people to have perfect GCSEs and perfect behaviour to be invited to the year 11 prom which some students will struggle for since they don't get any work done because of the teachers not helping them. Another problem is homework, there is too much, some teachers expect students to bring in homework perfectly on time of given on paper and not lost as they go through school as it sits in their blazers, and they say if it's online homework " your generation is always on your phones so why don't you do your homework while on it" or " it only takes 15 mins why haven't you done it" and they think students will attend homework club when the students probably have siblings they need to look after and pick up from school while parents are at work. Another issue is students not having an allocated time to go on their phones, some students have to stay in contact with some people like therapists, family members otherwise they won't be able to cope in the loud, unorganised place, this rule is making students panic more and try to hide their phones and go on them during anytime that they get to be at ease, if they get caught they will have it taken away for a day and the parents can pick it up at the end of the day period which is technically illegal since the law states if you do not own the property you do not have the right to take it unless you have permission this means that parents can sue the school for taking their child's phone away without permission of the person who bought the phone. Overall outsold academy Hindley (formerly Hindley high) is getting 2 stars for it being like a prison where if you mess up the slightest you get into a lot of trouble.

This is a local primary school, which has around 240 pupils. It has a nice village feel to it and…read morehas recently improved it's facilities, such as PE equipment, laptop computers, library, extended playground etc. Alot of the money was in part raised by the fundraising society Friends of St.James. The teachers and staff are friendly and it does quite well in the league tables - if you are interested in that type of thing. It has also extended it's working day, offering many after school activities - such as netball, football, rounders, band, multi-games to name a few. There is even an aerobics lesson available before school on one day of the week. It has a school band and offers music lesson, indeed this is one of it's strengths, with the school doing well in local competitions. There is also a Playgroup which is open on the school grounds, which offers before and after school care. By the way, school dinners are healthy and taste great, a credit to the canteen staff. The only drawback is parking is only available on side streets and it can become congested - although the school does encourage children to walk to school.
Fabulous school with great facilities!…read more There's a nursery, infant school and junior school with fantastic staff. from sports days, to choir, to painting- there is a huge range of creative aspects to the curriculum! As well as regular trips to the local swimming baths and other day trips such as the central library and Llandudno! I would wholeheartedly send my children there- if I had any! Have loved working here and will miss it when I'm gone- friendly and welcoming place to work!
St John's primary school is tucked away behind the burgeoning St Edmund's and St Thomas'. While it…read moreis much smaller, St John's is compact, it offers all the essential teaching requirements in a modern building,and the school grounds are more than adequate. Moreover, the scale of the school demands an intimate student/teacher relationship and enables relationships to build throughout the school life of the child. There are lots of extra curricular activities available here: dance and drama; athletics, netball and cricket, calligraphy and Wayfarers Bible activities amongst others.
Dalton Ellis is the most picturesque set of university halls in the Manchester catalogue. Situated…read morea ten minute walk from the university behind Victoria park, Dalton Ellis are a set of beautiful old buildings that are really too nice for student accommodation. Around 5 students share a bathroom and toilet, as well as a small kitchenette, which makes the ratio of heads to showers and hobs much better than elsewhere. They also have all the standard facilities including wireless broadband internet, a bike shed and a laundry. The common rooms and old and beautiful with really old leather-bound books and the surrounding leafy areas are definitely the highlight. Its also close to The Rampant Lion pub, an excellent watering hole. If grimy studentville Fallowfield isn't your thing then Dalton Ellis is probably the perfect halls for you.

Honestly, I know how much I hate the Vicy Park's dessertation, but this place just looks wow! Now, coming to the technicalities, they are mostly packed with single washbasin rooms and also a small number of en suite rooms. On average 5 students share bathroom and toilet facilities. There is also a small kitchenette area for the preparation of snacks and light meal. Facilities include a library, a stage, and netball, tennis and squash courts. These Halls are catered and like all catered halls, if you're in time, you're in for a good meal! If not, oh well, you just missed some good pippin' hot food! Anyhow, a great place to meet new people and leisure around as well. You can only imagine what this place would be like in spring! P*R*E*T*T*Y!

I can't comment on it as a school but as an adult learning environment it's amazing. The courses are extremely reasonable and there's a huge range to choose from. You have to enrol so you do have to provide details about yourself, you can't just turn up. Because it's a school it has very good parking and accessibility and it's always clean, even the toilets. The adult education manager is also fab; very helpful! It's a bit hard to spot from the road but there are signs.

The teachers and office staff are amazing they seem to really care about the students and are always willing to go out of the way to help and ask you how things are going and check your not struggling.

Xaverian College...what a fantastic place…read more This is where I actually became who I am today. I know that sounds silly but this college is fantastic. I learnt more here in two years than I did in five years at high school. The teachers here really bring you out of yourself, they actually care about the students, not just about the grades. I'm still in touch with most of my tutors now, they care what I've been up to since I left and always get in touch to congratulate me on anything I achieve. The range of subjects is vast and the campus keeps getting bigger and better. It's much different to most other colleges as the buildings are spread right out although not too far so you can still walk to all of them comfortably. It's so different to school, everyone is treated as an adult and it was such a good grounding before university, I don't think I'd have been half as prepared for uni if it wasn't for Xaverian.
5 stars for amazing facilities! I'm part of the first years to go through Birley on my pgce and te…read morefacilities are just 2nd to none! I can only speak for the music department, but we've had first play on everything from state of the art jamhubs, ukulele classes, African drumming with brand new djembes- not to mention the large work stations with new touch screen computers! The tutors are fantastic and are always on hand for advice and a shoulder to cry on when lessons go wrong! The cafe is fab if a little expensive, the canteen serves amazing street food, soups, main meals, breakfasts, sandwiches, drinks and cakes! Though the one downside to it is that it's too small! Every lunchtime there is a crush to pay and choose food- only bad point!

This is a secondry school located on the fairway in offerton. I went to school here and I thought…read moreit was pretty good. The teachers are friendly and some will go out of their way to help students get better grades. There are three school buildings vernon curzon and woodbank curzon isnt bad but the other two look really old and could do with a revamp. There are lots of extra activites for pupils to take part in outside of school time such as sports clubs,homework clubs chess clubs,choir and many more. There is a lot of walking around involved when you go to this school as you have to walk inbetween the buildings a lot. I managed to get 11 GCSE's grades A-C here so it cant be bad. Oh, and the school dinners are lovely!
