St Matthew's RC High School Nuthurst Road, Moston, Manchester M40 0EW

"horrendous school, full of jobless people, half the children here should still be in year 5 for god sake! my child has not only learnt nothing, they have gotten dumber!! she was once a high flying student and was always the smartest in her classes to now being in set 3 and knowing less than the basics!! what also really worries me is the fact that they had a lock down due to somebody in the school having a knife, i am so scared for any parents that still send their children here!!"

"I honestly feel so bad for making my child go to this school, they have to go all the way from one building where they do P.E for two hours all the way up to third floor in a different building to rooms without air conditioning and windows that don’t open!!"

"They need to take away the school trips and spend the money on pens, air conditioning and windows that open. They also need to take off the shutters on the bathrooms as it is a basic human right to be allowed to go to the toilet!! What’s even worse is the teachers refuse to let them go to the bathrooms that they have keys to when they should be allowed to go to the toilet!! honestly disgraceful, never send your children here, i’d rather have my kids be home schooled which would mean me taking time off work so i’m unable to provide money for our family to get basic necessities."

"It's a cool school because some days we can use our phones and the dinner is In Special Day Free"

"I had to put one star as I HAD NO CHOICE I wouldn't give any stats after my experience. I came In for an interview before the summer and was offered a teacher of media role and was told I was the only media teacher there so all summer I had prepared projects for the lessons and when I went in this week I was told I am not the only media teacher but the role was given to a teacher with No media experience at all, and when I asked about this they said we thought we'd let her have an opportunity to learn the subject and teach it, as I was a media teacher they didnt consider me teaching it fully but moved me over to a ICt role which is again not my subject area. Not sure why the mix up is happening when things can run more smoothly and being more organised is what the school needs and to make correct decisions at the right time instead my time was wasted and again the deputy head asked me to go over the timetable with the other teacher to see how we can manage the timetable which isnt my job to do but for the seniors to organise. , very appalled by their lack of awareness and if they continue to be indifferent to the situation alot more staff will leave and the school can fail. But on the brightnote I have been offered a position elsewhere. I made the correct decision to leave. ."
