Isleworth & Syon School Ridgeway Road, Isleworth TW7 5LJ

"From my experience at this school currently it is a disgrace to all Schools. For example, when at the cantine you are met with a wastage of food as people get pushed around leading to them dropping the food they were currently holding. Furthermore, you will still get punished even if you are a victim of bullying, they teach you in assemblies to stand up for each other but if you do all you get in return is something like a yellow card (15 min detention) or a negative. In addition, they will scold you for having 5 negatives even if you have up to 700 positives. At last, they have a rule that if your device is seen, heard or used they will confiscate it thus taking it away, I suppose they think this will affect the child to push themselves more in studies but this just changes their attitude to learning and hate the teachers actions some of my peers even left this school for being such a disgrace. Be better, I&S."

"This school has the expectation of a animal treated without human rights such as bullying tollerance and behaviour and righty’s such as haircuts no style ONLY SIMPLE BLADE 2 I have been leafy speechless please to not attend this school unless our sons human rights are free I hope the headteacher sees this I am left in a vomited situation of rules plz change"

"Joke of a school. Their motto is a zero tolerance of bullying however, all the students are clowns running around. Some of their students have been involved in stabbings and robbery in past times. The people who keep their heads down aren't supported or recognised. They bang on about Mo Farrah being their biggest achievement but they do little to recognise all the other greats who have passed through their system. Even Mo's experience was terrible. Just because you do well at sport, it doesn't mean you should be forgotten about in all the other aspects of learning and the school could do with being more comprehensive in their educational approaches. It's the modern day so why is schooling here still carried out like it's the 50's? All the teachers with a strong moral compass seemed to have left because of the upper management vision. My son was shown a DVD of American history X by a sadistic english teacher. Bear in mind he was only 14 and the film is a strong x rated 18+. It's unnecessary and scarred him for life because there was no context to why it was being shown. When it was playing, the male english teacher just sat in the corner smirking to himself. They seem to churn out half baked idiots that are obsessed with football hooliganism and they fuel this backward ego driven culture of modern day rebels. Their Tech departments used to be some of the best but again due to lack of not controlling the rebel students, children's projects will be vandalised and trashed. Honestly if you want to save time just check out a different school because you won't get what you want here."

"As a student I do not personally like it here though the criteria is high my first year this one y7 is coming town end and I feel like bullying goes unchallenged if you tell pastoral they will give hours and hours of detention. The teachers just talk about kindness and if we 1 min late to am reg its 1 min after school negative points are 5 min after school aswell. Im going grammar now so... yeah. DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE."

"(Speaking as a previous student) Amazing establishment, teachers and facility period. I can genuinely speak on behalf of myself and the majority of my entire form from the early 2000's, that this school helped to shape us into better men. I find it shocking seeing any negative feedback made about the school, facilities or teachers at this school. The school was always a positive guide to moulding young men into the best possible human beings they could ever be. Weather your skill was academic, creative arts, or sports, Isleworth teachers would always give a supportive and personal helping hand to all students. Of course we all know 'Mo Farah attended the school and became one of the greatest Athletes Globally of all time. This motivates students and shows the power of good guidance and motivation. Years later myself and other colleagues still return to the school to work with students and host motivational talks. There will always be students who do not see eye to eye with teachers, but it was the teachers prerogative to show the value of respecting your elders and speaking in the correct manor when addressing a mentor. (I still find myself calling my teachers by their title and surname even in my late 20's) I earned very good grades at the end of my term at Syon and If I could go back in time, I would attend this school all over again and push myself even harder to achieve."
