Heathcote School & Science College

I had the worst 5 years of my life at this school. They did not care I had ADHD and when I was easily distracted they would constantly punish me and ruin my mental health. They were absolute bullies, hitting me with endless HARSH punishments for small things such as not knowing what to do accusing me of not listening when I had ADHD. This school isolated me from every other child as if I was a wild animal, and they completely ruined my childhood. The teachers here did not like me, favourited other students over me, and would constantly bully me and isolate me, even telling other students not to hang around with me and would even PUNISH students for hanging around with me. They constantly took me out of classes due to my ADHD causing me to fall behind in my grades. They banned me from so many school trips, purposely made me feel left out and literally tortured me causing havoc on my mental health. The teachers with authority here such as the head of year teachers, assistant headteachers, deputy head, etc would literally SCREAM in my face instead of calmly sorting out any situation. The headteacher Ms Cozens was also racist towards me saying my skin is too yellow and accused me of taking drugs!!!! I would go to the gym so posted gym photos on social media and the teachers would accuse me of taking STEROIDS as a 14 year old kid!!!! My life in this school was absolute hell. The things this school did to my childhood has stayed with me and I am now 20, and it will stay with me for life. I will never forgive them. No child, especially one with mental disabilities, should suffer how I suffered in this unprofessional school with bullying teachers. AVOID THIS SCHOOL AT ALL COSTS IF YOU CARE ABOUT THE MENTAL HEALTH OF YOUR CHILD.
