If you're sending your child to this school, expect for them to be bullied and for the teachers to do nothing about it. In the 3 and a bit school years I spent here, I was verbally, physically, emotionally and cyber bullied by pupils relentlessly. Every time it was reported to teachers I was told to fill out a form and nothing else happened. My mum phone the school constantly asking for them to do something but they never did. Teachers laughed at my mum on the phone when she told them important information. This school left me with irreparable trauma and ruined education for me. When the bullying got so severe that my life was at risk, the police had to step in. Barking Abbey's response to that was for me to stay at home whilst the bullies carried on their normal lives at school. I eventually got so mentally unwell I had to leave education entirely because I was living in psychiatric hospitals. Barking Abbey is at fault for that. All of my friends from back then who went to that school also have trauma or awful memories from it either because of the teachers, the students or the overall environment. This school is awful. As a former student who left in early 2019, DON'T SEND YOUR CHILD HERE!!!!

As a current student that goes to this school, i guess it's okay. I'm doing my GCSEs and it as gotten better than the other reviews here. But the older and some of the younger students here will try to act higher then you by your looks, how u act, ur accent (if your not from around this area like me) and if they know how much money u have. If there are parents reading this, please don't try to pressure your kids to revise or finish they homework, they already get lots of pressure from the teachers, i would recommend talking to Mr Samuels, Miss Hawker, and/or Mr Robinson. They are nice teachers and will have things to recommend your kids to do if they have some trouble

I'm a pupil here and I love the school. It has a great educational curriculum and your are taught by highly quilified teachers who are firm but fair to ensure you learn happily. The school has a huge playground which consists of, in lower school, a large field for football and relaxing, a canteen block, there is also a large area of concrete with ping ping takes and space for students to bring equipment to play baseball. There are also 8 basketball hoops and a long jump area. This is a great school a very good school. -Year 8 student of barking abbey

I hate barking abbey . People are racist and teachers only help there own kind. The homework is hard and i always get detention for putting my hand up what school is that . I wouldnt recomend your child to go to this school .

I'm going here for year 7 and it was ok my brother goes to barking abbey and he is now in year 12 ( sixth form ) and he said it's not that bad. I liked the intake day they had it was soooo fun. Definitely recommend

I go here and ever since year 7,i have been bullied and harassed, I have been hit many times, but no teacher will help. Need help on homework? Good luck. Don't expect to have a great time

firstly, it is deadly weather temperatures and they still say you have to come in!!!!!!! that is actual abuse!! Most of the teachers have favourites too!!

If you are one of those people who want to study don't go there I go there myself and can say that it can be Dangerous!!

Rubbish School the motto here is you give and expect the best instead you get not the best the worst ANNOYING TEACHERS

The school is great! Especially the lower school if you like to do sports this is the good place for you

This school is amazing from the children to the teachers they are all pleasantand very kind …

Amazing place, please go, good school, good sixth form. You'll be making a good choice.

This skl is rude. Maths and science department is good. Everything else is poo

most of the student smoke and the teachers does nothing
