Let me retract the Nazi comment, I do apologise about that, because whilst people are being hurt and oppressed in the school, they are still very much alive. And Prickle you are right, it is the students that you should feel sorry for, but the staff too need your support, because they do not get it from their employees at all. It has been said before, but people need to see beyond the smoke screen and understand the reality of this very serious situation. I will take my step back now and let the exam boards do what they need to do.

GCSE and AS levels were given out to students after they were forced to wait for hours and hours to receive them (only to be told the results could change at any point), they were only let in to get the results in groups of 2 or 3 and harassed and interrogated by senior staff to find out whether they had been in contact with other members of staff over the summer (clearly to work out if they were one of the MANY students who have written statements to the exam board about the cheating which happened in their examinations). The school went as far as checking students facebook friends and forced them to delete ex teachers, which let me make clear is in no way illegal, if you are an ex student and the teacher is an ex teacher, there is no problem. Importantly if this school is innocent it need not worry as it will know it is innocent, however it is not. I also question why members of staff who turned up to experience their students results which is NORMAL practice were turned away being told they were not allowed on site until 5th September, again is this the sign of an innocent school? I think not. Members of staff who have been given permission to go into the school to get personal belongings or other similar items have been followed by senior members of staff to their rooms and offices and then have had their bags etc searched. Why? Do they think staff are going to be bringing out incriminating evidence which will demonstrate to the boards that cheating in exams did happen? Innocent school? I think not. And finally may I just add, that if this school was innocent, why are the exam boards STILL investigating? Because...the school is guilty. I do hope, but really there is little hope of this, that the Chair of Governors gets some sense and learns to protect all of her staff, not just the man who makes their lives miserable. So for those of you who have withdrawn your children from attending the sixth form, I applaud you. You have just done the best thing you can for your child's future. Kingsdale school has some absolutely fantastic, in fact, outstanding teachers who remain there, but above these teachers is sheer evil and corruption which resembles something that people who lived in Nazi Germany might have experienced. I can only look back at this school and hope that those who are good get a swift getaway. I did.
