    St Albans top notch

    Best school for a boy child although a bit pricey but all worth it. Academics and sports are top notch.

    Stay away!!!!

    I worked at St Albans College for a couple of years. This was the most toxic working environment I have ever worked in. Nepotism is shockingly common. No sign of their so-called christian ethos. An absolute disgusting environment to work in - and the majority of staff feel the same. They are just too afraid to speak up. Unless you are part of the “groupies”, stay away from this place as far as you can.

    Current headmaster and deputy headamster

    I didn't enjoy this school. I was treated very badly by the headmaster and deputy headmaster and they once threatened to not send out reports if i was unable to attend final assembly while the rules state that a school can not withold you from seeing your report

    Good school, but I question some of the values

    The school is really a fantastic place for a student to grow in, the facilities are top notch world class. The only problem I have had with the school is the current Headmaster we have. After he has replaced the greatest headmaster the school could ever have, many great teachers also started leaving the school. I really do believe that some of the students can be very toxic as they wish to just show off how much money each one has, it felt like I was in a very bragging society. Religion has always felt like it was pushed down our throats as it was compulsory to attend chapel 3 times a week. I will admit the food at the school was really great!, I really think the English department need to step up their game. Most of the time English classes feel quite unproductive. It also felt like there was too much pride in the students at the school, believing as if we were part of some Elite group but in reality it was just a school with LOTS of money and filled with kids show like to brag how much money their parents make. The sports at the school is really good. I think respect in the school has been on a heavy decline. I believe that because a student is from St. Albans he would tend to think he is better than others who is in other schools.
