How we keep it fair, and keep you safe

Read before publishing

A person checks every review, question and answer against our guidelines. Nothing goes up automatically.

Anonymous by design

No names, no accounts, and only your role and the year you left are shown. We keep as little as possible.

Nobody pays

Schools can't pay to remove or change reviews, and we never pay or reward anyone for a review.

Complaints taken seriously

Anything can be reported. We aim to deal with urgent complaints within 48 hours.
