Glenmoor as an intuition of learning is alright, however one has to contend with 1000 teenaged girls with a vendetta against the headmaster and his regime. Between the school years 2012/13 and 2013/14, 20 teachers left, ripping the core out of the school. This has left many students disgruntled to say the least.

Also, while classes are kept single-sex, the campus is shared with Winton Arts and Media collage to create "The Federation". (Some girls refer to the joint schools as "Society of Winton And Glenmoor" or "SWAG") This means that if you wish for you daughter to be in a purely female student environment, have them apply to Bournemouth School for Girls.

Glenmoor used to be a school of solidarity; where the teachers and students didn't get on as much as the next school (well, maybe not Winton). From year 7 to year 10, behaviour became better and as a year group (2013 Leavers) until Mr B. Parnell arrived. While his general plan is good, it is disliked by the students, resulting in anarchy.

Overall, I rate the learning experience 3.5/5 and the social experience (which, no matter what any teacher says, is integral to any school experience) 2/5.

(If any Glenmoor staff is reading this, I am an ex-student and I have written this of my own volition.)
