Alford Community Campus is an Alright school but there is a lot of bullying and such and I think the teachers treat special needs kids better than the usual ones like letting them go on walks and such. I also think some teachers are too hard on some of the kids for no reason. The food is alright but a bit expensive.
I personally love this school minus a few ups and downs. I'm currently in third year so have selected subjects for the upcoming year. I'm enjoying the curriculum and all the lessons. It's a much bigger school than my primary school and I have made a healthy group of friends.
The only issue I would really have with the school is, like many other schools, there is an issue with discrimination mainly towards queer students. The teachers and staff could be trained better to dealing with that sort of stuff, luckily the lgbtq+ group I attend at lunches is working with 4pillars (an lgbtq+ brand) to see if we can organise further training amd guidance.
The food is also a little expensive.
Other than that alford academy is a really school. :)
One thing I really like about it is that to help those who are having financial trouble, the school has set up a rack of second hand uniforms for the school, so those who can't afford a uniform, can grab what they need, and anyone can give their old uniforms back to be used again.
Overall good school. Some issues with queue jumpers not being punished, and an unnecessary ban on snowball fights, but aside from that, it’s a good school. There are additional issues with some students loudly using slurs in class and not being punished for it, but this is largely outweighed by some of Alford Academy’s positive qualities like the variety of sports equipment, and elective classes.
