Ark Dickens Primary Academy

This school is just bad. As someone who has been a year 6 student i can say the way I have been bullied. Some of the teachers are just bad. I have like 5 favourites. They literally try to make the school look great. But no. They’re not even TRYING with the food. The jacket potato is boiling hot and the cheese is cold. This is the food i had for like 4-5 years. The amount of bullying there is. Even the teachers bully you. The french teacher mocked me. She had favourites. In the middle of lessons she would talk to her favourites about lipstick and then tell everyone to be quiet. I hate almost all of the teachers. They literally forced us how and where babies come from in Year Six. Totally unacceptable. I was 10 years old. Imagine a 10 year old learning all that useless information. Anyway DO NOT let your child come to this school if you want your kids to stay healthy and not be mentally challenged.

in year 6 I got bullied very badly and I got bullied so bad the teachers wouldn’t believe me and would stick up for the girls. my younger sister got bullied and the teachers wouldn’t believe did nothing about it. same as me. they also have VERY strict pe kit policy and if you wear big logos, stripy clothes or anything either than the pe kit you get detention for 6 minutes if you’re year 5 or year 6. this teacher mr Clarke used to call me a liar in front of the whole class and take my lunch away just to talk to me? I can understand if I was doing it to her but if I’m being told off for reporting incidents then I don’t see why they have to be like this. I also wanted to add that this school does NOT allow polo shirts even though most primary schools allow them.

Absolutely terrible my. Child has been left traumatised by their needs not being met on a daily basis this has led to extreme anxiety and mental health
