Copley Academy

This school is a disgrace the teachers are awful the schools classrooms are always freezing the bullying is uncontrollable and nothing gets dealt with I've been to the school every other day with the same b***s*** being said nothing gets done. Theirs no support for students with special needs / ehcps they just get pushed to one side to be fair theirs no support for any students the amount of parents I have spoken to have all said the same thing the students mental health has rapidly risen their ofsted really do need to step up their game do they really think on inspection that that's how the school is run on a daily basis ? It's all just a front the school need closing down for the por students sakes. Stay well clear of this s**t show of a school

I currently go this school it’s awful the teachers don’t care about mental health or when a child is unwell they prioritise attendance over health. They don’t care about bullying they say they will talk to the other student/students (they don’t) and they tell u to ignore it even though most of the time it’s awful things that gets spread and 99% of the time it isn’t true. Most of the time teachers just shout at you for no reason even if your doing not but you have to stay quiet because they’re the adult and your the child. The food is awful the gravy is like water and the pasta has loads of water in it I have been sick loads of times due to the school food. The uniform is uncomfortable and you get in trouble for the smallest of things like jewellery or nails or lashes etc ( don’t know how it affects mine or my piers work) I have not learnt much since I have joined the school I don’t understand science at all and I’ve been doing the same thing in English since I joined (but different subjects) maths never changes it’s always the same the toilets are never clean and always have drink cartons in there and they always smell. You have to wait for a member of SLT to respond to and email just so you can go toilet(most of the time SLT is busy and don’t reply ) or some teachers just say no unless you have a toilet pass then they have no choice to let you go. You can’t speak to your parents when you need to as you get your phone taken off of you until your parents/guardian can get it (some can’t get to the school to get it so the phone is sometimes kept overnight even though it’s needed for your journey home or incase something happens) the classrooms always smell and are cold. We aren’t allowed to turn lights off even if we have a mind grain or headache. Most of the teachers can’t teach they just shout at us, send us out or stand/sit there and do nothing. They give us too much homework like we do enough work at school then I have to come home and do more they’re basically trying to take away peoples free time. We get 30 min dets for being 1/2 mins late it’s a joke I would understand if we were 30 mins late but we’re not and even if we give a good enough reason then we still have to do the det like they’re trying to take up all of your time it’s not fair I just want to go home and chill but I can’t I have to make my whole life about school they even give out homework for the holidays (especially Christmas). Some teachers have said to students they will fail they’re GCSEs and get nowhere in life. It’s so draining to go to that school.

THIS SCHOOL IS A WRECK TO SOCIETY, I SENT MY CHILD HERE AND THEY DIDNT LET MY CHILD GO TO THE TOILET MY CHILD WAS CRYING AT THIS INCIDENT.TEACHERS ALWAYS GRABBING STUDENTS AND SCREAMING IN THEIR FACES,SEN DEPARTMENT IS TERRIBLE FAILING TO SEND INFO OFF. NO CONTROL OVER STUDENTS.MANY SUPLIES WHO CANT SPEAK THE LANGUAGE CLEARLY,TEACHERS TARGETTING PUPILS WITH NEEDS AND SEARCHING THEM FOR NO REASON. THE FOOD GAVE MY CHILD SALMONELA AND IS REFUSED FOOD AT TIMES HE IS VERY UNHAPPY HERE.

Worst school you could ever send your kids to the teachers have no manners wat so ever they tell children there not going to get far in life witch as a school they should be encouraging you to be the best of your ability, they allow bullying, they lie to parents wen an incident takes place makin the children look like the bad ones,they put your children in isolation for a full day for not having a tie witch your not going to school to be best dressed your there for your education there more arsed about what you wear and what you look like than your education the teachers can’t even seem to keep a class silent they just stand there and wait they make your child wait if they need to use the bathroom and the hygiene is so bad

Shocking school took my child out

I currently attend Copley and I don’t think it’s that bad !! Everyone is friendly and teachers are super helpful. Although there’s been a lot of management changes, I think it’s fair to say standards are increasing. My grades are very high and suit my standards.
