Bad bad
They don’t help at all and the teachers throw chairs and scissors at pupils
Poor.
They don’t do much about bullying, the students have to get up early without enough time to have a proper breakfast, most go with a breakfast bar, they then have to wait 2 hours before they can eat properly then another two hours to eat again. They also aren’t always allowed to go to the toilet? They get told to go in between classes but 5 minutes isn’t enough time to leave class (which they sometimes get let out late), go to the toilet and then get to class while still being on time. Most students have no where to go to calm down during the school day because they can’t go to the learning hub. There’s something called the cube which is honestly just a torture chamber.
They are kept in all black until it reaches over 25° which is unfair. And telling students off for expressing themselves through hair colour, nails and badges? Really? It doesn’t look scruffy. It makes them look individual. If they can’t express themselves, they won’t be much in life and seriously, if students get distracted by hair or nails or makeup or even clothing (they don’t), that says something about the class. Not the student.

I’d rate my experience at Crispin School Academy as poor. I do not recommend this place for social outcasts due to the lack of punishment for bullying - many people I know have left Crispin with their mental health absolutely wrecked. Despite this, the staff tend to focus more on punishments for incorrect uniform or being thirty seconds late to class. Detentions are quickly handed out for either of these things, and many more.
Crispin almost killed me
I went here in year 7 and left after six months. I was severely bullied and the school did nothing about it. The teachers are just as bad as the bullies that they refuse to reprimand and should have their degree for teaching taken off of them. This school is so bad that even after I had left j struggled with mental health problems. 6 months is all it took for me realise just how horrendous this school really is and how it should be shut down.
Not good
Crispin is a horrible place to go to school. The subject teachers are okay when they turned up and when they chose not to spend half the lesson shouting at students trying to do their work. The support staff are awful. As a student they will either bully you, ignore you or try to push a friendship with them on you. Girls and boys pe lessons do not get given the same amount of attention and you’ll only be given any support in pe if you’re on the rugby or netball team, if not just go and walk around a field for an hour. The science and DT staff were good and ms keast was the best teacher there but then they got rid of her. Really really bad place and getting worse.
Very mixed bag.
All schools have ups and downs but Crispin school is a very very mixed bag. On one hand the teachers are mostly good, and the materials for the arts and technology department are fabulous, but on the other hand the new behaiviour policy is abysmal. You simply cannot expect anyone to always be on time or up to scratch with homrowrk, we are all human, so treat your pupils like they are, too.
Keep in mind that every person will have a completely different experience.

Best Experience I Could Ask For
Crispin was absolutely amazing and helped me grow so much as an individual. The teachers are so supportive and really dedicated to helping students achieve their full potential. Extracurricular opportunities at Crispin are great and allow students to develop soft skills as well as gaining the grades they need to progress to employment or further education. I had the best five years of my life there and cannot recommend the school enough to parents or prospective students.
Average school
Good enough, students aren't helped with bullying and there's too much pressure though
Crispin is great
Crispin school helped me really come out of my shell. It isn’t the best secondary school. But it is one of the best
crispin is awful.
awful. do not send your kids here. i repeat DONOT. caused me everlasting mental damage, the staff were ways horrible or not even there, causing important lessons to be not taught and covered vy a sub teacher who mever taught the right things, the receptionists were always rude, never letting me leave, the students were annoying and rude (i know they change but i feel like crispin is the place that attracts these kids) and overall made me want to die everyday i was there. dont send your children here.
