Avoid this school at all costs.
very good school
really good, teachers there are really top quality.
Terrible school
My time here was deeply unsatisfactory. The disinterested teachers, outdated curriculum, inadequate facilities, and poor administration made it challenging to thrive academically. I would not recommend this school.
Yh not great
Yeah definitely not great. Have been a student here for a while and bullying issues have not always been their strong point. The education they offer isn't the best either.
They do nothing
This is my personal story
To start of with it was really good school but like at every school there would be a few fights and the school did nothing and when I went though something I told the school and they did absolutely nothing it got so bad I had to leave so then my mum wanted to get in contact with are school pc and they didn’t even tell him and the school told my mum she was be dramatic when they didn’t get in contact with her when I was threatened with a knife and jumped on

Decent
In terms of the academics and studying atmosphere, the school is great. However, since I’ve started the school, the school struggles to take issues, such as racism and bullying seriously. Since my time being at the Academy, I’ve had multiple struggles with bullying and racism that teachers have not cared about making it their priority to resolve. The issue of racism within the school has been an increasing problem since I started here and I hope for the sake of the school, the problems are better tackled, if at all.
Excellent!
School is amazing! Helped me rebuild my life and get me out of a dark place. Cannot fault them! By far the best secondary school in the area. Parents of children who are going into senior school, please have a look at Drapers’ and the opportunities they provide! :)
