Avoid if your child is likely to get bullied

The school is only OK for those who can sail through - they are interested in results only and looking good. If your child has any academic issues or gets bullied they will not support and will deny there are problems. They do not effectively deal with bullying at all and you will be lucky to get a response if you report bullying. The victim will get blamed and taken out of class rather than actually dealing with the bullying issues. This is not just a one off theme and is repeated again and again. There are countless issues of bullying and they are ignored with the school preferring to maintain that they do not have a bullying problem at a recent open evening I attended for new intake. I had a child due to attend at the school but after what I know has happened to a young person at that school I would never send my child to that school under its current management.

Not meeting children's learning needs

Failing school, not fit for purpose. Had to pull my son out of year 10 due to learning needs not being met, bullying and poor communication from the school. Since starting a new school 6 months ago he is now thriving and his mental health has drastically improved.
I assumed Lincroft was a good seconday school due to its location in a decent area, but I was so wrong.

I would run from lincroft if I were you

It is like literally hell. The only reason it has a good rating bc whenever our schl is being watched over for like an ofsted report everyone puts on there goody pants. The food in the canteen is like not very well cooked, they have the silliest rules (such as u can’t walk through the main hall anymore 😭) and there’s teacher usually standing outside the toilets telling you when you get to go in. There’s more cover teachers then ACTUAL teachers and the teachers that have apparently got a degree in whatever subject they’re teaching they can’t even teach properly. The toilet r an absolute mess( like I’m sure there is every single virus in man kind found in those cubicles). Over all it’s a shit schl I can’t lie, I hate it there. like the students and the teachers r a pain in the right ass. Like dear I say Sharnbrook academy is better then that hell hole they have going on in there. They try crest a positive environment but I know for a fact that 98.5% of the students hate it there

Terrible

I HATE this school.NEVER send your kids there. They treat autistic pupils unfairly , teachers don’t even care about your mental health, you will get emails if you are off sick for ONE DAY saying you need to come into school they wouldn’t even care if u had a virus they will still tell you to come in, lots of bullying, spent money on unisex toilets wich nobody asked for or needed they just did it to look like a amazing school DONT BE FOOLED BY LINCROFT!!!

My honest review of Lincroft Academy

Lessons are boring, teachers are incompetent and incapable of controlling their pupils, most of the kids are completely unremarkable at best and completely obnoxious at worst. Their whole disciplinary system- wait there isn't one, they just make it up as they go along. Absolutely zero help for students with learning and/or behavioural difficulties because that would require effort on their part and they can't be bothered (they'd rather spend that money on nice new unisex toilets that nobody asked for, wanted or needed or they'd prefer to just line their own pockets instead as apparently it isn't enough to just receive a salary, you also have to embezzle funds at the same time. Students are seemingly permitted to blatantly perform acts that would be considered sexual harassment and/or assault anywhere outside of the school environment. Certain staff members, including one female HOY (Head of Year) are either LGBTphobic or simply don't care about LGBT students being subjected to abuse by others even when it happens right in front of them. Racism is also completely unchallenged by staff and often left to pupils to deal with it themselves which they subsequently get wrongly punished for. It is far too easy to get weapons inside of the school as in the past year alone I know of at least 3 incidents of blades being brought into the school, one of which was a knife, but they'd rather take completely harmless objects such as lighters off of pupils (but weirdly permit vapes and matches???). If I haven't made my point clear enough already, then just check the schools OFSTED report, all that has happened since the new Headmaster took over is a continuation in the decline of the standard of education the students are receiving, in the competence and professionalism of the staff they employ and a steady decline in care for the general school environment, if this isn't proof enough of the complete and utter lack of care for the school and its students, as well as proof of what a circus this place has turned into and how much of a clown the Headmaster is (as well as a large number of his staff are it must be said) then I don't know what is. So for the love of God, Allah, Santa Claus, The Force and whatever else you believe in, don't send your children there, if you have so much as a shred of respect, not even for them, but for yourself then I beg you not to do it. Thank you for taking the time to read my review and if you have any further questions regarding my judgement of the school and would like to know more then please feel free to email me at HaroldGWest123789@gmail.com and once again, thank you for your time.

Lincroft is a hellhole

It’s a horrible school which treats autistic people unfairly. The canteen is dreadful and the oak block is basically a cardboard box with stairs .
