Great School!
I have been to many school as a supply teacher, believe me when I say St Joseph’s is one of the best schools in the North East. Their students are generally well mannered, the learning structure of the school is solid, and their staffs are warm and friendly. I wouldn’t change a thing!
School
Think twice before sending your child here
If I could give this place a 0 star I would words can’t quite sum up the environment in this school mental health is treat with complete disregard new management has made this worse , days genuinely seem like years in that place it has slowly become my least favourite place in the world as students can’t express themselves can’t study in the way they want to and more importantly cannot utilise the toilet without a pass that quote in itself is something I never thought I’d have to say and then when you manage to get past many of layers of security to the toilet your met with a place even more grim than the school itself graffiti on walls toilet paper on walls and a disgraceful stench needless to mention that no toilet doors lock as all locks are broken oh and also once your time is done and that bell chimes think twice before leaving as your almost guaranteed to be in for another hour of the hellhole due to so called step leaning (solitary room in which you have to do more learning even if your grades are high)
st josephs cathoilc academy
i was in this school from year seven till year 9 they give no support whatsoever for mental health or bullying. all lessons are distrupted and teachers dont actually like to teach. when people such as ofsted come in all children that are known to cause trouble are but in behaviour support even if done nothing wrong. dinner ladys are disrespectful and abuse there power and overall respect for the pupils is terrible we are treat like we have no rights whatsoever.
Absolute fucking shithole
I was bullied all throughout year 7 I went to the school and they did nothing my head of house refused to talk to my parents and I told them about my self harm and showed them and they went it’s not bad you will be fine BUT there was cuts all over and they were very deep and you could pull the skin apart
This school is very bad
This school has no help for the children in anyway whatsoever. Bullying is a big thing that happens and our teachers couldnt care about it. I'm a student at at Joseph's and I'm being bullied every day I struggle with mental health and I have autism but no one cares. The teacher are selfish and rude. Do not go here it's a horrible place and a absolute s**thole
DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE
I am a teacher at St Joseph's and a mother of 3.
Do not send your children to this school!
The school has 70% great staff. However, management is weak and very little support is given. Pupils that attend St Joseph's are generally insolent with a disregard for education and respect. Several times PER DAY I bear witness to hate, racism, homophobia and xenophobia. Diversity is low in staff and pupils and it shows in the attitudes of the majority of pupils and a small group of staff.
Bullying is another problem and for whatever reason the school seem incapable of handling it.
Management at very top prioritise a catholic education and enrichment above a practical education and respect for equality.
I believe St Joseph's is a toxic place to send your child, despite having generally good facilities and staff.

Very poor
Allow a toxic environment where mental health is ignored and support for pupils is in very very short supply.
Appalling
Toxic environment, generally quite friendly teachers who care somewhat about grades etc. but absolutely no support for mental health, or bullying issues within the school. Hateful pupils with high levels of racism and homophobia prevalent within school society.
it’s just a bad school ngl
they don’t care ab the kids mental health, sanitation isn’t good (never soap in the soap dispensers) teachers are too strict and can be rude, they give codes out for the littlest things. my friend once got sent out of a lesson because they were explaining to the teacher that they have adhd, idk about you but i find that disgusting. bullying is an issue and the teachers make no effort to stop it.
Wouldn’t recommend
No support for students with mental health
