im a 12 year old student in year 8 and i would say its a very very very good school i would love to recomend to send ur kids here the teachers are absolutley perfect here because i have really bad autism and mental helath and the teachers help u so so much.
Amazing school I would say some of the teachers are rude one science teacher call my friends a cow because it looked like she was chewing gum but she wasn’t and my friend cryed and English, maths, science, history feel like they aren’t taught probably as I feel I have not learnt that much

Pupils tend to set the tone, bullying, smoking, foul language, insulting behavior, vandalism, laziness.
When staff do report these issues they are usually ignored and the same pupils will be back the next day with no consequences. Senior staff will discard the reports so that the pupil's files appear positive.
Staff reporting bad behavior are seen as an inconvenience by senior staff and a threat to school's reputation.
Ofsted don't know what is happening as the worst the pupils are given absence during inspections.
Little supervision or guidance given to staff, so lazy staff are not monitored - new staff 'sink or swim'.
Dishonest staff will work on pupil's project work themselves to improve grades.
Lazy staff fail to set homework or monitor homework diaries.
Not so much an 'academy' as a holding centre for disruptive kids from the notorious local estates/area - Gipton, Halton Moor - try googling.......See 'Live leeds' for reviews of the area, Gipton, Halton Moor. Cross Gates, Whitkirk, Colton
Unfortunately this is apparently typical of Leeds schools according to supply teachers who may get to see the whole picture.
Hence the average score.
