    absolute crap

    this school is horrible. education system is brutal to students and they give lack of self-study sessions right before a mock exam happening, which prepares them less than it should be. students receive detentions for no proper reason, and teachers give them out before warnings, not following the set system for behaviour itself. absolute bullshit, this school is.

    Review

    As a student I must say this school is fantastic! You will see other reviews saying stuff like, "They give detentions for no reason". This happens very rarely and to get a detention you first have to receive multiple warnings. The education is outstanding, proved from the outstanding 75% percent 5+ success rate in the GCSE's. They also provide lots of activities and even more activities after school clubs. There is also lots of opportunities to contribute to the school such as being able to cre...

    This school is crap

    This school has unrealistic policies to follow and some of the teachers give detentions out for minor reasons such as not bringing in a piece of equipment like a ruler or reading book like what the hell are students not allowed to make mistakes or something? They act as if students aren't human and as if giving 30 minute detentions for minor reasons is nothing. Sometimes when you are late to school for something that is not even your fault such as traffic they punish you and do not listen and tell you to wake up earlier like how is waking up earlier gonna stop traffic?? This school and the teachers have trust issues in students which is not fair at all and they should have some understanding. Another thing is that lunch time should be longer then 30 minutes because half of lunch gets taken up by waiting in lines and some other student push in and the teachers DO NOT CARE!! Lunch time should be atleast 50 minutes because when you get your lunch its almost the end of lunch time and then the teachers rush you which doesnt leave enough time to eat when you get your food this is very unfair. Im very glad i got to leave this horrible school i feel bad for all the other students in this prision cell.

    Disappointed!!!

    Bulls*it!!! I've made an in-year application, twice!! One was last year, and now for Year 1. My child was number 6 in place, and after a week she was number 10. All because other applications were made and the others have siblings at the school. Isn't it supposed to be equal for everyone??? Or the other kids are somehow special?? It is equal rights for education for everyone.

    Thinking of removing my daughter from this school!

    I am a parent of an ina student and the way shes pictured isaac newton academy to me is not what I've expected! She was really excited to have her first day of ina but all that changed after a few months in. She was getting detentions as small as missing a pencil. The teachers just give out detentions like they're nothing which is a struggle for me being a single mum who works and also has to take out time to collect my 4 children from school. Another thing that I'm quite annoyed about is the short amount of time for lunch. The average time for lunch is usually 50 to 60 minutes and I know this as I used to be a supply teacher. I've spoken to other parents about this and all of them have the same negative thoughts so I do hope theres changes on that. Apart from this the food, education etc are 5 stars. I've taken out alot of my time to write this so I expect to be noticed Thankyou for taking your time to read this
