Belmont Academy

OK school. Teachers are sound and up for a laugh but when it boils down to the real thing it's clear there is a sharp divide between the poorer and richer children. Children from economically deprived areas are at a disadvantage and the school does little to help this. If you are more affluent, from Alloway or Doonfoot etc then you'll do better. You'll also do better if you're a girl. School has good scran though.

Do not go here. It’s is horrible.

My personal experience with this school so far could be better. Many departments within the school I feel don’t support me and my learning requirements, when I speak up I feel as if I’m not listened to. Staff are also often which isn’t the best, but I know that is out with the schools control.

Such a horrible horrible school! Do not send your child here ever! The way that this school deals with bullying is disgusting, they would rather allow a child to goes as far as to attempting suicide then defusing the situation so that this doesn’t happen. The staff in charge are not fit for the roles they have, 0 support for pupils unless they’re filthy rich. Clear favouritism when it comes to senior pupils especially head girls. The food is disgusting and no options for vegans or dietary needs. The toilets in both female and male toilets are always blocked up and the communal toilets at the ends of corridors are constantly locked,blocked or trashed. Avoid this school at all costs.

How the school is currently dealing with corona Is honestly appalling compared to other schools with how time tables worked out and more homework with us all gathering in the same areas before we can get let in The school food is horrendous its has always been a pile of grease fat and oil with zero flavour at all the only edible thing at the cafeteria are things the school gets from outside sources
