Burnt Mill Academy

so bad teachers are unfair and racist towards lots of people

Gave me mental health issues so bad that I set both of my arms on fire. Some teachers are supportive while most are there to have a petty power trip by constantly putting students in isolation for the most petty of reasons.

Racist and narcissistic head and deputy head teachers. If you want the best for your kids - avoid like a plague !!! Ms Mcglashan and Mister Ellard !! Neurotic meets the Narcissist. Avoid avoid avoid

caused severe trauma, bullied by head of English, and bullied by school to the point of depression.

Their punishments are shit (no offence ig) and they have sp many run down rooms for example toilets next to c3/90 min/ isolation hall and the hall it’s self they years older than year 7 get a big playground however I feel bad for the year 7’s cos I’ve seen how squished it is and they also have to have dinner in the assembly hall there are SOOO MANY things like that that I prob don’t have enough space to write on here and they need to fix it also wtf why are you even locking the medical toilets fuck you to who ever thinks/thought that was ok what if a student was leaking on their period or abt to piss themselves and you have to go to the fucking pastoral and they either walk you around to try find another one then fail to fine one and take you to the fucking staff one or have to find a fucking key or shit like that what the actual fuck.

I write about this school as i sit within one of its god awful lessons with the decrepit head teacher barely hanging on to life. This school only cares about you grades which to be honest within itself isn't too awful but the way they preform it makes it so hard to believe that they have had students that get 9's on their gcse. As i have already said they only care about grades so everything else has been scraped from the bottom of the barrel such as the food, that within itself deserves a paragraph, the changing rooms,the teachers and how could i forget the classrooms. Let us start with the teachers, these so called "teachers" have no respect for you as they do not give you a chance to say your side of the story before they have to butt in. Now i would keep going but its almost 10:40 (the end of the lesson) so i must conclude that this school is nothing but utter horrid, vile crap, if you have a choice do NOT send your child here.

My son has SE Needs and I feel he is always supported

Working with children was rewarding, but some teachers are bullies. They bully certain kids to get them out of their school. They do not take kids mental health seriously. 1. Poor working conditions. 2. SLT don't listen. 3. Poor communication all round. 4. Detentions handed out for minor things, when communicating with the child can resolve the behaviour. 5. No clear structure of the role you are employed to do. 6. Treated like a dogs body. 7. Volume of work is unmanageable. 8. Serious problem with retention of their staff. 9. A broken system that is beyond repair. 10. Final word, don't work there.

Im in year 7. On the first day i was put in isolation for wearing acrylics its ridiculous i got no time to get to know anyone and sat in a room. With the skirtd they HAVE to be below the knees but with the shorts they can be as short as they want i wouldnt recommend this school if your thinking of changing schools or your in year 6

miss p in maths loves swearing at the students and trying to make them be quiet by slamming herself on their desk. Bad school for everything nd every staff is an trash teevhrt from user

The only reason this school gets any stars from me was not for anything they had done specifically merely out of the friendships that we forged over our five years stuck together in this abusive cesspit. Where do I start? I joint Burnt mill a happy go lucky kid, a tad bit free spirited but a good kid none the less. The staff didn’t like this they didn’t like kids expressing themselves they liked conformity and suppression of what makes you you. By the time the five year stay was done none of us could say we were truly happy or positively impacted by anything provided here. Bullying is spoken a lot by the staff if I remember correctly however they have no clue what bullying looks like let alone how to stop it when it happens they created such a toxic environment where popular kids were allowed to bully and harass others and be told nothing when it was caught. Big surprise considering I myself was bullied by the then head of technology department who made fun of my lisp not sure if he still holds that role but I would assume so. The school is simply a grade factory they wanted students to get good grades but the extreme workload expectations put on students coupled with the belittling of lower achieving students tells me they only wanted themselves to look good I won’t even go in to the horrific racism and homophobia I had seen first hand which was reported and not dealt with. do your kids a favour and find another school

guys save yourself and don’t go to burntmill? like don’t. teachers and students that go their are horrible . If your getting bullied then GOODLUCK cause your gonna need it cause teachers don’t care. All they care about is if the girls skirts are rolled up orrr if the ties are to short. LIKE HOW IS THAT IMPORTANT. HOWWW is that going to change how i learn. Noww lessons are just as bad, i’m not saying that every teacher is bad butttt most of them are. Don’t take a language YOU DONT NEED IT!!! even if they say you do, you don’t. everytime i pass by that school i feel so good that ive left. i finally feel free.

How to sum the school up. “Shithole” Attended this garbage years ago and I still get bad memories when passing by the building. If you get bullied there, good fucking luck because the teachers there won’t give a shit. That teacher in pastoral office? Mrs Williams? A fucking bitch. That attendance lady? Mrs Carol? Your average Karen. Had depression while attending and as bloody expected, the school doesn’t give a flying to fuck.
