Teachers were the worst
This school doesn’t care for your mental health I was struggling with it with sh and very bad anxiety and all they did was tell me off for it and didn’t help me. And then they would constantly check me and if I refused I would be put into isolation until I let someone see. It was not nice and when they did a assembly on sh they pointed out what they would do like take care of you support you but they never did they said that to get the students to confess they did it. Another story is younger yr...

Staff aren't trained enough
Based on personal experience and the experiences of my sibling, I have found that the majority of the members of staff have not been trained correctly to handle nerodivergent students or students with learning disabilities. If a classroom gets too overwhelming, I will enter and autistic overload and will shut down. Many teachers are not trained to deal with this and it needs to be fixed before another student gets told off for struggling. Another point is the denial of dyslexia tests. I have ask...

True chantry
Chantry academy cares more about uniform then students racially abusing others, or attacking others for their sexuality. They do not care for your struggles only if your in lessons on time. Teachers will laugh in your face if you have body issues and can not change for pe (personal experience). Some of the teachers are okay and understanding but the cons out weight the pros with this school.

It is ok I guess?!??
It’s ok?? They are bothered about your education but only give you links to videos which doesn’t really help. As somebody who suffers from mental health problems they didn’t take much action, they only made it worse to be honest.

Written by former student
Teachers only help you if you are one of the misbehaved children. As an introverted individual it was a struggle to seek any kind of attention from teachers when for example i needed help, teachers are 99% focused on those who do not care about whether they pass their exams or not. Bullying wasn’t treated in the way it should, my friends were bullied but experienced no help, unless it was the odd ‘do you want me to call your mum?’. Only positive is that I didn’t do my exams because of COVID, but...

Not that great
As someone who deals with bad mental health and a physical disability, there isnt much help at all. Lots of the teachers dont listen to the students and/or give the wrong help. Not a good school.
