    Not a good school

    Absolute disgrace of a school. Doesn't care for its students. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.

    Don’t go to this school

    They accused me of skipping a detention and even the people that love school don’t like John Whitgift Academy

    absolutely disgraceful

    A majority of the teachers there are absolutely horrible! It’s more of a “who’s uniform is neater” school then it is a “we care about your education school” They are all about mental health? However you go to them with something they tell you to go back to lesson. You need a wee? Can’t go.. You get isolation. Girls can’t wear shoes with bows on, i had a pandora ring one of the teachers saw it gave it to front desk and lost it?

    Dont go.

    Most of the teachers dont care about you just the grade, i needed them to speak on me having ADHD and Autism and they refused, they only care about top set.

    Bad school

    Wasn't very pleasure experience. Bullied for 5 years, claims to be zero-tolerance bullying academy but is very untrue. A few good teachers but not very fair towards students.

    Review from someone who’s off into ur 10 this yr

    Favourite top sets like most schools, some good teachers, full of bs from the head and slt, welcoming to many (We also got to go out on the field on our phones on the last day of yr 9 which was good i guess cause they’re normally banned)
