bad school
Leith academy is a really bad school there is lots of bullying not just by boys but girls as well I have been bullied since I went there the teachers do absolutely nothing about it my advice don't send your kids here.
Not a good thing to say
Terrible. Got some male teachers that rub your thighs and back which seems very inappropriate. Also poor mental health support. While reaching out for help I was welcomed by “I don’t know what I should say to you” then when I eventually stopped going to school because of my mental health was not contacted once despite asking for help for years. Eventually me stopping going to school resulted in me becoming a drop out and I think this could have been easily avoided if the school
Cared abit more for there student’s. If that wasn’t enough you have teachers
Which are late upwards of 30mins to their own lesson. Who swear at students and hit tables. This school really has to do better there is still random people in the school despite security doors now but atleast they’re not leaving bomb scares or stealing school supplies unnoticed like before. Leith you cant cover your poor system anymore it will come to light

I'd say poor
This school is quite poor , for the past 4 and a half months I have been getting bullied , threatened and most of the teachers I have spoke to haven't done much about it at all and it's still going on right now .
bad school
leith academy is a bad school, the teachers don’t teach that much. leith is way behind most other schools and causes most of their pupils fonfail
Leith academy review
Leith academy has a huge creative department and the opportunities are plenty, the teachers are usually really good in pretty much all subjects, we have a safe space for lgbtqia+ students, an Eco Council, equality ambassadors and a pupil Council.
Could be better
Could do with more useful mental health awareness and a better system but otherwise not bad. Someone pulled a knife on me at school
ok school
it's ok, some good teachers some bad ones. they need to sort out their stuff on male bullying and mental health, very misandrist system, need better mental health handling in general.
