Failure of the system
I had a meeting last year to enroll my son in Leith Academy. I was told that someone would be in touch. I've never heard a thing. My son has now been out of school for a year and I've still had no reply after several attempts to contact the school. All I get is we will get someone to call you back. Absolute joke.

Starvation
School cafeteria made me starve after waiting 20 minutes in line for my food, they said I didnt have enough money for a pizza slice which costs around a pound.. I had 5 pound.

Mean p.e teachers
I was in p.e and my friend took my phone and the teacher instead of telling me to put it away she snatched it and when I got it back it was all scratched the teacher was miss Grant and honestly she made me lose all respect in herself

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 .

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.
