Linlithgow Academy

Pretty great school! They dont deal with bullying all too well, which is disappointing, but they arent exactly strict, and alot of the teachers are awfully nice. Interior is extremely nice, same with the outdoors. The bathrooms are mostly clean, and halls and classrooms are decorated lovely! Nice school.

The school itself regarding educating is just meh, the staff pride themselves on “mental health awareness” but do literally nothing to assist students struggling mentally apart from show a PowerPoint once a year but most of the staff are quite kind but the bullying issue here is awful if someone comes to them saying their being bullied all they will do is “ have a firm word “ with the bully, they have no regards to a student struggling with anxiety or depression they will just say “there’s nothing we can do” and will send the student back to class, the actual teachers themselves i have mixed opinions on but then again they are MY opinions so everyone’s will be different, I genuinely hope this school becomes better but so far it doesn’t look like it will anytime soon, they have changed a lot of things some of which are ok but the rest are just trash.

I had to endure bullying from S1-S3 and the school did nothing about it. I didn’t get my parents involved until S3 because I didn’t want to worry them, thinking the school would just listen to me. Spoiler alert - they didn’t.

Could be better and should listen to students instead of waiting for parents to say something. Also less pressure in general but otherwise it’s a pretty great school.
