Nottingham University Academy of Science and Technology

Bad environment overall school is falling apart with the staff all leaving and students being reminded frequently of the standards of the school. Remaining teachers are nasty and burgers are dry

The best school I've been too. Completely turned around my education. Year 9, was predicted to fail everything and was told I was going nowhere. Then in year 10, didn't make much progress (had to get rid of bad habits). Then in year 11 the bad habits vannished and made 4 Grades of Progress in 6 months in English Language, 5 Grades of Progress in Maths and 3 Grades of Progress in Chemistry and 1 Grade in Physics and 3 in Biology. (compared to year 10). My grades were (core subjects): Chemistry: 6 Biology: 5 Physics: 4 Maths: 5 English Language: 5 English Literature: 4 That school saved me a life and I shan't forget anything about that school. Now I've gotten an opportunity to study a BTEC there and am loving every bit of it.

Lots of activities, tight knit community, amazing experienced teachers. Unfortunately handled bullying poorly but that didn't effect me much. The inside of the school is stuffy, no windows open, no major outside areas so getting headaches was common. Made really good friends, they are quite laid back regarding what you do as long as you get the work done. Please bare in mind I was one of the last year 10 intakes before they converted into a normal secondary school

It is a good school and you do learn more than most school but is stupidly strict
