Ex student
As a former student it is a disgusting place to go to school. No one is nice there and the teaching standards are so low it is horrendous, Any parent in their right mind wouldn't send their child there. It is absolutely awful and destroys your mental health. Most people in my year did drugs ect and as a person who has come from a wealtheir background I got bullied constantly. Just for speaking well and pronouncing my words properly. I didn't mention my background or anything but even so people w...

My experience at Ripon Outwood Academy
As a ex student there one of the baddest and most horrible things there was the bullying , when I first joined I was welcomed and it seemed okay to be there but over a month I was being bullied and made fun of, the teachers did NOTHING. The education there is even worst, in PSHE they taught us how to sneak drugs and weapons into prison, its completely inappropriate and outrageous. Boys would constantly say sexist remarks and racism towards other girls and myself. When i was at a private schoo...

Worst school ever would not reccomend
Worst school ever they give out c4 s too much and for the stupidest reasons they don’t care about any thing that goes on at home or any mental health problems. Once I was eating lunch with my friend and we hardly had eaten anything then the teacher told us to go to lesson we told her we were still eating and she said ‘I don’t care’ so we told her that we had spent money on it and it would be a waste of money to throw it away and she screamed ‘GET OUT’ at us . The lunch is really unfair 30 minute...

AVOID OUTWOOD!!
Absolutely awful school do not send your children here. New toilet rules absurd the school hasn’t improved at all since a new headteacher came in probably got even worse. This school is a good place if you are a bully to since they seem to thrive in that school practically being able to rule the school with no consequences instead the victim of bullying blamed. Avoid at all costs.

Outwood is medicore at best
After graduating outwood i can firmly tell you that this is no place to send a child or anyone to learn the teachers we're all inexperienced or had little to no intrest in teaching leading to low intrest in lessons making it hard to motivate students to learn and the disciplinary system is flawed as it doesn't actively discourage disruption leading to lessons being even harder to focus in with the constant distractions to talk or disrupt the class itself and the school has alot of outdated technology as well as broken technology the only posotive of this school is the physical education which not only has plenty of up to par equipment but it is exceptional i can only recommend this school to people that have confidence in their physical education everyone else should strongly avoid this school
