Joke school
This school are unaware of their policies and procedures. Very biased. It's a shame they cannot deal with knife crime when needed, but decide to put some on an extreme punishment for a minor incident. I would NEVER send a child here especially a boy.

School entry
Went to watch year 7 football game vs Victory Academy. At the reception lady directed me how to get to the football pitch (no issues) Then head of school popped around and in very rude manner asked me how did I got in. I have explained him how. His response was "all gates must be shut". Obviously they not and your reception people are not aware about school rules. I understand how important to keep kids safe at school. Very rude person- head of strood academy!

Staff only care what they look like and treat kids with contempt
Absolutely appalling, had 3 children there , promised 2 children would get ehcp.plans they did nothing, they turned kn 2 of.my lads who were autistic, getting dragged into home work clubs which are actually after school detentions when their home work was up to date My wide spoke to some SLT guy Ben.someone really smarmy and clearly there to tell parents what they want to hear and blow smoke up.their backsides sadly most of what he promised he would do wasn't true Toilets with no doors , detentions for u tucked shirts, children not allowed to ask questions when they don't understand and instead issued warnings for asking on 3rd warning the kids are dragged out and placed in an exclusion room then given hrs detention same day Very quick to point fingers at parents and pupils but don't recognise their own failures , staff more concerned with how good they look to.their bosses and of stead and care little about the children in their care. Do not send your kids to this dive

Need better/cheaper food and doors in the bathrooms
It's an okay school, the teachers are good. The education is good but the only problems is the food, no doors on the boys toilets (finally installed new ones in the trafalgar bathrooms) but no doors in the rest, the food is too expensive for what it is and half the time there is no food left for the year 11's

Never send your kids here
One of the worst schools in the uk you can’t even go to the toilet in lesson time and you don’t have the time to go In-between lessons and 99% of the teachers don’t care about you and rude when I went there it was 2 good teachers they was only there for my first year they left Becouse the school was getting so bad I got pressured to make a untrue statement about a slt member something happend but I don’t want to say on here Becouse I don’t want people to know it’s me typing but if it got proven he did it he would of lost his job and possibly went to prison and since he is high in slt he deleted the camera footage of it happened.

Worst school ever
At this school you are not aloud to go to the toilet unless you have a pass from a doctor then you would have to get the head teacher to sign off on it It gets worse the food they serve is Allways cold and my year the year that just past when we finished our exams they made us wait till every year was clapping and saying good bye to us It was good but then everyone beware the end kept calling people sex offenders and all the other slurs but some of the teachers are great
