The Laurel Academy

It’s an excellent school. Pupils know exactly what’s expected of them, there are no grey areas. Some might say that’s strict but they don’t ask a lot. Arrive on time with the correct uniform and equipment or get detention for an hr the next day. They also use a lot of incentives and positive reinforcement like sweets or days out so it’s not all ‘do this or else’! The homework is all in one booklet which I think is brilliant; they know exactly what’s expected and when. The school day finishes at 14:30 so pupils could do one of the many FREE clubs after school each day and still be out for 15:30. It’s a lovely new building with some ace views too! If anything could be improved it would be the vape situation, apparently the toilets are full of the stuff.

School is not doing too well. The school reserves the right to treat anonymous cases as a rule not seriously. People who call themselves "teachers" treat children in the same way. Arrogance and disrespect, not learning kids something and then demanding on the test is breaking the elementary rules described in human rights. And where is the principle of fair play, respect for another human being? Not only some teachers, but also principals, even after negative opinions, should revise and force themselves to act and identify the problem. Shame on you for sweeping this under the rug. Worth to remember. The bulled person will one day do the same to others in the future. What do you want to teach them? It's making you proud dear teachers? It's a shame in my opinion. I wish you more humility and understanding for your profession.

I go to this school and all the teachers are rude the teachers do not lead in example the rules are to strict like if you don't take your coat of as soon as you get inside you get told of overall bad school

My kids are still scared to come to school as the head teacher thinks it's ok to make 12 year old girls wee themselves infront of everyone and don't think they should apologise, everything this school have said is not the truth they twist things to try make parents think there kids are being naughty when it's the teacher that telling lies, so parents pls listen to ur kids before believing these teachers

crap school. they always say that they care about people’s mental health and solve any bullying problems but that’s just a load of bullshit. they do not care. they have to say that because it’s a legal obligation and as teachers they are legally made to take care of us whilst we’re on school grounds. that’s it.

just an overall bad school
