Wigston Academy needs a big change
This place is quite bad and I hate it. First of all I don't feel safe. The school has changed the five minute early pass to two minutes. Five minutes was perfect to leave lesson five minute early to go to next lesson without the crowds and you could go to lunch and break five minutes early and go home five minutes early but two minutes is basically useless.

Could be better
The school always says it promotes anti bullying and help for all and yet for the people that need it you have to ask teachers which sometimes won’t even come back to talk.

Terrible school
It was not a good school at all, they dotn care about your education at all, they said everyones mental health matters but they make it bad. They don't let children use toilets and lock them during lessons - its ridiculous for girls and anyone in fact to not be allowed to go toilet

Choose another place
They aren’t able to take care of situations properly, overpriced school meals that aren’t great; takes them a long time to sort bullying out. Absolutely terrible- Don’t recommend this kind of school

Drugs , violence in my school
During school I have had sexual and physical abuse in which when I told the teachers did nothing . My head of year claims there is no drug or smoking problem in our school in which there is , there are things I have witnessed such as drug dealing and abuse , these drugs have been dealt to children as young as 12 and lower . The school ignores u when u say you are struggling with mental health and simply just say it will get better !

Bad experience
Going to this school was the worst experience of my life. There were a few good teachers and that was it. The merge ruined it
