The school full of melts
I mean the teachers are great but they really need to chill will uniform, I once had a 3 hour detention because I had white socks on. What melts. Also when I was in the library with my friends, we were talking quietly, this random ass teacher told me to move across the library to an isolated chair across for my friends. He needed to chill. We had to do line ups, after break to make sure our uniform was up to their standards, I mean Jesus Christ, and then they made us MOVE classrooms to do the sa...

Very bad school
Terrible school. Do not send your children there. My daughter is very depressed. School is like prison and many children hate that school. Bad quality of teaching.

Not a good school
I had a bad experience with this place, I couldn't get along with most teachers. They locked the toilets during lessons which I believe is taking away a basic human right. Got bullied and they did basically nothing, although LSAs and the SEND Co were a huge help for my mental health. Their food is expensive and not that great. They treated us like little children. I would not recommend this school at all

The worst school ever I've had the misfortune of staying there for 5 years of my life and in those five years I've not enjoyed a second

On the up!
Ever since the new Senior Leadership Team (SLT) arrived at Winton Academy in September 2023, I have been pleasantly surprised by the positive changes that have been made. Managing a school of this magnitude must be challenging, especially when attempting to alter people's viewpoints. Regrettably, the Academy faced difficulties over the past few years, resulting in multiple changes in leadership. Despite receiving a favorable rating in their recent Ofsted evaluation, there is still progress needed to reach an outstanding status. I firmly believe that, with the backing of parents, Winton Academy has the potential to achieve excellence.

Just asked the receptionist for the governor l of boards Anonymous email address and was refused. When I then said I’ll have to escalate this the the department of education she started shouted at me I’m threatening her? This is child like behaviour and I’m moving my son out of this school away from these maniacs

Don’t send your child here.
Abysmal secondary school.. poor communication, inability to communicate effectively to different types of children from different walks of life. Give detentions, isolations and exclusions at the drop of a hat, bark orders at the children rather than try to have connected conversations. Outlandish policies on using the bathroom; especially difficult if your child has any type of additional need such as ADHD which can lead to them forgetting to use the toilet or for girls going through their periods. I am aware of so many unhappy children and parents - there is not “community” about Winton such a shame it is going down hill and fast

Heybby
Hi, I go to this school. It's great. Except from the cameras inside loo and the pe teachers entering the lockers. One time the police came for a mischievous teacher.

Horrible school
Horrible school honestly. Teachers constantly give students panic attacks, they don't do anything about bullying even though they say it won't be tolerated. Lots of racism, homophobia, and BULLYING. Many people get stabbed and Dentenion for no reason. People get detention for having white socks, WHITE SOCKS. Terrible school. Students constantly feel victimized. DON'T SEND YOUR CHILD HERE

Awful at handling anything
As it stands, I'm currently being bullied. I have spoken to a teacher about this and got moved into another class with someone who is now saying I posted child porn somewhere and constantly getting the class to blame me for things I never did essentially getting me into trouble for no reason. My Philosophy teacher is VERY powerhungry and LAUGHED after he got 2 people in trouble and wouldn't give them a reason. They cant collaborate well as it took them 7 days to enable my account again after the...

Disgusting school. Needs to be held accountable.

I sent my son here and he got bullied because he was in a wheelchair. There was instances where those damn kids pushed him off his motherF***ing wheelchair!! SHOCKING. HORRIBLE STAFF. DI BETTER!!!!

Could be better
After moving from an outstanding Secondry school to this one I am said to say it just couldn’t compare, unfortunately it had many issues and in my opinion didn’t care about all of the students and dealt with things the wrong way.
