Gloucester Academy Review

Elitist, imperialist swine who selectively enforce arbitrary rules as their prejudice dictates.

Really bad school. The children get told of for the most minor things ever and it needs to stop. Also the children should be able to have any piercings they want, and any colour hair they want. This school is always talking about how they let their students express theirselves, yet they can t dye their hair, or have piercings?! Pathetic.

The students should be able to dye their hair. Make changes to the rules! They should be able to dye their hair as their teachers are! Human rights Gloucester Academy...

Staff doesn't call back, they are only concerned about attendance and exam results, they don't help the pupils that need it most they are left to struggle. General behaviours of staff gives cause for concern.

I never had an issue but when my daughter was unable to do a detention on a certain evening rather then change the day i was told that unless i explained why(personal and private reason) she would have isolation all day! I have always supported detention if she has had one,even for pathetic reasons. Blackmail!!!! So im looking to remove her from this place asap

I think this school is a great place to learn. The staff is always cheerful and so nice, they always greet you with a huge smile. Teachers are mostly very helpful and always willing to go through things that the students might struggle with. I believe that the EAL team deserves special acknowledgement as they deliver an enormous amount of help and support to the students from other countries. I was one of them, and without the ladies from the EAL team I would not be able to achieve so much. I cannot express in words how grateful I am.
However, there is a reason why I decided to give the school only 4/5 stars. I believe I am not the only one who faced multiple problems with cash machines in school. On multiple occasions I experienced problems with them, as the machine took my money without changing the balance on my account. Every time I reported a problem, people responsible for these machines stated that the machine had not register my money, therefore they were unable to give them back. This resulted in me not only loosing money but ending up hungry without lunch for the rest of the day.

They care more about school uniform then education
, and it seems like a common theme throughout the school. The most important judgement for a school is its ability to teach not only education but to teach children how to behave, this is not the place for that in my opinion, looking at how they have handled many uniform related problems.... Look for another school, don t ruin your children s future.

This school is a good place to learn only often they help you with problems
