Tollbar Academy Reviews

Bullied repeatedly and teachers did nothing, sure it builds charecter but was only young.

Tollbar Academy what can I say.....

Such a good school what more could you ask for.Tollbar is like Victoria sponge
Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Butter two 20cm sandwich tins and line with non-stick baking paper.

In a large bowl, beat 200g caster sugar, 200g softened butter, 4 beaten eggs, 200g self-raising flour, 1 tsp baking powder and 2 tbsp milk together until you have a smooth, soft batter.

Divide the mixture between the tins, smooth the surface with a spatula or the back of a spoon.

Bake for about 20 mins until golden and the cake springs back when pressed.

Turn onto a cooling rack and leave to cool completely.

To make the filling, beat the 100g softened butter until smooth and creamy, then gradually beat in 140g sifted icing sugar and a drop of vanilla extract (if you re using it).

Spread the buttercream over the bottom of one of the sponges. Top it with 170g strawberry jam and sandwich the second sponge on top.

Dust with a little icing sugar before serving. Keep in an airtight container and eat within 2 days.

Love it m9, saw bare drugs taken and family friendly environment

I really like this school, I used to get bullied at my old schools, but everyone is nice to me at this school I love it. The teachers are exceptional and the food is divine. The sports facilities are superb high class athletes are created at this school and geniuses. Ice in the veins

This school is absolutely dreadful. The rules are ridiculously strict and there is barely any help out there for people suffering with mental health issues. They send letters home for the most petty reasons like not having a pencil or ruler. Why not just ask the parents over a phone call to get their children the things they need? Another thing is, if you forget something for PE like socks or trainers, you will have to stand facing the wall in the corridor for 5-10 minutes. You are not allowed to do anything like lean against the wall or talk for these minutes. Its beyond ridiculous. They only care about their reputation and that's it. Not about the students well-being.

1 out of 5 would not recommend too many sus imposters on the premises

As much as the school has quite a few flaws in the rules etc, it's a great school. Your children have a pass rate, in Maths and English, of approximately 85% and there is a lot of variety of subjects to choose from going into GCSE's. Not to mention the substitute for college they have called the Sixth Form.

Called themselves a business school once upon a time and now they don't even do it. Well, they did it when I was in year 7, but then they just removed it for GCSE. You'll find this at this school, you like a subject and then they'll remove it, oh except for Textiles, which 2 people do but they make sure that's on every year. Plus , for perspective, I had 8 History teachers in my first year alone, everyone of them saying they got another job in the MAT system of schools. Good to find friends as there was so many people and atleast one of them has to have the same interests as you, that is the only pro of this school. Btw, no trips, except for Hull University but whts the point.

Literally none of the teachers know how to do their jobs properly and the uniform policy is so petty!! I mean honey my brows need to be slaying all the time, including the 7 hours a day where I waste pen ink, paper, my time and my life trying to work out why Dickens used a metaphor to calculate the mass of the Sun. And that's the tea...
