The Victory Academy

I attended this school circa 2009. My experience can only be described as a hellish nightmare. The staff was horribly abusive, mentally, physically and emotionally. I wes hit and physically restrained and placed in a small for days. The staff is also very racist and generally sadistic. On the occasions where I was permitted to call my parents I was unable to tell them what was going on because staff was watching me with a hand on the receiver and I was afraid for my safety. I developed severe PTSD and suicidal depression as well as a pretty serious drug dependency, that lasted until 7 years ago, when I got sober. I've been in therapy for the past decade and it's the only thing that makes my PTSD manageable, though it's still a daily struggle.
PLEASE don't send your children here.
I never want any human being to suffer as I did.

I regret sending my children to this school they could not meet my sons need’s didn’t help much, now my daughters head of year is constantly picking on her for stupid reasons I can never get a meeting with the head teacher they always come up with something, I have well and truly had it now

giving it a one is extremely generous but to get to the point this school is actually shit the teachers are so rude and when you get rude to them back you get introuble for it also some of the teachers are racist not all but half. the food is good but extremely expensive ( the star was for the food) some of the teachers need to be fired and when ofsted came to visit a few days ago they suddenly became all nice and standing at the door saying good morning e.c.t if your look at this review you will not regret your decision taking your poor child to a shit school like victory I even think that victory has ruined my mental health and I have only been there for a few months. you will not regret your decision. And this rubbish school talk abt pride and respect and they have none of that not even a mustard seed. Thank you oh and I must not forget they are always picking on the innocent

As a parent of a former student, I can attest to the great work done at The Victory Academy. The school provides a wide range of programs and activities that cater to different interests and talents, and the teachers are passionate about their subjects. One area for improvement is in terms of communication with parents, but overall, we were pleased with our child's experience.

We've been impressed by the warm and welcoming atmosphere at The Victory Academy. The school's commitment to inclusion and diversity is evident in the way it celebrates different cultures and abilities. Our child has settled in well and is enjoying the Arts program, which has been excellent so far.

Poor school. Its not great but at the same time its not really bad. Like other reviews have said,the staff and students at times can be respectful,kind and helpful but at other times people are just so utterly rude.A school that you go to learn and leave although half the time you can not learn anything.The school always brags about how their first top priority is the students and making us feel safe and to make sure the students have the right to education but when you actually step inside everything changes and that priority instantly changes.

the teachers don't care about you. if your behind you get no extra help i wouldn't recommend bringing your child here

We've had a fantastic experience at The Victory Academy so far. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the staff are always approachable and willing to help. We particularly appreciate the emphasis on the Victory Values of Respect, Pride, and Belief, which we believe are essential for our children's personal and academic development.

Pretty bad, student here and the students there are so rude to each other, fights a lot, some staff are nice and others are not, some teachers there don't even know how to explain stuff properly even when some of the students in their class are failing, needs more acceptance there in general.

It's a school. Nothing special really. Some teachers are understanding and kind, and others are not. It does
doesn't feel like a family, just a place where you get grades and leave. Can't fault it, though.

I joined in late September and felt like I fitted in straight away. Can't fault the school at all. Friendly staff and plenty of resources needed for learning.
