They dont let you go to the toilet unless you have a toilet pass, it is a human and basic right to go to the toilet but you are not allowed. According to my head of year it is not classed as a basic human right when you are in a lesson!? How does this make sense? I got a c2 (recorded warning) for dropping my pen then a c3 (removal from room,half an hour detention) for asling my friend if he wanted to borrow my pen as he didnt have a pen to write with and the teacher woul… *(Dec 2024)* - **1/5** — FUCK HAVELOCK!!!!!!!!!: This school is SHIT!I FUCKING HATE IT!I am currently a student here and all I will say is it is plainly obvious that the staff don't give two about the students mental wellbeing! They care more about the reputation and the stupid boring uniform rules that stop students from having individuality and being able to express themselves. AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE DUMB RULES! They can fuck off for all I care! If you are considering sending your child to this school i have one question to ask… *(Aug 2023)* - **1/5** — shit school: i was at this school as i got kicked out of beacon academy in year 10, this school is absolutely terrible. would give 0 stars if i could. i wasnt bullied here thankfully, but i witnessed many other students being bullied. there was a child who had autism there and all the other kids would contantly say things to him and about him. even the teachers would laugh and join in. The uniform policy is pathetic, your not allowed to show your ankles or shoulders (as its 'distracting' to the boys) where b… *(May 2023)* - **4/5** — Good school: It is a really good I recommend it to the people in the future it but you can get beat up a few times like I have but it is a good school and the teacher are really nice and the dinner staff listen to you and support you with anything just talk to them and they will listen and support you and the teachers ask if you need to go to medical if you are hurt like if a kid is mad and they through a chair and it hits you a little bit they will ask you if you are alright all day even if you say you are … *(Apr 2023)* - **1/5** — The school is shit: It is terrible. I have friends that got detentions for clicking their back. You have to pay for a pen pencil and ruler and if you don't get one your tutor lends it to you and if you still don't get one you get a half hour detention. I got detention once for forgetting my PE socks. Guys if you're looking to send your kid there I wouldn't recommend it *(Apr 2023)* - **1/5** — Listen up: I am a student at this school and what I’ve seen is absolutely disgusting. Girls getting told off for showing who they are. If you wear jewellery, piercings that are not studs in your ears, not having the right shoes but have a note for it, trousers that show a tiny bit of your ankle can all result to a detention or isolation. They only care about you if your head is down, participating in everything, looking happy all the time and always have correct uniform. Refusing everyone from going to the… *(Feb 2023)* - **2/5** — Review: My experience was that they wouldn't deal with bullying fast it takes time more than a week or they just forget it and you get harassed on a daily which the doesn't deal with and the promises they tell like they would give you a timeout card but they never give it to you and when you confront them they would say that they have never promised to give a timeout card of some sort. And they don't teach us enough and get mad that we don't understand which is really frustrating because I go there to l… *(Jan 2023)* - **3/5** — My review: In my opinion and in my experience the school would make us or usually force us to do thing we might not want to do. And when there's an issue with bullying the school/staff won't deal with it until like a week after or even never, and after they say they would take you out for a talk or give you a time out card but they never end up doing so and saying that they have never said that they would give a time out card to you which is quite the issue for me there's many more to sort out that in my o… *(Jan 2023)* - **1/5** — TOXIC: they have never ever helped me with anything, toxic and horrid teachers who don’t care about you, they only take notice if you are popular, if you’re not they don’t care. it is like a prison! they should have better things. *(Jan 2023)* - **1/5** — This school degrades your personality and mental state.: Girlies, Listen up. L I S T E N U P. This school manages to bamboozle me every day I attend. The rules get worse 🙁💖. First of all, there's a new rule coming out tomorrow, every morning our tutor will check our wrists. Like girly, wtf, what if someone was self-harming? What you gonna do then? What if someone is insecure about their arm hairs? What you gonna do then? Second, probs the most important, someone had to deal with racism through out the whole of year 7 and it's lead up to year 8 as well… *(Jan 2023)* ## Other schools in Grimsby - [Healing Primary Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/grimsby/healing-primary-academy-16127) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Healing Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/grimsby/healing-academy-12033) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Scartho Nursery School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/grimsby/scartho-nursery-school-7250) — 4.7/5 (4 reviews) - [Welholme Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/grimsby/welholme-academy-16114) — 4.7/5 (4 reviews) - [Scartho Junior Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/grimsby/scartho-junior-academy-13263) — 4.6/5 (4 reviews) - [Keelby Primary Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/grimsby/keelby-primary-academy-16505) — 4.6/5 (4 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
