However, we feel that there is a lack of communication with parents about important events and that some teachers could be more supportive. *(Aug 2023)* - **1/5** — make this better now: 1 stop the bulling now 2 be kind to the studens 3 be repecfull now do tthis i going to be mad i woun't be happy to stop bulling or you just going to get sutdown so if i was i would stop beacause your rating only a 2.5 and that bad *(Jun 2023)* - **1/5** — hellhole: this school sucks so much, ever since they ‘raised standards’ its been so bad *(May 2023)* - **5/5** — An Exceptional Education with Extra Curricular Activities to Match: We moved our daughter to Stanground Academy in Year 7 and she has thrived in the supportive and ambitious environment.
