This school is so awful but there so many great teachers who have left. This school is disgusting it has a lack of education, its hard to find the right help with own experience I’m in year 8 and permanently excluded by Mr grant by a stupid comment I made because I had a lot of problems in my life which made me say it out of the blue without realising. And the teachers are mainly making a joke in lessons and don’t care and want your child to get bad grades I beg you don’t send your child there
Ofsted Rating July 2019 school rated. As inadequate. Extremely rude, ill mannered pupils. As a disabled person pushed in the back, deliberately by a pupil alighting a 16 Preston Bus I asked the Academy to deal with it. It appears they enjoy raising young thugs, with no emotional intelligence or compassion for others and indeed are quite proud of their behaviour.
the teachers are dyslexic and pathetic and i got food poisoning of the paninis. also i dont feel comfortable with the dirtry environment and the fact that there is cameras in the classrooms. my targets have decreased by a few grades wich is unacceptable completely the opposite of what should be happening. i am not a bad student and yet my grades are still dropping due to bad teaching.
What kind of school is FulwoodAcademy? Well let me tell you, the school busses have been put put back an hour and some busses are an earlier, despite the school starting later students are spending 8 HOURS at the school. Which is terrible for the young minds, let’s do the simple year 1 maths shall we? (Consider the school can’t even do that). We are recommended 9 hours of sleep as teenagers, so 8+9= 17-24=7. You probably think this ok, 7 hours to ourselves, well you’d be WRONG!
Ok so, we have to eat, bathe and get changed (-1:6 hours left), any own revition we need to do that we know we need to do better in (-1:5 hours left). Then revision/homework we actually get, bearing mind we will probably always get it in maths, English and science(-2 hours and 15 minutes:3 hours and 45 minutes left). THEN any detentions (-1: 2hours and 45 minutes) or even events going on after school which can last hours, lets just be generous take another hour off (-1 hour: 1hour and 45 mins). Now let’s be nice we let ourselves relax for an hour( -1 hour: 45 minutes remaining). THAT MEANS WE ONLY HAVE 45 MINUTRS FIR SOCIALIZING WITH FRIENDS WHICH IS CRUTIAL FOR MENTAL HEALTH, AS WELL AS HOBBIES, FAMILY EVENS, YOU KNOW, GODDANM FUN.
Bus times are wack children waiting an hour for them, because the governor can’t be bothered paying for busses. Leaving children out in the freezing, dark, dangerous cold. They tell children outside of school they represents the school, although they don’t do anything about situation the kids get.

Not only that kids have bad attendance becuase of how bad the school is, they think it’s because they have a little head ache or the sniffles, but there it’s so much more than that. I feel like this next bit sums it up perfectly, which I read in a post: “‘I don’t want to go to school tomorrow,’ ‘I hate school,’ ‘Can I just not go today’ Often heard statements. Usually considered to be said as a result of a lazy teenager who simply can’t be bothered to go. But realistically, it can be so much more. These may be the subtle hints of someone who that going to school tomorrow is one of the most terrifying thoughts. Or someone who genuinely does hate school. Or someone who literally does not have the energy to get out of bed and drag themselves to school. The fact that teenagers are crying themselves to sleep at night because they’re dreading school tomorrow, or having a mental breakdown over a simple piece of homework because at home they don’t want to be reminded of the place that they couldn’t despise any more, or even hoping deep inside that they get hit or are in an accident on the way to school to get them out of going, the fact that these things and so many more things like these are happening shows that something is terribly wrong. And the fact that teens are getting told to ‘stop being so lazy’ as a response to this is wrong. School can be the place of many people’s nightmares for many reasons. They could be getting bullied, they could be getting picked on by their teachers, they could have a mental disorder which makes school a massive challenge, they could feel left out and alone, they could be struggling with subjects, they could feel that they don’t fit in and so many more awful things. Next time your kid (or friend) says they don’t want to go to school, ask them why. Tell them that you’re there for them. Don’t risk the chances of letting them cry alone in bed at night because they don’t want to sleep as it will only make tomorrow come faster. It could be much more than them just being lazy. Even if it’s just a small thing, get it resolved before it becomes a big thing. School is not easy, and neither is being a teenager.”
I’ve not even gotten onto the main issues of fulwood or lessons in fulwood and ive reached my limit on this review. All I want to say is that we have a picture of Albert Einstein on a wall, and yet we behave this way when he once said: “Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school. It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.”

I’m Not even going to the school yet and I’m still in year 6 at Brookifield Commuinity Primary School
and based on reviews like rat infestations and a million 1 star ratings I can allready tell this school is going to have the worst days of my life. The ONLY thing I like able the chickens (Kentucky, Fried and Chicken) the Apple trees and the new support dog
