My son got a lunchtime detention for being late to lessons 3 times this term and he was only in the toilet. The students only get 5 minutes to get to their next lesson, the corridors are always rammed and there’s a lot of pushing and shoving, resulting in fights. The teachers don’t care when my son tries to explain he was in the toilet and say they’ve heard it all before. The students aren’t allowed to go to the toilet during lessons so when are they supposed to go or are they supposed to soil themselves?
I emailed my son’s tutor and head of house about it but neither of them replied so I emailed the Redhill Academy Trust about it. They’ve passed my complaint on to the head teacher’s PA, so nothing will get done.
The teachers also like to dish out behaviour points and detentions for minor issues and more serious issues get overlooked. The school have their priorities wrong.
In the process of making formal complaint but they dont make it easy. We have had different children’s parents tell us from their child that teachers are purposely picking on my son. Being over the top with detentions and punishments when other kids are worse.
Staff love dishing detentions out for minor “offences” Sure some teachers are psychos on a power trip.
The Staff Here Particually The Student Reception Lady Who Dosent Listen To Anything That Has Been Reported And Dosent Belive The Words That Come Out Your Mouth (I Once Hurt My Leg And Couldent Walk On My Own So I Had A Friend Help Me Walk All Day Long) Teachers Set Detentions For No Reason Or For Something As Small As A Ant Anyway Bad School Carlton Le Willows Is Highly Recommended
The Carlton Academy employs teachers that tends to issue after school detentions to pupils who do little wrong. It’s a technique used to show pupils who is boss instead of using alternative techniques to encourage pupils to improve their behaviour. It’s very easy for teachers to hand out detentions but quite challenging to exercise other solutions. Carlton Academy has gone downhill over the past few years hence the Nottingham Evening Post gave it a one-star rating recently. There are plenty of parents with similar views to mine as I also have children that attend the academy. Do bear in mind other nearby schools such as Carlton Le Willows and Christ the King when thinking about admitting your children to The Carlton Academy. Lastly, there is one particular secretary who clearly has an attitude problem.
I definitely do not recommend this school ! It is terrible. Maths teachers have a disgusting attitude and the maths department it self in general is really bad. The teachers are incredibly careless in the house office
