Chobham Academy

Great school, both my kids go there, I really don't understand the negative posts at all. Good discipline but not over the top, done gently but firmly. Facilities are five star and the teaching is of a good standard.

I've been here for a dance performance of an external dance school so I've actually experienced only the theatre of the Academy which was good. The visual was good although there's no actual stage. The performance is on the ground facing the audience seats. For what I know there are no changing rooms so, after the show, we had to use the toilets (crowded of course!). Very squeeky seats, therefore, overall, an ok location.

Been going to this school since year 2 and primary was good but in secondary the learning is so limited! Ive lost count of how many cover teachers ive had who do nothing and just hand you a text book giving you no help or support whatsoever. The teachers do not take bullying seriously at all and treat black and asians different to the rest. If your even one second late to a lesson then you get put in a ‘developing room’ where you sit there and do nothing for either two hours or the rest of the day. Ive seen teacher hit students, call them animals, treat them disgustingly and it will be for the littles of things. Me personally i wouldn’t send my child there for a million pounds and if you love your child you wouldn’t either. The punishments are so bad i know a girl who was doing self harm because these girls where bullying her and when she went to a teacher he done nothing about it. And it was a safeguarding teacher. Honestly if you know whats good for you stay away from that school.

Teachers shout at u and send u out for no reason and call it teaching,always having cover teachers who just give u textbooks i feel sorry for any1 who sends there kid here

They care only about the uniform, nothing about learning. they tolerate bulling a lot. if you have teenager don't send him to this school. even you can visit nearest police station and to the school and you can inquire how many daily cases they receive from chobham.. very unpleasant experience.

The primary school is ok not excellent. The secondary school is where there are major problems. The teachers are very unprofessional and the lack the skills to deal with teenagers specifically, from differing backgrounds. The current principle and assistant principle seriously need training in this regard.

Worst school I have ever had to deal with,So glad my child has moved. Would not recommend this school. Teachers always changing. couldnt even fill in school section on application for the new school after calling and emailing for 2 weeks absolutely useless!

Absolutely horrible school. The front reception, teachers and staff communication is absolutely shocking! Disgusting how teachers speak to their students! Calling names and comparing them to animals! They care only about the full uniform, so make sure, your kid wear one every day, otherwise they will end up with no lunch !
