Northampton International Academy

If I could give 0 stars I would I’m awaiting the latest ofsted report which I’m guessing will be further damaging to an already shattered reputation if that’s at all possible.
The bullying at this school is absolutely horrendous there are fights and I mean bad fights daily.
The communication between teachers and teacher/parent is absolutely abysmal and teachers leave so often that children’s needs are not met.
There are a few teachers that try their best but are honestly fighting a losing battle.
I thought the school would be in special measures by now this year alone there has been large scale
Fights, an attempted suicide,weapons in school,several teachers leaving.
Emails and phone calls are left,no response is given and as for head teacher she loves a photo opportunity for press but won’t speak to parents or even acknowledge them if their children have been victims of any kind- AVOID this school at all costs if you value your child/rens mental health and education.

Avoid this school if you can. Other reviws summarise what's happened and while it's certainly getting better its still not 'good'. A lot of the teachers (I've had) are just plain bad at teaching, whether its inablitity to control a class or just bad at conveying information. Still a lot of unnecessary rules and pickiness about uniform. We had to specifically get permission from the school to be allowed to take off parts of uniform during the heatwave. You have to have a pass in order to just go to the toilet during lesson, which are 100 minutes, otherwise you just aren't allowed to go. Breaks are very short and even then cut off by the 5 minute transition time.

Good school in fact , don't know why people say its so bad. Its a perfect facility and the teachers are nice , they don't lock people in the baths because there's always a teacher monitoring it plus the doors dont even have locks on them. So to all the people lying about NIA grow up , its a good school with fantastic facilities.

i just started a new year and was taken out and had to wait for 45 minuets to be told that my trousers were too short (im extremely tall) and my ankles were visible , i very happy that this is my last year. if it were possible id give no stars

Very good school if you have mental problems, if you have speech problems. They will always come to help. Excellent education, everyone has a lot of work. Lots of homework, no time to rest, well done!

It's a good school.people just say it's bad because they don't listen to the teachers.they care about your mental health and they are the no1 school to care about your mental health.they don't lock you in the bathrooms.some of the teachers are actually so funny!

If you want your child be unhappy., you can send it on this jail.I put my son this school to someone say good . Well I was rong. My child got burnt finger and wen he went to teacher he say go sit done you fine . He spend half his break just get come cold water on finger and this teacher get way with it! I hear from some parents that they not let go girls go to toilet even your period is start keep them sit and wait till ho now how long . I been contacted school so many time never come back anyone. And don’t expect the teachers will stop any bullying they not ! They don’t care. Think twice before you want send to this school your child .

It's a good school some people are just mad so the rating is low but the teachers and the head teachers are very nice
