University Academy Holbeach

This school is honestly the worst, as a student here i feel obligated to share my opinion and it’s not good.Last year a teacher was fired for touching up a girl, everyone knew about it and some of my friends even had to write statements about it, but if you asked any teacher they would say he just left ok his own.Some of the teacher are lovely but the rest are just bullies not even strict just bullies.This one teacher told a kid that he should be on meds and in a mental institution.
The school it’s self is usually clean except for the toilets, bricks, rubbish, blood and wee are almost always on one of the seats.They also thought it was a good idea to put cameras in the toilets, and just today they were putting traffic mirrors on the walls so people see into them with going in. I’ve heard so many people complaining about these and i agree. Male teachers or students can easily see into them.They have only put these in the girls toilets.
Not too long ago we had a non school uniform day, everyone had to bring a pound in for charity, the next day we had two new TVs put in the canteen and enterence.This happened again on friday, now we have new mirrors.
Fights and bullying happens nearly everyday and they are never fully resolved, they just stick everyone in iso or give them C3s.They also give C points out for any minor incident. it’s ridiculous, sort all this out.

Too meny teachers leave and those who stay don't help in are learning

Honestly this place is a great school if your kid is neurotypical and not disabled. As a person who is both and couldn't mask well in the last few years, this school had by far one worst experiences I've had.

This is a serious review for the school, not a biased and false report like some of the others.
As a student myself, UAH is a great school overall. Staff and teachers work hard to give students of all years a good GCSE grade and help them advance their learning in various topics. Teachers and staff are kind and thoughtful, and bullying (and other issues) is at a minimum, relative to other schools of its kind, due to these staff members.
As for GCSE's, the school provides many varied options to choose; from Business to Brick-work, there is something for every kind of person, to help them make their career choice a reality, and to add to this, UAH has specialists in each field to teach these topics to students.
UAH also provides a good variety of post-16 options, including but not exclusive to; Apprenticeships, A-Levels and the newly implemented T-Levels, each in a variety of sectors and subjects. Their array of choice beats many other establishments in the local area.
It is clear that the school takes pride in ensuring that students have an informative, safe and enjoyable education while here, and I myself very much enjoy attending University Academy Holbeach as a school.

I really do not recommended the Sixth Form at UAH as I have previously posted a lengthy review stating my problems which has seemingly been removed since. The school has poor communication and organisation as the course I was on started with 17 people and by the end had roughly 10 people as the others left due to the poor management of the course. For the first 6-8 months of the course we faced many technical problems as the software required was not installed on the computers, even though we asked the technicians multiple times they couldn't install the software correctly. This led to us being months behind on work even though it wasn't our fault. Due to the amount of backed up work that needed to be done in a short time-frame a significant amount of mental strain was placed upon me, which led to me leaving the course so that I could at least pass my other course. I understand that this was first time this course was done and we were "Guinea pigs" but this does excuse the fact that they did not make any alterations despite the fact that we sent a letter with our recommendations which was signed by the class to the head of Sixth Form and the schools Principle.
