Chobham Academy, Roof Terrace

Ofsted clearly rates terribly because this school is horrible. They do the most and are insanely strict. They expect kids to bring an extra pair of socks and change for P.E. They don’t take any reports seriously and will just tell you to “send an email” and are so quick to dish out reflections for such minute things. Terribleee.

If diabetic, and a lot when I ask to go to medical cause I’m dangerously low, I get rejected, delayed, or just ignored, and especially today, a teacher said ‘I’m sick not dying’ like it’s the other way around, I literally am dying right then and there, the school meals are almost always tiny, and I finish them real quick and still hungry afterwards, for 2.76?!?! And then the TAs some of them don’t give a damn about me and leave my bag to the size to watch TikTok’s!

Deeply Disappointed with Chobham Academy I had very high hopes for Chobham Academy, but my experience has been extremely disappointing. The quality of teaching varies wildly — some teachers seem genuinely dedicated, but many appear unmotivated or overwhelmed. Communication between the school and parents is poor; important information often arrives late, if at all. Discipline and student behavior are also major concerns. There seems to be little consistency in how rules are enforced, which creates a chaotic environment where students who actually want to learn are often disrupted. Facilities might look impressive from the outside, but maintenance and cleanliness have gone downhill. The school seems more focused on appearances than on providing a supportive and effective learning atmosphere. Overall, Chobham Academy feels disorganized and unresponsive to the needs of its students and parents. I sincerely hope the school leadership takes serious steps to improve.
