The Ruth Gorse Academy

"Awful so-called Academy behaviour students when they finish and out of the building. Creating chaos and amoral and occasionally dangerous situations. As a resident of the area, I can see every day what happens on the street, when these students are none controlled. The teachers or staff do not care to check the students or teach them how to behave on the street."

"This school is a disgrace. Schools are supposed to promote health and well-being, instead the teachers here LOVE to make students life hell. forcing students into isolation for the most minor things like it’s a prison? who qualified these teachers? absolutely appalling. Clearly think they are higher than everyone else when the inside of the building is like a zoo."

"The Ruth gorse academy is a great school,the principal has and continues to do a lot for local communities,and students,they hold coffee mornings for parents/carer's and keep parents informed in anything,they also have a 100% attendance rewards for students which some lucky students won 32inch TV's along with other prizes, overall this is a great school."

"A very disgraceful school just awful dont recommend going to this school it has rats and very bad staff one of the worst schools in leeds by far their world class status should be stripped from them!"

"I live locally and some of the kids going to this school are very irresponsible and reckless. Most recently, a group of 4 males took the life ring from the dock water and used it to play hoopla, arguing with a cleaning member of staff when they were told to stop and put it back. Absolutely unbelievable. I called the school and they didn't seem too bothered or surprised by this behaviour. Perhaps mature and responsible behaviour is not taught at this school. I would be ashamed if they were my children."
