It is disturbing to me as a parent to watch my children going through the agony and mentally painful effects of bullying at this school. It is hard for me to accept that the head of the school tolerates repeated incidents of physical and mental abuse by not only my child’s classmates but also by some of the school staff. To be fair, the previous teacher of my daughter when she was in grade 5 was excellent as a teacher and as a human being. However, and to my determent, in grade 6 she wasn’t as fortunate. She was exposed to both physical and mental abuse by some of her classmates in two different incidents. Despite our efforts as parents to urge the school administration to offer my daughter the support she needed and to provide the required counseling to the perpetrators, our efforts were faced by negligence and at times with attempts of cover up. My children tell me of bullying incidents against other students as well. I would encourage their parents to speak out and report those incidents, not only to the school but also to the MoE, as the body that licensed them, so that every relevant party takes on its responsibility.

Incompetent school administrators. Major conflicts of interest are widely tolerated by the headmaster. Misconduct by staff members treated with impunity. Outdated building beyond repair. Qualified teachers are replaced by unqualified ones. Education is not their primary purpose. Low budget facilities. Support and counselling for students does not exist.

They prioritize tuition fees over students' learning, exhibiting shortcomings in time management, teaching strategies, and a lack of respect towards kids and parents.

The students and teachers of Blyth Academy deserve better. Blyth Management, and specifically the head of school, is thoughtless, disorganized, and incompetent. They show very little concern for their staff, which has resulted in very high turnover. Send your kids elsewhere.

The school treats it's teachers terribly and they are mostly disgruntled because. In 2020 the turn-over of teachers was over 95%. They lost all their teachers, that tells you a lot. Cutting their pay, not enough staff for the courses, often students have no teacher for their subjects. The school only wants your money, education is not much of a thought from the admin or local partners. They take and take but when it comes to education for your child, it's the last priority. Send your precious children to a better place.

It was great to organize book fair in the school. Though the variety was good, it would be great if school also provided for books on specific interests. Thank you though for organizing this.

There was some substituting as previous teacher left for some reason. Now it all seems very organized and my daughter likes the way they are getting more chances of speaking in the class.
