Tong Leadership Academy Westgate Hill Street, East Bierley, Bradford BD4 6NR

"As a student at this school I can tell you how bad this school is. There a a few good and chill teachers. However, there are alot of teachers that are horrible. The food is ok. There are teachers that will give you a detention for a stupid reason. If I were a primary school student choosing a high school, I wouldn't choose Tong."

"Worst school ever the ones rating it 5 stars are only rating it cause zayn Malik went there and it was only cause that’s where all the hardman gangsters went otherwise no one seems to of cared about there education"

"Okay first of all, the 5-star ratings are from people who rated it simply because Zayn Malik went to it. But I actually went to this school from Year 7 to Year 9 when he was there and let me tell you, his presence did not make this school any less of a pile of horse dump that it is. Most of the kids there are extremely disrespectful, talk back to the teachers, swear excessively and are bullies. It's a waste of such a beautiful campus and facilities, the kids take it for granted and do not realize how lucky they are to have so many opportunities for them to succeed in whatever field they want to be in. There are laptops for every other classroom, state-of-the-art sports facilities, classrooms specially designed for cooking, construction, beauty, dance, drama but honestly, the students don't deserve it, because they don't want to study hard in the first place. Even the food offered here is good! I barely learned anything in my time here and hardly had any friends. The students were incredibly disruptive during class and so we would end up learning nothing. I saw students around me getting bullied, fights happening everyday during break and nothing would be done about it--this is what makes it difficult to say that the management was good. They were nice and helpful, however they also turned a blind eye to the bullying that was happening. Or maybe it's just that those bullies don't learn anything, and talk back to those teachers that try to control them. I do believe that from Year 10 onward the students are mostly better, because the ones that stick around for their GCSEs are more serious about their futures. I ended up moving to a different school and was a whole year behind my class in every subject--math, biology, physics, chemistry to name a few, and had to spend a lot of time catching up. It was a very simple school that did not offer as much in terms of facilities to the students, but the students there were so hardworking and respectful. Don't let the high rating fool you. Please don't send your kid to this school."

"Nice school -_ doing my GCSE as a private candidate: polite, professional and proficient. Would recommend if you would like to take an even there has a private candidate. Don't know the school of course but exam wise, it's excellent"

"The thieving in this school during p.e. is out of control the teachers admit they are fully aware of this going on and have been for some time but say there is nothing they can do about this. They have no locks on any of the lockers is the changing room yet they still let students who have sick notes to get out of p.e./swimming to hang around changing rooms while the rest of class do p.e./swimming even though they are well known thieves it makes me wonder if the teachers are in on this"
