Hi looking for reviews on the above academy which seems very good academically but would like feedback on all the other aspects. DD is only in year 3 but I'm already researching secondary schools options. A bad and traumatic experience with asbestos in her former primary school, force me to focus on new build schools only for her education which makes everything even more stressful. DD is confident and loves learning.. academics are very important but her general happiness too. I saw some very negative google reviews from some students but this happens with all schools and is usually from students holding "a gruge" rather than the reality (well I hope) Any suggestions of schools and reviews from parents on Paddington academy would be really appreciated. Thank you!

If you can, join Maida Vale Parents FB page. There was a very negative post about it recently. Not saying that is representative of the school. It also mentions a PA parents’ group on FB. Personally, the behaviour of the kids in the morning and afternoon is utterly appalling and intimidating. I’d do plenty of research and make sure it’s a positive environment for your child.
