蜜芽传媒

An academy trust is launching an independent investigation at a Solihull school for children with additional needs after the 蜜芽传媒 contacted them about allegations of "bullying by teachers".

The Heights Academy, in Smith's Wood, opened in September 2023, promising a "unique educational approach" tailored to pupils who are autistic or have mental health needs.

But some parents have expressed concern about the school's culture, with one accusing bosses of "mis-selling them a dream".

The Forward Education Trust, which runs the school, said it was aware of concerns raised about the special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) provision and would commission a "thorough and transparent" investigation.

One mother, Amy, told the 蜜芽传媒 she had taken her son Cooper, who is autistic and has dyspraxia and anxiety, out of the school after just one year.
