A school has been warned funding could be withdrawn after reports of bullying and homophobic behaviour among pupils.
The Department for Education (DfE) handed the warning to the Ark Kings Academy in Birmingham following an Ofsted inspection earlier this year.
The Ofsted report found secondary pupils did not feel safe, while "bullying, derogatory language and homophobic behaviours are commonplace".
A spokesperson for the academy said it was addressing the issues raised.
The school was rated "inadequate" in almost every category, including leadership, behaviour, personal development and quality of education.
The official Termination Warning Notice to the school cited a range of issues picked up by Ofsted for the decision to potentially remove funding.
