Avoid this school for SEN kids
Absolutely awful school, my child has learning difficulties and got no ongoing support from school especially in the last year when she had medical issues. The toilets have shutters on them and they were coming home wetting themselves because they couldn't access the toilets in school. There was also another time they didn't have a phone when they were in year 7 and there was an accident meaning an adult couldn't get there to pick them up and the teacher wouldn't go to look where they would be...

My opinion
Seriously think this school is a joke...nothing gets done about bullying, they speak to pupils like complete rubbish...speak to parents over the phone like rubbish...its just a down hill school in my opinion...

if u like ur kid keep them away from here
most teachers are very rude and dont care about your mental health they just scream bullying is never dealt with because "they cant so anything if its out of school" they use classcharts and give negatives for silly reasons do not send your child here they wouldnt enjoy it its a horrible place to learn in the lessons are chaotic you cant focus in them, nobody cares about there education they care about having fun they dont let you inside the building at break or dinner and they dont let you go to the toilet or fill up your drink bottle either if i cant go a break and i cant go in lessons when am i meant to go?

No communication to email regarding absence
Lack of correspondence form the head and absence team Then hit you with a fine but cannot be bothered to communicate or answer emails I find very unprofessional

Good school
It’s a really great school, but some teachers r rude but you get that in most schools.mr licett is nice and will help you with anything and so will other pjos.Miss helm is quite rude and picks on students.The food is really good and my favourite teacher is probably miss Rooney or mr Grundy.Overall a good school.

Title
Bedford has average teachers and lessons however the social side including bullying and activities is terrible. The majority of teachers have no clue about how to help students with special needs nor do they deal with bullying effectively but rather take their side and blame you for being picked on. Would not recommend this school as the safety and security aspect of individual students is poor

poor standards
i attended one of the lessons and the teacher had absolutely nothing under control! i think it is fair if the class is fell of well... dumb people? but these were top people top set so i think that they need to get there students under control and not let them go wild

Brilliant school☺
I think this school is one of the best. Pastoral team always support you no matter what. They've done nothing but support us through the pandemic. Overall great school would highly recommend. There rules are 0 tolerance on bullying which is true.

One of the best schools in the area. Pastoral management team are supportive with whatever problems you've got they would bend over backwards for you wouldn't recommend any other school.☺

Absolutely wouldn't reccommend.
Terrible. No idea of school management. The head is absolutely useless as well as incompetent. Issues such as bullying are NEVER dealt with when a student is getting bullied yet, when a teacher gets bullied it's dealt with to such an extent that severely unfair punishments are dished out. Definitely wouldn't recommend this school if you want your child to be happy at school.
