Bedminster Down School Reviews
3 (2 reviews)
This school is amazing. It looks brilliant and has amazing facilities that even some of the best do not have access to. Unfortunately, it is ruined by a handful of students which persistently don’t show up, get sent to referral (isolation) and act genuinely anti social. Ruining the experience of other students who try hard and do the right thing.
the school is okay , some pros about this school is house office , IPS , and the food is amazing you can have slush puppies , pizza , burgers , pasta . some cons about the school are toilets always dirty and flooded and the stairs are always wet and muddy .
