- **1/5** — Don't Go To BGN!: This school has really got to change, how can you let students use their phone and vape and the teachers do nothing about it. I have Muslim friends who struggle to find a full course meal here because the vegan options taste bad to them and the food isn't religiously slaughtered. The teachers don't care about your learning, only when Ofsted inspectors come in, they will act nice and the teachers are salty, mean, sarcastic, condescending and just lazy. *(Apr 2025)*

- **1/5** — Blessed George Napier is a horrible school, i hope they see this: Absolutely horrible, students get bullied and threatened, teachers do not respect the students and the school system is horrible. The toilets are broke. due to students trashing them. The teachers are aware of the vaping and bullying but do nothing about it. The teachers pick on certain students for no reason which causes uncertainty and sadness for the students and get told off for not participating even though they are put to work in a horrible environment. There food is horrible and old. Its … *(Sep 2024)*
