"Worst school in Bradford"

Absolutely horrendous school my children where bullied for two years and the school did nothing at one point there was 5 fully grown women waiting outside to beat up my 12 year old daughter racism just gets brushed under the carpet unless it fits there narrative I removed my children on advice from the police who said this school is on their radar the teachers are incompetent and the lack of safeguarding is shocking.

"My experience"

Lack of communication, receptionist is very rude left various messages for teachers no one has been in touch.

I feel my child has had no support in school the teachers are not compassionate about they job.

I'm very disappointed as now l have to get private tuition for my child he's seem to be learning more in tuition then school.

Lack of homework no support although my child struggles and it's not explained properly.

Very disappointed although my child could of done better with more support and very upsetting because he does not the the basic, as the tuition centre was shocked with his learning.

"Mixed Feelings"

We're still getting used to the school's system and routines, but we're impressed with the facilities and the passion of the teachers. Our child has settled in well and seems to enjoy their classes. However, we're finding the communication with teachers a bit tricky at times. Fingers crossed for a smoother ride in the coming months!

"Best School Decision Ever!"

We moved to Bradford for this school and it's been the best decision ever! The staff are so supportive and the values of integrity, kindness and excellence are truly embedded in the students. My child has thrived here and can't wait for their GCSEs!

"Excellent Education and Community"

My daughter attended BUH for her entire secondary education and I couldn't be prouder of the person she's become. The teaching staff were always available to support her and the school's focus on kindness and empathy has been a game-changer. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a well-rounded education!
