“I spent 15 years at Bridgewater School and can honestly say that I would not be the person I am today if it wasn’t for the first-class teaching and pastoral care. The smaller classes in Sixth Form enabled me to get the extra support I needed to boost my confidence and allow me to fully understand the work I was set. Also, whilst in Sixth Form I was able to do several extra-curricular activities, which allowed me to develop my skills and try something new.

Simply put, I loved my time at school and Sixth Form, and would go back in a heartbeat.”
