I have removed my previous review here…read more There's no question the standard of teaching at Gateways is excellent in many areas, the 6th form in particular. The issue is that there are gaps in a lot of what the school does. My children attended Gateways but all came away with very negative feelings and vowed never to send their children here should the opportunity appear. All of them suffered bullying - an issue which wasn't uncommon - about which little was done. In one instance the school had full knowledge of what was going on and took little action towards the perpetrators. In addition to this should any criticism be directed towards any member of staff the school is quick to protect whoever it is. Some staff members behaved in poor fashion towards one of my children during an incident on a school trip but at a meeting with senior teachers to discuss this it was denied that any problem took place so no action was taken. After my children left I arranged to meet the head of the school governors to address the issues my children suffered. He appeared responsive to the issues but after our meeting and an email from me thanking him for his time I heard absolutely nothing. That was my last contact with the school. That's poor on any level. The headmistress at the time of writing was also very unresponsive to issues I raised during my children's time at Gateways. So I'm left with very mixed feelings concerning the school. On reflection I wouldn't have selected Gateways as there are many other good options in the area.

She is noticed, her work paid attention to, her social interaction kept an eye on to ensure she is happy. I've had chatty calls from the school, just to check how she is getting on from my point of view! Fantastic!

Looking at the place you have to laugh really. It looks like it could just fall apart.

The school is an all boys Roman Catholic secondary school and has a great reputation in Bradford. There are boys from ages 11 to 18 here and around 1200 students attend the school. It's in a small village not far from Bradford city centre. The standard of education here has always been very high and remains so to this day. There's talk of the school merging with the girls catholic school located just down the road, hence the new buildings popping up around the school. The teachers on the whole were pretty good there. It's a real top place to go to school!

The first time we took our son on a visit he described Breckenbrough as 'my world'. Since he started at Breck my son is happy, less stressed and has better self esteem. The staff understand these boys and stretch them but in a way with which they can cope. The extra-curricular activities are amazing - my son's previous school couldn't cope with him on a school trip without me being there but through Breck he has been abseiling, orienteering, motorcycling, even on a day trip to Edinburgh. He is now keen to learn and has favourite subjects such as French. While he previously would describe school as 'hell', he now says school is brilliant.
