Outwood Academy Bydales Reviews
3 (2 reviews)
It has good food and good rooms and good teachers I think it is really good with no need for improvement
This school is terrible, my eldest daughter went here around 5 years ago and my youngest joined when she left. From what i’ve heard/seen first and second hand; This school is incapable of teaching correctly and they do not care about the students. All this school wants is a good ofsted report. Don’t enroll your child into Bydales, unless you want them to be miserable.
