The Bedford Free School has successfully passed all the stringent examinations bestowed on Ofsted by the government regarding their policy, site checks and procedure, before they throw the school open to the two hundred students who are ready to join the school in September.
Mark Lehain, the acting Principal of the free school stated that they were really happy to avail of the sanction and acceptance of Ofsted for their new school, the premier school of its kind at Bedfordshire. He added that they hope its addition to the existing schools would be accepted with pleasure.
He went on to say that they have the finances, the staff and almost 200 children and parents all waiting and ready and that they were eagerly anticipating that the dream would soon become real.
The Bedford Free School would start functioning on September of the current year with eleven and thirteen year old students ready for classes. They have already commenced work on getting everything set at the location in Caludwell Street and they have plans to ensure that it would be transformed into a fully operating school structure.
There are still a couple of vacant seat as people go up the waiting list to take a transfer to the Bedford Free School from the middle schools in the locality or to alter their of attending a new school from an upper school.
The Bedford Free School would be financed completely by the government and would be a school where there would be no fees, and it would be a non selective school where there would only be few children in the classes but would provide good courses of study.
