introduction

BEDFORD SCHOOL

The teenage years are exciting and full of boldness, creativity and fun; they are also as fragile as they are pivotal. Whilst constantly aiming to inspire (high quality teaching, strong relationships and a wonderful environment combine to achieve this), Bedford School also provides a safe framework from which such energy can thrive. We believe that being a boys’ school certainly helps us to provide the security and structure that boys need during the teenage years to pursue their interests and passions for life. Academic results are very strong and in 2021 80% of our leaver applicants went on to a Russell Group or Times Top 30 university at the end their time with us. We are particularly proud in this pandemic year that no fewer than 11 boys secured places to read Medicine. A number of others will pursue their interests into the art, drama or musical worlds, or to overseas universities or into high level apprenticeships with global firms. We believe, however, that academic results themselves only matter in so far as choice over the next stage is concerned; far more important is the curiosity, ingenuity and sense of fun which academic, and other, interests inspire – and therefore the sort of man each boy becomes. Furthermore, good manners, consideration for others, an ability to communicate effectively in both formal and informal settings are even more important today than they have ever been in a world which is becoming increasingly competitive. Boys here are busy, enjoy life and build not only happy memories, but also strong foundations for interesting and varied lives. Do, please, come and meet them! And I look forward to meeting you, too. James Hodgson, Head Master

Assessments

International Pupils

Year 9 (13+) Pre-Test (optional) Candidates who register early for 13+entry are invited to sit the Independent Schools Examination Board (ISEB) Common Pre-Test at their current school. The pre-test can be taken when a candidate is in either Year 6 or 7 (and currently anytime between November and March of those academic years). Conditional and unconditional places can be offered at this stage.

Bedford School welcomes applications from boys who live overseas. We require boys to have a reasonable level of fluency in English to ensure that they can thrive academically and socially right from the first day.

The Common Pre-Test is a computer-based test in English, mathematics, and verbal and non-verbal reasoning and is designed to enable all children to demonstrate their academic potential without excessive preparation. Further details on the Year 9 Pre-Test can be found on the school website. Year 9 (13+) Entrance Assessments All boys who are looking for entry into Year 9 are assessed in English and mathematics. In addition, we assess underlying ability using the Bedford School Aptitude Test (BSAT). This is not a test of knowledge but is designed to identify a student’s intelligence, processing capacity and working memory. The test is taken online at Bedford School. Boys who perform particularly well on the BSAT are invited back for further academic scholarship testing and an interview before we select scholarship recipients. Sample familiarisation tests are available on the school website. Year 10 (14+) Entrance Assessments All boys who are seeking entry into Year 10 are assessed in English, mathematics and underlying ability. Sixth Form Entrance Assessments Boys are asked to indicate their preferred A-Level or IB subject choices in advance of their assessment day. They sit an underlying ability assessment and have an interview with a senior member of staff. We also request a confidential reference from the Headteacher of their current school and an indication of their predicted GCSE grades. In addition, boys applying for a 16+ academic scholarship are required to sit two subject papers of their choice. Offers made after the Sixth Form assessments in January are conditional on performance at GCSE and are confirmed once GCSE results are published in August. Details of grade requirements for the Sixth Form can be found on the school website. Further details on all our entrance assessments can be found on our website within the Admissions section www.bedfordschool.org.uk/admissions.

Registered boys can be tested from the September prior to the year of entry. The assessments may take place at Bedford School, at the British Council or through an approved agent. We will also request a confidential reference from the Headteacher of each applicant's current school, a copy of his last two school reports (in English), and if we have not had the opportunity to meet with the pupil, we will conduct an interview via Microsoft Teams. However, we strongly encourage boys and their families to visit the school, wherever possible. Year 9 (13+) and Year 10 (14+) Boys whose first language is not English will be required to sit an EAL assessment (English as an Additional Language) as well as a mathematics paper and an underlying ability assessment.

Guardianship

Families living overseas must appoint a guardian in the UK for their son. The guardian will have the authority to act on behalf of the parents, if necessary, and make arrangements for time away from school and travel. All guardians who are not relatives must be AEGIS or BSA accredited.

Visas

Any pupil who wishes to study in the UK and does not hold a British passport must have a visa to allow him to do so. The school is able to provide a CAS (Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies) once a place has been accepted. Further information may be obtained from the UK Government Visas and Home Office websites.

Pre-Sixth Form (15+) The Pre-Sixth Form course is a one-year intensive GCSE programme, primarily aimed at international students. It is intended that boys see this as a foundation year before moving into the Sixth Form at Bedford School. Boys whose first language is not English will be required to sit an EAL assessment (English as an Additional Language) as well as a mathematics paper and an underlying ability assessment. Sixth Form (16+) Boys will be required to indicate their choice of A-Level or IB subjects. All boys will then sit a written examination in EAL assessment (English as an Additional Language) in addition to subject papers for either three of their chosen A-Levels, or for their three higher level subjects for the International Baccalaureate (IB).

Generous scholarships are available to current boys and external candidates as they enter Year 9 (13+), and to external candidates only at Year 12 (16+). In exceptional circumstances, boys may be considered for a scholarship on entry to the school in Years 10 and 11 (Pre-Sixth Form course), subject to the availability of funding. The scholarships are awarded to boys who excel academically or show outstanding talent in art, drama, music or sport (including golf). Detailed information about scholarships available at 13+ and 16+ can be found on our website as well as within our scholarship booklet, which can be requested from our Admissions Team. The deadline for scholarship applications is 1 December in the year prior to intended entry.

Bursaries (Fee Assistance)

Each year we offer some financial support through bursaries to parents of boys with significant potential in any of our scholarship fields, who would otherwise be unable to afford the fees. We welcome bursary applications from parents who require financial assistance for their son to join us at our key entry points in Year 7 (11+), Year 9 (13+) and Year 12 (16+). All our academically competitive bursary awards are subject to means-testing of family income and capital. Bursaries of up to 100% of school fees are possible. The deadline for bursary applications is 5pm on 1 December in the year prior to intended entry. The online bursary application along with school registration must be completed by this date, if you wish to be considered for a bursary. Please note, fee assistance cannot be offered to applicants at any other time. Detailed information about our bursaries can be found on the website.

Bedford School operates a six-day timetable, with lessons for all boys on Saturday mornings. This longer working week allows for three whole afternoons of sport and helps to ensure that boys enjoy an evenly paced and productive schedule. Monday to Friday, the day starts with a tutor group period, where boys catch up on all of the latest notices and key information that they will need for the day ahead and beyond. Lessons then begin at 8.55am (8.40am on Saturdays). On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, boys have eight lesson periods. On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, lessons finish after period 5 (lunchtime) to enable the boys to enjoy a wide range of sports and activities during the afternoon. Monday

Tuesday

Twice per week, all boys in the Upper School come together for a whole school assembly in the Great Hall. There is also one Chapel assembly each week. Beyond the timetabled school day, there is a wide range of extracurricular activities on offer for boys, as well as academic clinics for additional support and guidance. Boys who need to stay later, or who wish to study or complete their prep (homework), can join boarders for dinner (for a small charge) and stay for supervised prep in the library until 7.00pm.

life at bedford

BEDFORD SCHOOL

Life at Bedford Academic

The Bedford Curriculum, extending well beyond the requirements of the National Curriculum, is structured to provide a balanced and varied choice of subjects, which will cater towards each individual boy’s strengths.

Houses Boys are organised into houses, with each boarding house twinned with a day house. These houses form the heart of our pastoral care system, providing a sense of belonging to every boy, whether a day boy or a boarder.

Our broad and traditional curriculum prepares boys for GCSE and IGCSE exams, and for either A-Level or International Baccalaureate (IB) exams in the Sixth Form. Boys typically take ten GCSE/IGCSEs and three A-Levels. A number of boys choose to study four A-Levels with the option to drop to three, which brings with it an increased commitment to the school's Community Partnerships Programme. At A-Level, all boys undertake the Bedford School Independent Project (BSIP) in the Lower Sixth; this is a piece of independent research on a topic of their own choosing. Some boys then opt to convert this work into an Extended Project Qualification (EPQ). All IB boys undertake an Extended Essay.

• • • • • •

Regular lectures and talks from both staff and visiting speakers, as well as workshops, take place alongside lunchtime and after school academic clinics.

Our boarding houses are small in size and run as an extended family by each Housemaster and his or her spouse, supported by an Assistant Housemaster and a team of Tutors, matrons and domestic staff.

Pastoral

Vertical Tutor Groups We operate a vertical tutor group system, which allows new and younger boys to grow and develop alongside older boys; this encourages both learning and responsibility, removes peer group pressure and helps to guide and inspire our younger boys, while developing leadership skills in the older ones.

Pastoral care lies at the heart of everything that we do as a school. We believe that every boy needs to be happy in order to succeed, and that selfesteem is key for boys as they move through the school and beyond.

“The house system and the diversity within the school community are real strengths of the school and underpin the consideration which pupils show for each other.” Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) Report

Bedford School is alive and active seven days per week, ensuring that not only the boarders but also day boys benefit from our strong boarding ethos. There are very few schools that a boy can attend as a day boy, still be in the majority, and yet share classes, teams and friendships with others from around the world. On the playing field, sport is greatly enhanced by classroom teachers who work alongside the school's professional sports staff to deliver outstanding sport for all. Through shared experiences and common goals, staff and boys develop a great camaraderie, a deep understanding of each other as individuals and a mutual respect.

Boys may board on a termly or weekly basis. Those who choose the latter go home after lessons on Saturdays, subject to school commitments, and return either on Sunday evening or early on Monday morning.

For continuity, throughout his time at the school, each boy’s Tutor remains the same. Each Tutor follows his or her tutees' academic progress closely and, in partnership with parents, provides direct and individual support and guidance. Together with Housemasters, Tutors work to ensure that boys settle in quickly and successfully.

Activities

An extensive and diverse range of activities, clubs and societies are available to boys. The clubs and societies, which range from general interest to academic, from the arts to sport, typically run at lunchtimes and between 4.30pm and 6.00pm during the week. From Astronomy to Duke of Edinburgh Awards to the Combined Cadet Force, there is something for every boy. A wealth of academic extension opportunities are available to all year groups each week in the form of academic societies, as well as academic clinics that provide additional support and guidance. The majority of clubs are open to all boys and are free of charge. Please refer to the website for the full list of clubs and societies this year.

Community Partnership Programme

Now in its third year, our Community Partnership Programme for the Lower Sixth (Year 12) ensures that all of our boys, wherever in the world they are from, play a meaningful part in our local community while they are at the school. Our programme has been developed to ensure that it creates true partnerships that are equally valued and respected by the boys, the school and those that we support.

The Bedford School Association

The Bedford School Association (BSA) represents the Bedford Prep Parents' Guild, Parents' Guild (Upper School), Past Parents Association, Old Bedfordians Club (alumni) and Bedford School Foundation (development). The BSA works with all these groups to create a sense of attachment and an active network which positively supports the school. Through numerous events, reunions, sports fixtures and Eagle Connect (our new online networking platform) they work to bring the school community closer together. The Parents’ Guild The Parents’ Guild is a group of parents and guardians of boys at the school who organise social events and are also responsible for the running of the nearly new shop, where pre-loved uniform is available for purchase. The Parents’ Guild also raises funds to be used for projects that benefit the boys, as well as support the school’s chosen charities. The Parents’ Guild is always keen to receive new ideas and welcomes anyone interested in getting involved.

Boys have worked in partnership with local state primary schools giving language lessons, playing the piano for choir groups, leading extra sport practices, giving guitar recitals and tuition, and supporting individual reading programmes, as well as regularly visiting and entertaining residents in a number of local care homes. By the time they leave the Upper Sixth (Year 13), each boy will have contributed to our local community through a long term (minimum of one term) and meaningful partnership. We see this sort of engagement as hugely beneficial to the boys in ensuring that they grow into responsible citizens and, hopefully, helpful to the community in which they live.

“Pupils understand that the decisions they make may affect their future and reflect both on themselves and upon the community of which they are a part.” Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) Report
