My review of bhbi
The worst 2 years of my life
This school is abusive and has so many irrational and strict rules.
There would be times when the weather and the traffic would be very bad that there would be so many students late that the line would go out of the front office door but they would still take away our entire lunch time for just being 5 minutes late. The receptionist would always say "you should have checked the weather and gotten here early" purposely ignoring the fact that what they are saying is not practical for a lot of people.
They make students do PE at both the start of the day and at the end of the day then criticize us for not having the energy at the end of the day. PE would sometimes include running around the whole school 3 times and at the end of the day some more cardio. They would also force us at the end of the day to change our PE uniforms back into our regular ones just to leave.
There was also that activity (I forgot what it's called) where they would have us go from house to house and request that people pay us a certain amount per question we get correct in a trivia test and we would give it to the school to "pay for future laptops". They would guilt trip us with the excuse that they need the money to "pay for future technology and that the laptops we're using were from previous students" I highly doubt that they actually dedicated that money towards future laptops. At the end of the day, the staff would have a buffet and I am sure that's where most of the money went. The most outrageous part of this was if we got less than 50/100 questions right on that trivia then they would make us do the test all over again even though our first results were the final amount we would get from the public so what's the point (torture)?
The teachers were irrational and abusive and did not help us solve our problems in any way. If we made one mistake they would kick us out of the entire despite being there to "teach us". Do not send your children here unless you want to put them through two years of trauma.

Only down side is the fact that the rm 19 teacher made her whole class skip a important assembly meeting and made her class do there learner pathways like there was noting going on and I honestly think that is so wrong
But I really like this school and how they teach and I am also happy to have a nice good teacher that cares for all of us
