impractical cult like school
just an awful school, I’m all for young ones having discipline and structure but the rules there are just oppressive, stripping away any freedom from the kids and removing any agency they have to fight for change in their own school, they even censor parents on social media and BAN THEM from the school if they post or comment any well deserved criticism, they also treat the kids like second class citizens and criminals, in all of the assemblies I attended because one of my children had prize gi...

Honest Review BBI
Rating: 1/5 I was studying in Years 7 and 8. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this school to parents. I had serious concerns with both of them: 1. **Bullying was not handled properly**: When I was bullied in both years, the issues were not addressed in a mature or effective way by my teachers. 2. **Lack of empathy and poor communication**: During parent-teacher meetings, my year 7 teacher spoke rudely to my parents. In class, my year 8 teacher would publicly scold students for n...

Do not send your kids here
Worst place I've ever attended. I was being relentlessly bullied and STALKED the entire time, and nobody did anything. Education is TERRIBLE, teachers are RUDE and so are the staff. Nothing fun to do, very bad infrastructure and horrible overpriced food shop. Don't send your kids here unless you want them to off themself.

never come if you want to learn
This school is terrible its lucky i'm giving it 2 stars but otherwise is so bad you rather get bullied or be the bully and either you want to do something fun the teacher blames you for something you didn't do like teach i didn't did it was this guy and they are like nah I saw you and they always start glazing the popular students like the other class gets special treatment while in the other hand we are waiting inside of class the only fun thing is the learning and half of the people are just there to date

Serious concerns
A concerning situation has arisen in the school system: A teacher was unable to answer a math question, and when this was pointed out by the student’s parents, the teacher stopped communicating with the student until graduation. When parents call or visit the school office, they are often ignored — treatment that may even vary depending on skin colour. The Deputy Principal has suggested that students simply transfer to another school if parents are dissatisfied, rather than addressing the issues...

Why BBI is a bad school
First of all the teachers are really biased and only give stars or good grades to students who they like. One of the deputy’s is really crazy and called the police on a student for a fake account they made ages ago like 5 months The tuck shop is overpriced and serves unhealthy food I do not recommend sending your child here

PLEASE don't send your kids here.
Honestly, If I could give this school 0 stars I would. One of the worst schools I have ever been to. I am a sporty kid and did a lot of PE/Sports, I went to this school a few years ago. I still have barely anything good to say about it. The stars system is degrading and creates segregation within the student body. Those with higher stars stay with others with higher stars. Those with lower stars are left to rot. The whole stars system is disgusting and needs to be removed from schools. BHBI does nothing to combat bullying and discriminatory behaviour. To the extent at which teachers are apart of the problem. It is a school where you are considered GUILTY no matter the crime. You are treated like you are a prisoner and do not have space for independent thinking and making choices for your self. Please reconsider sending your children here. On behalf of most of the former students here, please don't make your children suffer the way we did. Tuck Shop was pretty good.

From a current university student, AVOID this school
This is the worst school possible, as a current university student, I can confidently say that this school teaches you nothing and you are better off home schooling your kids, unless of course you want your kids to get bullied and teacher obvious do jack shi about it, they do not care about the student. Only exception is by paying a 'donation' to exchange for the stars, which stars suppose to mean 'achievement' but it's obvious just a way to grab money. If your kids doesn't have 10+ stars, the t...

not a particularly good school.
It wasn't as good as i expected, i had some good times there, although the principal and like 80% of the teachers there are really strict. recently my little brother came to me and said the principal banned praying on school grounds which is really unnecessary and isn't pretty inclusive, even though that's what they promote.

RECOMMENDED (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)
BBI is ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars because they are top notch at keeping their students fit and healthy for example (fitness) including Block run, Turf running, move and grove, and much more. The only reason people are giving this school bad ratings is because they are lazy and are too unfit to do cross-country and fitness!. BBI tries to keep their school clean and tidy, and makes sure there are no rubbish lying around the school. 97% of the teachers are good and the 3% are just way too strict giving there whole class in trouble for no reason or put them in RnC for a rubbish reason. IF YOUR CHILD IS LAZY DO NOT COME TO THIS SCHOOL BUT IF YOU WANT THEM TO BE FIT AND HEALTHY 100% RECOMENDED ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐If I could give it 10000/5 I would⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My review of bhbi
I love this school cause I have the best friends and I can’t believe how many friends I made 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

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 peo...
