Lets face it its not the best school in gloucester, but its not the worst. My mum sent me there when it was still known as oxstalls, as her and my father had attended the school many years ago. I graduated back in 2006, and i have to be honest i owe that school some of the best years of my life.
GIVE THE SCHOOL A BREAK AND LET IT HAVE A CHANCE TO TURN ITSELF AROUND!!!

Obviously they have decided to ignore the Labour policy which is encouring us to reduce CO2 emissions! The only answer can be that there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow ie Bishops college will be sold for housing so the education of the future of Gloucester youngsters is sacrificed on the altar of greed.

Present at the official opening, I saw this as a valuable and timely opportunity for educational advancement of an underperforming school (Oxstalls). There has been a great deal of progress, socially and educationally; and although the objective assessment indicates limited educational achievement we have a school that is creative and progressive and recognises spiritual development which is essential. Save Bishops College!!!

Closing Bishops college then takes this choice away. It doesn't matter what stage a child is in their education, a change like this can have a dramatic affect and this should not be forced to happen to the children of Bishops College. Has the government bothered to listen to the children? I think not!

Pupil and school success should not be judged by exam results alone. To increase the size of school and to take away or dilute the effect of it's faith will neggate all the progress made. It must be given time to prove itself.

I am both a governor at a primary school that sends pupils to BC and exams invigilator for BC. During the last four years I have observed year on year a marked improvement in behaviour, attitude and self esteem amongst the pupils. In my opinion this proposed change, so early in the new school's life, can only undo what has been achieved so far. BC educates children to cope with themselves and the world they will face - not to be academics.
Put pupils first.

The College is a faith school and should be retained

Closing or merging a school impairs on this. It also means potential job losses for most of the staff and with the economic climate do we really want teaching staff out looking for jobs that may not be there?

I was extremely impressed with the atmosphere of the school and the enthusiasm of the students towards their education. I had a thoroughly enjoyable morning and hate to think that these students may soon have to leave such a close nit and supportive community.
