Any adverse impact will need to be balanced against the benefits of establishing the new school. Background 2.

The school plans to open in 2012 with a total of 200 pupils (100 yr7 and 100 yr9), reaching 500 pupils at full capacity by 2014. 3. Bedford Free School aims to serve the area of Bedford and Kempston, where educational standards are below national average and have been for some time. Despite a long term aspiration to move to a two tier system, most of the schools in the area are three tier and as such, this Impact Assessment focuses on the direct impact of the Free School on both Middle and Upper Schools throughout Bedford and Kempston as well considering any indirect impact on Lower schools, Further Education (FE) institutions and other types of educational provision in the area. Education in Bedford 4. Bedford Borough currently run a largely three tier education system.
