Relocating to Bedford

[taryndasilva]

We will be relocating to Bedford between 1 Aug and 1 Sept 2018. I realise many people would not recommend we do so, however, we are doing it! So I am only looking for helpful responses please to my questions and not responses telling me to look elsewhere!

Anyone sending their kids to Mark Rutherford School? If so, are your kids happy and is the sports competitive? Are there any other secondary schools you'd recommend?

Likewise are anyone sending their kids to Brickhill and/or Putnoe Primary Schools? Are they good schools? Any other recommendations of good primary schools?

Any suggestions of where to live? I would like to avoid being too near to the town center and too far out on the outskirts. I would like to keep commuting to schools and the shops to a minimum.

I'd love to hear your input. Thanks in advance.
