BAC's inspectors reported on an overall excellent standard of provision. They particularly noted that the high standard of teaching was supported by a strong personal tutor system which brought every student into direct contact with the senior management. Academic facilities included modern science laboratories, a good art room, excellent multimedia provision and classrooms equipped with excellent IT, audio and video facilities. There was excellent pastoral support, both for local students and those from overseas.
