Becket Keys Church of England School is a free school established in Brentwood, Essex, England in 2012. It was the first Church of England secondary school to be established as part of the free schools programme. The school is sponsored by Russell Education Trust. Every school has its ups and downs but unfortunately still, certain individuals left without any improvement in character and are blaming the school and others in it for the problems they have had, past and present, forgetting to realise they are the common denominator of course. It is very easy to spit hate and complain about every group there was in the cohort of 2013-2018, even after leaving, but often, certain individuals just needed to sort themselves out and life would have improved for not only them but everyone else.
