Birchwood High School

We're hosting a Business Breakfast on Monday 6 July (7:30–8:30am) and we’re inviting local employers to join us.
It’s a relaxed opportunity to meet other businesses, hear from Dr Anna Morrison CBE (Amazing Apprenticeships), and find out how you can get involved in supporting young people through careers initiatives.
To book a place, email [email protected]
If you’re not able to make the breakfast you can still get involved by scanning scan the QR code on the flyer to register your interest.
We’re keen to connect with local businesses and would really value your involvement.

Naples and Rome - Group 1

They are rounding off their time in Rome and Naples today after what has been an unforgettable experience! From ancient ruins to beautiful city views, they’ve had the chance to explore some truly iconic locations and immerse themselves in Italian culture.

It’s been fantastic to see students stepping outside their comfort zones, trying new things, and embracing every part of the trip with such a positive attitude.

You’ve done yourselves and Birchwood proud, well done to everyone involved!

A big thank you to the staff from both Groups.

Rome and Naples - Group 2

As our Group 2 students enjoy their final day in Italy, we’re reflecting on what an incredible trip it has been! From exploring the historic streets of Rome to experiencing the stunning sights of Naples, students have embraced every opportunity with enthusiasm and curiosity.
It has been fantastic to see them learning beyond the classroom, taking in such iconic landmarks and creating memories that will last a lifetime.
