Our Vision

Every student leaves Birchensale with the skills, motivation and personal qualities to enable lifelong success.

The vision of our school is embodied in the words Belong, Motivate, Succeed. We strive to ensure that everyone feels they belong in our school community; happy, valued and respected. We recognise that every Birchensale pupil deserves the best and we aim to motivate them to succeed by reaching their potential in every area of school life – academic, social, personal, physical and spiritual. We do this by ensuring that each child has access to an inclusive curriculum, which allows individuals the scope to explore their talents, challenges and supports them when needed.
