About the school
North continues to celebrate success with GCSE and A-level results with both the sixth form and year 9 intake both over-subscribed.
With a reputation for academic success and performance within the top schools in the county, North has transformed to be a destination school for the area.
The school prides itself on referring to its North Family as it celebrates its inclusivity, high standards of pastoral care and academic rigour in the classroom.
Having received external verification from Ofsted that the school is ‘Good’ it now means that the community of Bromsgrove have a strong school offer, wherever they live in the town.
North Bromsgrove’s catchment area is wide and draws in families from many schools.
The school has been recognised by Ofsted as a ‘Good’ school across all areas: ‘Leaders, staff, pupils and students have worked together to make North Bromsgrove High School a better place to work and learn.
They have been successful. The school’s ‘CARE’ values of ‘community, aspiration, respect and endeavour’ have been at the heart of their work. A calm andmorderly culture helps pupils to feel safe.
Leaders have maintained their high expectations of pupils.’
Along with the core subjects, the school prides itself on the breadth of the offer at GCSE from Psychology and Dance to Computer Science, Engineering and Business Studies – there is a choice for all.
The school has recently refurbished the sixth form area to accommodate the huge increase in numbers as the students choose to stay on and study A-levels.
With A-level subjects such as English Literature, Physics, Politics and Criminology, there is breadth of choice.
The senior leadership team led by Mr Gibson, who took the school on as an experienced leader, has strengthened the school, whilst attracting experienced staff to join the
team. With Mrs Ingram as Senior Deputy Headteacher and Mrs Hodgson as Deputy Headteacher, the school’s leadership is stable, secure and long-serving.
With excellent behaviour, a uniform that proudly displays the house ties, along with welcoming staff and students, it is an opportunity not to be missed.
