"Absolute dog water of a school . I broke my ankle there and I was stuck in reception for an hour waiting for them to finally call my parents . I suppose a cup of water will help with a broken ankle. No support at all man. I do not recommend this school. Teachers are sound like , but there's just no support"

"Birches Head Academy. I find it unfair this school as a whole is labeled so negativity, staff care about their pupils education & wellbeing. They have a excellent safe guarding team who work extremely well with pupils, parents & families I've personally found they do not just write kids off for challenging behaviour. They listen & value their pupils opinions & point of views. They do to the best of their ability to deal with any issues appropriately & effectively. I take my hat off to these remarkable people who work in secondary school education because I seriously could not do this job. I hope birches head academy start to be recognised for all the positive changes they've made and consistently continue to do so. Birches Head Academy, is a good school, I haven't met every member of staff, but the ones I've personally met with, are brilliant in doing their job to a high standard. There are the ones who are exceptional, then there is the rare one who goes- Above and Beyond. All these people, all staff go out of their way every day to make sure each child receives the best care & education possible, insuring each pupil is safe & well."

"I love working with the staff and students at Birches Head Academy. The staff care deeply about the students and go out of their way to provide a wide range of exciting and stimulating opportunities. It's also great to see the school developing such valuable and strong partnerships with other schools, local employers and community organisations. The students I have met and worked with are a huge asset to the school and community."
