At The Birkenhead Park School, we are committed to achieving 'Ambition and Excellence for All.' We provide a high-quality academic education within a calm, inclusive and purposeful environment, while supporting students to develop into independent, well-rounded young people of strong character.

Central to our work is the BePART educational ethos, which defines the values and behaviours expected of everyone in our school community:

POSITIVITY – We are positive about what we do and what others can do.
AMBITION – We will work to raise aspirations and develop a strong desire for success.
RESILIENCE – We will be determined and not give up when faced with difficulties.
THOUGHTFULNESS – We treat everyone with respect and consideration.

These values underpin everything we do, whether as teachers, support staff or students. They shape our curriculum, our behaviour expectations and our approach to personal development, ensuring consistency and clarity across all aspects of school life.

We believe that all students can achieve their full potential through purposeful hard work, high expectations and high-quality teaching. This belief is informed by evidence from educational science and psychology, and guides our commitment to continual improvement in teaching, learning and support.

In 2023, Ofsted recognised that the school is on a “rapid journey of improvement.” For parents and students, this means a school with rising expectations, improving standards of behaviour and learning, and a clear, sustained focus on ensuring that every child receives the support, challenge and care they need to succeed.
