Queensbridge School

[EduCativ]

Queensbridge School is arguably the most mixed school in Birmingham. The fact that it is judged to be outstanding is because all groups of pupils do exceptionally well here. Every opportunity is taken to create deep and memorable learning experiences that strive for academic excellence and the personal development of each individual.
As an 11-16 school we are proud of achievements that include our young people going on to the country’s top universities and following the most prestigious careers. The Arts and Sport both stand out as strengths and we are known for our innovative approach to the curriculum, especially in Year 7. However, it is the value of our young people experiencing our diverse community so positively that gives them a most successful launch into their adult lives.
Queensbridge School is committed to improving the outcomes of all learners regardless of their additional needs. The majority of young people with SEN will have their needs met through classroom teaching and regular assessment to monitor progress. S
Queensbridge will provide every pupil with a highly stimulating, varied, and rigorous program of activities outside of the classroom environment. We will provide opportunities in which pupils can thrive, develop and embed new skills and create a passion outside of their timetabled lessons. Pupils will be able to positively respond to artistic, musical, and sporting activities, to name but a few, that form the heart of our ethos as a performing arts school.
Each term, all pupils have the opportunity to select from the menu of before and after school clubs that departments have to offer. Pupils can develop relationships by playing in one of the school’s vast number of sports teams, they can take a risk and try something that they have never experienced before in Chess Club, Dohl or Urban Fusions or they can experience a production within Dance, Music or Drama.
We are very proud of our curriculum. Quest in Year 7 is designed to allow for relationships to develop in dedicated blocks of time throughout the week. This ensures that students settle quickly from their primary schools.
Pupils across school are actively encouraged to explore challenging, relevant issues to confidently express and justify their opinions. A wide range of subjects at Key Stage 4 enables students to develop their understanding and interests.
