About Burntwood

Welcome To Burntwood...

I hope you enjoy visiting our school through this website and that it gives you an accurate sense of our school community and its many achievements. At Burntwood we are proud of the established tradition of success that encourages our students to be independent, articulate young women who take power and control over their lives in an informed and intelligent way.

Burntwood School is recognised as a Science Specialist School and has the coveted 'Sportsmark' and 'Artsmark Gold' awards. Examination results continue to be excellent at Key Stage, 4 and 5 with outstanding value added outcomes.

Burntwood School is an inclusive community, this is recognised by the Rights Respecting UNICEF Gold Award. We provide opportunities for all our learners, whether they have special educational needs or are part of our more able cohort. I believe that our students deserve the best and at Burntwood we understand the importance of a collaborative approach between staff, students and parents, working together to support the students in reaching their full potential.

Burntwood's students benefit from being educated by a dedicated team of professionals. Staff and students work together in pleasant surroundings with high quality facilities. This combination ensures that we continue to deliver on our mission statement providing:

'The best education today for the women of tomorrow'
