GCSE Results 2026
Birkenhead School is celebrating another excellent set of GCSE results,...
What can a former Head of Sky News, an Oxford Professor or a Clinical Psychologist teach our students?
Quite a lot, as it happens.
Named after Old Birkonian Baron Nicholls of Birkenhead, the Nicholls Lecture Series brings leading professionals into School to share their knowledge, experiences and perspectives.
This term opened with Old Birkonian Nick Pollard, former Head of Sky News, who explored the evolution of modern media and challenged students to consider its influence on our world.
He begins a wide-ranging programme featuring speakers from broadcasting, film, psychology, medicine, sustainable farming, the Royal Navy and veterinary education.
More than a series of talks, it brings learning to life—challenging assumptions, introducing new perspectives and helping students imagine what might come next.
Current Year 11 and prospective students can discover more at our Sixth Form Open Evening.
📅 Thursday 1st October

Massive congratulations to all our wonderful GCSE artists on their well-deserved results today; your hard work paid off. Congratulations also to the full 2026 Yr11 Birkenhead School cohort for all they achieved. @birkenheadschool #proudteachers #gcseart
After a busy and competitive season, our U18 girls finished their campaign at the Cheshire County Finals last week. Facing some of the strongest school teams in the county, the girls showed great determination, teamwork and resilience throughout the afternoon. Against tough opposition, their effort and commitment never wavered, and they represented the school with real pride right to the final whistle.
A special mention goes to our Upper Sixth players, who pulled on the school shirt for the final time. Thank you for your leadership, commitment and the example you have set for the younger players over the years. We wish you all the very best for the future, you will be greatly missed in the hockey programme.
