Byrchall High School is a modern, forward looking school, rich in traditional values. Ours is a school where high standards of attainment and behaviour are expected from every student; each individual matters and everyone has something special to contribute.
We encourage every student to achieve high standards and to develop an enthusiastic, problem-solving approach to their work so that they feel confident with their academic and social skills, inside and outside school. We strive to ensure that all children reach their potential.
Child Sexual Exploitation
CHILD SEXUAL EXPLOITATION (CSE) IS A FORM OF SEXUAL ABUSE THAT INVOLVES THE MANIPULATION AND/OR COERCION OF YOUNG PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 18 INTO SEXUAL ACTIVITY.
The National Child Exploitation Awareness Day aims to highlight the issues surrounding Child Exploitation; encouraging everyone to think, spot and speak out against abuse and adopt a zero tolerance to adults developing inappropriate relationships with children or children exploiting and abusing their peers. This poster shows some of the signs to look out for. If you are worried about a child who may be at risk, please contact the pastoral team in school who will be able to offer support.

Our Deepest Sympathy...
We are saddened at the loss of HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. We offer our deepest sympathy to the Queen and all members of the Royal Family.
He was the founder of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme which has transformed the lives of millions of young people over the years. We will continue to support our young people involved in the award to develop their skills, confidence and resilience and continue his legacy.
