Praising Birchensale Middle School’s Remarkable Transformation

I celebrated the official opening of Birchensale Middle School’s new extension, marking a dramatic turnaround from an ‘Inadequate’ to a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating. The new facilities include six classrooms, an enlarged sports hall and improved play areas. I praised the leadership, staff and school community for their dedication and teamwork, highlighting the significant investment in education for Redditch. I said the transformation is a source of pride and demonstrates what can be achieved when a school community unites around excellence. The extension will support high-quality teaching and extracurricular activities for pupils in Batchley, Brockhill and the surrounding area.
