Birkenhead School is hosting a virtual open event for new sixth form applicants on Tuesday, January 26. The school is looking to widen its accessibility over the coming years by offering Sixth Form Access Scholarships for students outside of the independent school system. Students who wish to apply need to impress at interview, have a good and positive attitude, a desire to seek out opportunities and be predicted excellent GCSE grades at 7-9. Birkenhead School Paul Vicars, Headmaster at Birkenhead School, said: “These are exciting times at Birkenhead School. The last year has been tough for society as a whole but the students’ approach to remote learning, their desire to learn and resilience to disruption since the September return has been both humbling and uplifting.
