School Description

Staff at Birmingham Independent College know pupils well. They take the time to understand pupils’ individual needs and build positive relationships with them. One pupil, speaking for many, told inspectors, ‘Because of this college, our needs are not a hindrance to us.’ Pupils achieve well because of the care and support they receive. Pupils are happy and generally behave well. They enjoy college and make positive contributions in lessons. Leaders do not tolerate incidents of bullying. They make sure that pupils feel safe and know where to go if they have a concern. Leaders have high expectations for what they want pupils to learn. They have prioritised the need to ensure pupils leave the college with key knowledge and skills in English, mathematics and science. Leaders also ensure that pupils complete other qualifications in areas such as food hygiene. Leaders are keen to extend pupils’ experiences beyond the classroom. As part of an enrichment programme, many pupils take part in karate lessons every week. Other pupils have worked with a charity to put together bags at a food bank and prepare meals for local elderly residents.
