Teaching & academics

Birtley House is inspected under the Independent Schools Inspectorate framework. A striking 27 per cent of pupils receive SEN support, well above what many schools record, which suggests a setting geared towards children who benefit from additional or individualised help. Combined with the school's small numbers, this points to teaching that can be closely tailored to each pupil.
