Not good anymore
My worst nightmare, referring sending my children. It used to be a great school but after chang in management it went downhill
Don't send your child to this school!
Since the change in management the school has gone downhill, I regret sending my children to Bishop Walsh.
Shite.
Horrible. Never send your kid here unless you want them to come out totally drained mentally and physically.
Amazing School
Amazing school with staff who truly care about their job and the students .Fabulous leadership and we love the discipline and strict boundaries .It makes such a difference And it’s massively noticed when you see students from other schools.My child is a different child as they didn’t have anywhere the same confidence at primary school as they do now and got the brilliant staff at bishop walsh to thank for that.Every day so grateful for the amazing staff that work here and they deserve an award .Hope they get recognition one day.
Awful.
Teachers don’t care about anything other than religion and grades at the expense of childrens mental health. You have religion forced down your throats. One of my essay convulsions wasn’t even marked because I said that I didn’t agree with catholics in RE. Lack of sex ed, distasteful assemblies on sexual assault in which they said “don’t put yourself in a situation where you can be raped” and too strict on things that do not matter.
shitty school
shit school dont bother going
Overall rating
Great lessons and lesson opportunities, you learn in greater depth and it is also one of the best educated schools in birmingham. Only downside for me is that some of the staff (especially office staff) can come across as moody. Apart from that I rate it 3/5.
Good school

Great school
It’s an amazing school, I 100% recommend it as the teachers are very helpful and if you are ever stuck you can go and ask them for help. We have learning cycles 3 times a year (they are tests but they aren’t to bad) which we get told about a good few weeks in advanced. The teachers are great and there is definitely a range of activities.
School
I went from y7 in y11 now was hard at the start but the school becomes a big happy part of your life and there's gonna be slot of people upset to leave this year !
Bishop Walsh!
Bishop Walsh!
Teachers are great and very knowledgeable in their subjects they support and, motivate students to do their best which is one thing I admire about the teachers of Bishop Walsh.
Indoor environment-I feel very safe at my school I believe if anything bad was to happen e.g a fire it would be handled sensibly, quickly and with care. Lessons are very well thought out we have a very hands on experience where it’s fun but, also educational I especially enjoy when we play the game called Kahoot which is a quiz game.Its a fun competition in the classroom where we have to answer the questions quickly and, it gets us all thinking.
At Bishop Walsh we have many activities to participate in such as Sport,drama and many others there are also many opportunities to go on school trips which are incredible learning experiences.
Bullying everyone has a different experience at school with friendship their is bullying at every school this isn’t the schools fault it’s the students themselves schools don’t necessarily know what to do when it comes to bullying because they don’t know if it’s going to make that student more vulnerable or anxious I believe Bishop Walsh could handle it a bit better but it’s a very Difficult situation for every individual.
Sport the sport opportunity’s at Bishop Walsh are absolutely incredible if you love sport I recommend you consider coming to Bishop Walsh.
School information very good although I think it would be better if we had more newsletters but over all we have announcements every morning in forms and we have a homework diary which we write important dates and also homework.
Bishop Walsh is a good school make the most of your education!
