On behalf of the governors, staff and pupils, I would like to thank you for your interest in The Birchwood Federation. Our three incredible schools have adjoining catchment areas and are an integral part of their local community. I hope you enjoy your visit to our website and discovering the most up to date news, events and school information from across the federation.

The three schools; The Lancaster School, Woodlands Infant and Nursery School and Birchwood Junior School work extremely closely together to offer an excellent education for around 500 pupils from the local area. The schools are federated under one governing body. In addition to this, they collaborate on every aspect of school life including shared administration roles, professional development for staff and pupil experience days and events.

Our schools offer the children an exciting and engaging curriculum with a wide range of experiences, school visits and special events. We pride ourselves on our engagement with families and the school community so ensure that there are plenty of opportunities for parents, families and friends to visit school and enjoy the children’s successes throughout the school year.

All three schools have been recognised as “Good” by Ofsted in the last few years.

We always welcome visits to our schools and I look forward to meeting you in the very near future.

Mr Brian Main

Chair of Governors
