St Paul'S School For Girls

Proud to be Birmingham's only All Girls Catholic School

The School was founded by the Sisters of Charity of St Paul the Apostle in 1908 and was the only Catholic Girls’ Grammar School in Birmingham. In 1975, it became a Voluntary Aided Comprehensive School and currently admits each year 165 girls (plus those who have successfully appealed). Successive building and the renovation programmes have enlarged the school from its original size of two form to six form entry to enable the provision of a wide range of facilities to meet the needs of pupils.
Aims of the School
