The Bewdley School And Sixth Form Centre

The Bewdley School and Sixth Form Centre is a foundation comprehensive school in Bewdley, serving north-west Worcestershire, England. Its campus is very close to the River Severn. In late 2009, The Bewdley School was awarded Specialist Art College status. The Bewdley School is in the top 10% of all schools nationally for student progress and outcomes at both GCSE and A Level. The Bewdley School and Sixth Form Centre is a member of the Stourport SCITT (school centered initial teacher training) group, a collection of outstanding 'model' schools used to train new teachers in partnership with Birmingham City University. In January 2016, OFSTED reconfirmed during a short inspection that The Bewdley School was 'Good with Outstanding features', following on from a longer section five report in 2012. HistoryThe Bewdley School and Sixth Form Centre has its origins in the Bewdley County Secondary School which opened in April 1956. In 1972 the area adopted a three-tier system, and the school became Bewdley High School. When the area returned to a two-tier system in 2007, the High School was amalgamated with the two local middle schools to form the Bewdley School and Sixth Form Centre, with Mrs Reilly as the new headteacher. In December 2016, Julie Reilly retired after serving 10 years as headteacher at Bewdley. She was replaced by Mr David Hadley-Pryce, previous head teacher of North Bromsgrove High School.
