Head Teacher's Message

Welcome to Birch Hill Primary School and Nursery. We are a two form entry community school serving the Birch Hill and Hanworth districts of Bracknell Forest. In addition to the main school, we offer a nursery and host an Inclusion Unit (KS2). Our Motto is: Learn, Believe, Achieve Together. We set high standards of work and achieve this through providing a curriculum that also develops children's belief that they can achieve their highest aspirations while working closely with parents and the whole community.
