BHSA is an all-through (3-19 years) state funded academy open to all girls of the area, enjoying the support of our sponsors, the Girls’ Day School Trust. The original Birkenhead High School was founded in 1901, and its successor BHSA is and will continue to be a beacon of excellence in girls’ education.

The GDST is a group of 25 independent schools located throughout England and Wales with over 20,000 pupils. The GDST’s philosophy is to offer a distinctive educational experience to the young people in their schools, within a broad, inclusive curriculum and a culture of high expectation. As a charity, it reinvests all income in its schools for the benefit of its pupils. GDST schools help students to achieve some of the best academic results nationally.
