Head Teacher's Welcome

Welcome to our new school website. We are a large multicultural Junior School near the centre of Huddersfield.  At Birkby Junior School we work hard to provide a creative, enjoyable and rewarding learning experience for each child in an inclusive, secure and stimulating learning environment.

We are proud of our school community and celebrate the rich and diverse backgrounds of all our pupils.

The Staff and the Governing Body at Birkby Junior School are committed to working together to give children the academic and life skills they will need to be successful.

We care about our Parents and Carers, we welcome your involvement and we look for your support in ensuring good attendance, good behaviour and hard work from your children. We operate an open-door policy and welcome you into the school anytime you would like to talk.  Hopefully you can find all the information you need on our website but if you can’t please feel free to call into school. We will be happy to help you and answer any further questions you may have.

Thank you

Mrs Susan Davis
Head Teacher

    Online safety and Social Media
    Dear parents and carers, We know that some children in school tell us they have access to a range of social media apps, many of which have age limits of 13+. We have attached two useful guides to help parents and carers support their children to use the internet safely. We know that social media, like all forms of public communication, comes with some risks. Not all of these risks turn into actual problems but by helping our child understand what the risks are, we can play a big part in preventing them from turning into problems. We hope you find the information helpful. Kind regards, Mrs S Davis Head Teacher
