OUR SCHOOL
Birdswood Secondary School currently has around 571 learners from a variety of backgrounds and we feel that this diversity is the key to our success in our academic endeavours. We are proud to say that approximately 70% of our learners go on to study at tertiary institutions when they leave Matric. Another key factor in ensuring our academic success is that we are able to maintain manageable class sizes which provides learners with a more relaxed learning environment and allows them the opportunity to connect one on one with any one of our highly qualified educators, who go above and beyond by offering extra lessons for the learners to attend in the afternoons, evenings and on weekends. These extra lessons are also available during the July and October school holidays (Winter and Summer school respectively)
Principal's Message
We are in the Leage of our own, competing with No One but Us. We set out targets and work diligently to achieve them. We always strive to achieve what we can imagine, i.e. Power of imagination.
​
I give out my Appreciation to BSS SMT, All Educators and Non-teaching Staff for their dedication and selfless service to the school and community at large.
​
My special Thank you goes to my SGB for their 100% support to the school. I know you wanted 100% Pass rate from our Matriculants But please find it in your hearts to accept the 93% that we achieved given all our efforts.
​
