The school’s systems  are geared to support the progress of all students. The curriculum,  assessment, staffing, timetable, technology and a wealth of other  resources enable each student to receive personalised support to achieve  ambitious goals. A global perspective, that celebrates diversity and  respect for individual rights, pervades the school and helps us to  nurture responsible citizens and independent thinkers. 

At Moseley all  staff are provided with a level of guidance and training which enables  them to develop as leading professionals in order that they can make a  significant contribution to the educational community in Birmingham and  nationally.

We want staff and students to work in an  emotionally intelligent school where we acknowledge the fallibility of  human beings and recognise the impact our actions and words have on  others.

All students have  opportunities to broaden their social and cultural horizons. The school  provides a clear moral framework based on shared values in which the  students feel safe and can flourish. Students are encouraged to reflect  on their own beliefs, appreciate different views and develop  understanding of their own identity and their own self-worth. Moseley School and Sixth Form is a place where staff and students are  aware of how personal and political decisions affect the future of the  environment and of their responsibility to help to sustain our planet.
