Overview
Overview
Known locally as Beis Chinuch High School, Manchester Senior Girls School gives Orthodox Jewish education a girls-only Year 7 to Year 11 setting. Opened in 2015, it is a day community with no sixth form or boarding, so the senior years have a focused rather than all-through structure.
Assessment is used to identify gaps and shape learning, with English, mathematics and PSHE receiving particular attention. Reading across varied genres supports the academic programme, while careers education, personal safety and respectful relationships bring practical preparation into the weekly curriculum.
Costume design, netball and choir sit alongside ice-skating, beach and residential visits. Key Stage 4 pupils mentor younger pupils in Key Stage 3, giving older girls a defined responsibility within the community. In July 2025, behaviour and safeguarding were positive, while relationships and sex education and teaching about protected characteristics remained areas for improvement.
It runs from age 11 to 16 under Manchester Senior Girls School as proprietor. That current improvement work is material to the profile, alongside the Orthodox Jewish ethos, girls-only structure and direct day-school route.
