Bristnall Hall High School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bristnall Hall High School is a secondary school located in Oldbury, West Midlands, England. It received Technology College status in 2005, a year after the appointment of Mr Stephen Venross as head teacher.

The school was opened during the 1930s to serve the expanding Warley area of Oldbury, and was initially a secondary modern school for pupils who did not pass their 11+ - those who did attended Oldbury Grammar School or Oldbury Technical School.

The gap between Bristnall and the other local schools closed during the 1970s when the local secondary schools all went comprehensive. There are currently six forms in each of the five year groups, and in 2006 Sandwell MBC announced plans to merge Bristnall with nearby Langley High School.
