Bjerke Upper Secondary School (Norwegian: Bjerke videregående skole) is an upper secondary school based in Groruddalen in Oslo, Norway. It offers general academics, media and communications, health care and elite sports. From 2009/10 it will also offer music, dance and drama. In 2000 the school changed its name from Linderud Upper Secondary School to Bjerke.
The school was notable for having introduced, in 2011, a system of segregating ethnic and white students to discourage Norwegian students from transferring to other schools.[1]
