Norfolk House School has a proud reputation for inspiring academic excellence and helping children develop into well-rounded and confident individuals who are fully prepared for the next stage of their education. Our children consistently perform very well in the 11+ examination for entry to the many excellent grammar schools in Birmingham, while others secure places and scholarships at prestigious independent senior schools.

We are a small school with small class sizes, which enables us to pay close personal attention to each and every pupil and offer them a bespoke education which meets their individual needs. Our home is a beautiful period property on the elegant Calthorpe Estate, conveniently located just off the Hagley Road and only a few minutes’ drive from Birmingham city centre.

Above all else, we are a happy school where children really enjoy their work and play. Throughout our 90-year history we have found this to be the unerring formula for success, however one chooses to measure it. Visitors to the School frequently comment upon its family atmosphere which, we believe, is a direct product of our size and ethos (view Ethos and Aims).

Norfolk House is a Christian, non-denominational school, but our pupils represent a rich variety of cultures and faiths, and a very warm welcome awaits all.
