Sixth forms and colleges in Birmingham

A postcode (M41, or LS1 5AS) starts from the centre of its district; one of 20 places, such as Leeds, from the centre of its schools; a school’s name, such as Townley Grammar, from the school itself. England only. Straight-line distances.

Of the 51 sixth forms and colleges in Birmingham, nine have a report card, seven have key judgements without an overall grade, 19 have an overall grade on the old scale, 14 have an ungraded inspection and two have no inspection in the data we hold. Among the 49 with an inspection, the oldest verdict, at Bordesley Green Girls' School & Sixth Form, dates from 26 April 2022; the latest, at King Edward VI Aston School, from 9 September 2026.

State schools with a sixth form, and state schools and colleges for students aged 16 and over, in the register of schools: 8 of them selective. Colleges that the register lists as further education colleges, including some sixth form colleges, are not included.

Each column counts the sixth forms and colleges whose latest inspection took place that month (tallest: 5); the open part of a column counts ungraded inspections. Behind them, the ruler Ofsted used on that date: pale, an overall grade on the old four-point scale (until 31 August 2024); mid blue, key judgements without an overall grade (from 1 September 2024); deep blue, report cards (from 10 November 2025).
