Bishop Walsh Catholic School is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form with academy status, located in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham in the West Midlands of England. The school is part of the St. John Paul II Multi-Academy Company.[1] The school's motto is 'Guided by Christ, we aspire to achieve'. It is led by principal Natalie Brodie.
In 2019 the school requested planning permission for an extension to the building to replace temporary classrooms.[2] These had been on the site since 2008 and, because of their damp condition, were thought to be causing minor illnesses for students and staff.[2] The new extension is planned to provide sixth-form accommodation.[2]
