University Academy Birkenhead is a co-educational secondary school with academy status located in Birkenhead on the Wirral Peninsula in England. The school is located near Birkenhead Park. The school was formed in 2011 from the merger of Park High School and Rock Ferry High School, and is based at the former Park High School site. University Academy Birkenhead is sponsored by the University of Chester, the University of Liverpool, Birkenhead Sixth Form College, Wirral Metropolitan College and Wirral Metropolitan Borough Council. ==History== Park High School for Girls opened in Park Road South in 1926 and Park High School for Boys was established in 1925 at a site on Park Road North. Both schools were amalgamated in 1972, with Park High School becoming an 11-18 co-educational comprehensive school. Following the establishment of Birkenhead Sixth Form College in 1988, the upper age of students was reduced to 16. In June 2001, work began to bring the school onto one site. An extensive building programme involved demolishing the boys gym, the caretakers house, the old canteen and fourteen mobile classrooms. This allowed for the construction of a new circular canteen, large sports hall and dance studio, as well as building extensions to older parts of the main building. When the new school year began in September 2003, Park High School was opened on one site for the first time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=School History )〕 At the end of December 2010, Park High School formally closed, as did Rock Ferry High School (another coeducational comprehensive school in Birkenhead). University Academy Birkenhead opened in their place in January 2011. After merging the two schools, the principal and his deputy resigned after failing to unite staff from the two former schools. On 20 April 2015 the school changed its name to The Birkenhead Park School under Wirral Academy Trust formed from the neighbouring Birkenhead Sixth Form College. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「University Academy Birkenhead」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
