WELCOME TO BIRLEY HIGH SCHOOL.BIRLEY HIGH SCHOOL, CHICHESTER ROAD, HULME, MANCHESTER Every effort is made on this site to provide accurate details and to recall issues and people as best as possible. Information is contained on the main pages and in the inset pages (tabs) on the right. The Guestbook is in People pages. Birley High School was demolished in 1999 and with it went many records, memorabilia and mumiments. The site is provided to cover the history of Birley High School in celebration of the many students who achieved a great deal in their personal and professional lives and of the staff who dedicated themselves to a project that was challenging and exciting and which lives on in the memories and tales we tell of Manchester. Birley High School was a true Manchester school at the heart of the city and its early 1960's regeneration progamme. I can only tell of that time from 67-76, but what a time it was. A time and place of which I am ever proud and grateful for its experience. There is information about the Birley that I recall, the reunions and some profiles of people too. Finally, thanks to Mrs N Moore and to Peter Jackson for loaning some of the pics and the Hobson's Choice programme used on this site.
