BIRCHWOOD Community High School is among the three per cent of UK schools to achieve an eco-friendly award.
The Eco-Schools Green Flag award recognises schools which promote environmental action and learning.
Birchwood's eco committee met with an inspector from Eco-Schools who assessed how environmentally friendly the school was.
After a tour of the school from Pedro Santos and Luke Richardson showcasing eco-projects, the whole eco committee gave a presentation about their achievements over the past year.
The inspector told students they had excellent commitment, leadership and passion towards the eco-schools project and he later awarded them with Green Flag status.
