Open Evening

Open Evening 2026 took place on Thursday 8 October 2026. 

It was our biggest-ever turnout as families joined us for an evening of activity and fact-finding!

There was the chance to hear from key staff and pupils past and present, who gave a taste of life at Burnage Academy for Boys. A range of activities were set up for young people to try in all areas of the school, and staff shared all the information you could need about individual subjects, and the pastoral care and extracurricular opportunities available to pupils here.

If were not able to attend, do not worry. We welcome visits at any time of the day so that you can see our school in action. Email us at office@burnage.manchester.sch.uk or call us on 0161 4321527 to arrange a personal tour.

Our website also has valuable information about Transition from Primary and our Admissions process.
