You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Bournemouth School for Girls''' is a [[Grammar school|grammar]] [[Academy (English school)|academy school]] located in [[Bournemouth]], [[Dorset]], England.
It is a girls grammar school and sixth form college, teaching girls aged 11 to 18.

==History==
Seventeen years after the boys school was founded this school opened with 160 pupils on 30 January 1918. The school moved to new buildings in Castle Gate Close in 1961.<ref>((Cite web |title=PICTURES: 100 years of Bournemouth School for Girls |url=https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/15906916.pictures-100-years-bournemouth-school-girls/ |access-date=2023-01-21 |website=Bournemouth Echo |language=en))</ref>

==Academics==
Since September 2005, BSG has been a humanities specialist school. The school has approximately 1,200 students, including 300 in the sixth form.<ref>((Cite web |title=Bournemouth School for Girls - GOV.UK |url=https://www.get-information-schools.service.gov.uk/Establishments/Establishment/Details/136996 |access-date=2022-11-17 |website=www.get-information-schools.service.gov.uk |language=en))</ref> Until 2012, sixth form classes (including Theatre Studies, PE and Psychology) were open to Students at the boys-only [[Bournemouth School]], with whom BSG share a sports and playing field.

The school is represented by a Senior Team led by the Head Girl and Deputy Head Girl and made up of six House and six Deputy House captains. Within each house there are designated positions for a sports prefect, performing arts prefect and a charities prefect.

==House system==
There are six forms per year group, denoted by their house initials. Prior to 2006 they were denoted using the number system and prior to 1997 they were denoted A, alpha, B, Beta, P and pi. In September 2006 the [[house system]] was reimplemented (it had existed when the school was located at the Landsdowne site, before moving to its current position on Castle Lane). The houses were named after influential women with assigned house colours, as follows: [[Jane Austen]] (red), [[Marie Curie]] (green), [[Rosalind Franklin]] (blue), [[Rosa Parks]] (yellow), [[Christina Rossetti]] (purple) and [[Mary Shelley]] (turquoise). The emblem of the school is a snowdrop, which features on all the house badges.

==Productions==
The school has an award-winning [[handbell]] team, who have played at the [[Royal Albert Hall]]. Every other year the school performs a musical which involves the whole school. In recent years these have been ''[[West Side Story]]'', ''[[Les Misérables (musical)|Les Misérables]]'', ''[[Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat]]'', ''[[Little Shop of Horrors (musical)|Little Shop of Horrors]]'', ''[[The Sound of Music]]'', and ''[[Grease (musical)|Grease]] and [[Hairspray (musical)|Hairspray]]''. The girls also participate in Bournemouth School's productions such as ''[[Bugsy Malone]]'', ''[[Jesus Christ Superstar]]'', and in 2014, a musical written by sixth form students based upon [[Mary Shelley]]'s ''[[Frankenstein]]''. In the years where a musical is not performed, members of staff participate in a staff pantomime, with all proceeds going to charity.

==Other extra curricular activities==
((unsourced section|date=July 2023))
Bournemouth School for Girls enters teams every year in the Mock Trial Competition, MACE debating, ESU public speaking, Rotary public speaking and Schools' Challenge competitions.

There are sports clubs for table tennis, a gym club, trampolining and ultimate frisbee; as well as Junior Drama club, History club and Science club.

==Sport==
Sports are an important part at Bournemouth School for Girls, which was recognised when in 2012, the school was selected by [[LloydsTSB]] to be a part of the National Olympic Torch Relay, in which 10 pupils carried an Olympic torch through [[Bournemouth]].<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.bsg.bournemouth.sch.uk/videos.html |title=Untitled Document |accessdate=2014-05-04 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140504035125/http://www.bsg.bournemouth.sch.uk/videos.html |archivedate=2014-05-04 ))</ref>

===CCF===
The school has an active [[Combined Cadet Force]], a rarity for a state-funded school. The CCF currently has over 150 members from both [[Bournemouth School]] and Bournemouth School for Girls.  The CCF is run by senior cadets and volunteer staff from both schools but hosted at Bournemouth School.  The CCF is open to pupils in year 9 upwards with an annual recruitment usually in February. The CCF is split into three sections; Army, Navy and RAF, with each wearing rank-appropriate uniform.

Activities that cadets are able to take part in include gliding, flying, shooting, the [[Ten Tors]] walk, national exchanges and camps including Penhale central camp in the summer term. There is also a Band section that rehearses every week, also run by sixth form cadets, with each member choosing which uniform they wish to wear according to the section they want to be affiliated with.

==Ofsted==
Bournemouth School for Girls has won praise from Inspectors following their visits, achieving 'Outstanding' in all aspects of school life in 2012. Inspectors noted 'the very good teaching and good leadership at all levels that enable pupils to achieve very well and develop into confident young adults.'  They comment that 'staff are knowledgeable and supportive; they transfer their love of learning to the pupils and help them to achieve very well.'

Pupils at the school had 'their very high levels of determination to succeed' and 'exemplary behaviour'.  The sixth form was described as ‘highly effective'.  'Provision is very good in academic subjects and for students' personal development.'<ref>((Cite web |first= |date=2022-07-25 |title=Find an inspection report and registered childcare |url=http://reports.ofsted.gov.uk/inspection-reports/find-inspection-report |access-date=2022-11-17 |website=reports.ofsted.gov.uk))</ref>
