Technology

In 2011 Broadgreen International School installed fingerprint recognition systems, for pupils who arrived late at the school.

In 2012 a new rewards system, Vivo Miles, was implanted; encouraging students to take part in activities.

In 2013 another use of the fingerprint system was implemented to give access to pupils scanning their fingerprint to get their lunch rather than using their dinner card.

Transformation

Between 2003 and 2007, the school went under a major transformation. This has produced a number of new buildings within the school grounds which include a sports hall, a drama studio, bistro and dining room.
The school was celebrated with a rededication ceremony presided by Prince Edward, the Earl of Wessex.

MUGA Redevelopment

On 15 March 2016, a new 3G Pitch was officially opened by the Liverpool F.C. player Kolo Touré, Liverpool L.F.C. Alex Greenwood and former Everton F.C. legend Graeme Sharp. The 54m x 43m 3G pitch replaced a concrete Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA) that was in a poor state of repair and was not fit for its intended purpose. The new pitch was funded by a £269,093 grant from the Premier League and The FA Facilities Fund with the pitch costing £339,093 in total. The redevelopment of the pitch also included the provision of floodlights that allow the pitch to be used at night.

Sixth Form

The school operates the International Baccalaureate, which has been available at the school since 1992.

Along with the IB, the school also offers a small variety of vocational courses including BTEC certifications.

The school made an appearance on the Financial Times Top IB schools, placing 61st out of the 62 schools which offer the course to more than 10 students.
