Welcome to our School
I am delighted to welcome you and your child into The Beacon School community. As a school, we value the strong relationships we have with families and look forward to working in partnership with you to ensure all of the students have the very best experience at the school.
We hope that this website provides you with some useful information to help support your child’s transition from primary to secondary school. For some children, the transition can be smooth and easy, whilst others may find it more difficult. This is normal and so we aim to provide students and parents with all the relevant tools to help them find their feet quickly, ease any of their worries, and support them individually to ensure they can make a positive start to their time at The Beacon School.
The school itself is on an exciting journey of improvement and your child will be joining a school that is undertaking positive changes in order to provide the students with the very best. We strive to ensure students can fulfil their potential and grow into happy, kind and well-rounded individuals. We have high ambitions for our students and believe they only have one chance at school. We also believe it is our job to work together as staff and parents to motivate, guide and challenge each one of them in order for them to become the best versions of themselves. Our most important partners are our parents and carers. We are determined to work in genuine partnership with families to ensure the success of all our students.
