The Curriculum
Games & the Arts
Our ethos is ‘Sport For All’. Whatever the sporting level, boys are coached and encouraged to develop a love for sport which will last a lifetime. Rugby, football, cricket, hockey, basketball, swimming, fitness, athletics, HIIT, cross country, tennis.
Performing Arts is also an integral and highly valued part of school life. There is a large public performance every year, and over 100 boys receive weekly LAMDA tuition.
Pastoral Care
Nurturing, supporting and encouraging all our boys to feel happy, secure and confident is of paramount importance to every member of our Beacon Community. Our Pastoral Care team, comprising of Class Teachers, Form Tutors, Heads of Sections, Heads of Houses, the Senior Leadership Team and our wonderful in-school Counsellor meet regularly to ensure our boys’ daily-changing needs are met.
Our core message of ‘Be kind, be kind, be kind’ is a simple yet strongly-supported school ethos.
