School Description

The Beech Academy has an ethos that promotes hard work, enthusiasm and friendship, which threads through the school community. Staff skilfully use what they know about pupils to support them when they find aspects of life challenging. The vision at Beech Academy is based around ‘turning I can’t into I can’. Staff and pupils work hard to realise this vision together. Staff nurture and encourage pupils throughout the school to learn and interact with each other well. Pupils develop empathy and are kind, polite and friendly. The school provides effective support for pupils who experience difficulty. Staff act quickly to prevent negative situations from escalating. Occasional disruption to learning is well managed, so pupils can concentrate on their studies. As a result, the school is a calm and purposeful place to learn, where bullying is rare and, when it occurs, is resolved by staff. Pupils enjoy coming to school, as they feel valued. Staff are committed to helping pupils achieve as well as they can. The curriculum is well planned and adapted for each of the school’s pathways, at Fairholme Drive and Westfield. Staff know pupils’ needs and make sure that they take these into account when planning activities.
