Beaumont Leys School is a highly successful 11-16 school. We are very proud of the progress our students make, and the destinations that our students go on to; many of our students have challenging backgrounds and low prior attainment on intake and so we are the beacon of hope for their futures. We believe that a high quality education leads not only to transformative exam results for students, but also in great character development. We want students to feel that they belong in our school and develop their sense of self-worth alongside an understanding of the positive impact they can have on those around them.

Together We Achieve Success is our motto and the driving force for our school. Our students thrive because our staff are dedicated to students' success; to building positive relationships; and to collaborating and working as a team within a supportive environment. We are a school with a heart and soul, and we believe our job is to give our students the best possible chances in life, creating some fantastic lifelong memories along the way.

Our Humanities Faculty is forward looking and innovative with an excellent reputation for maximising individual student potential and is a strength within our school. It consists of ten members of staff led by a Faculty Team Leader who is supported by a Deputy Faculty Team Leader, a Head of Geography, a Head of History and a Head of Ethics. We are passionate about geography. Our programme of learning teaches our students about the physical and human processes that interact to create distinct places.
