Nick Gibb Letter 2016

/in /by

For the second year in succession, Nick Gibb, Minister of State for Schools, has written to Beaumont to congratulate us on our ‘very high standard of achievement’ in our GCSE results.  The percentage of students achieving five or more A*- C grades, including English and Maths, places Beaumont in the top 100 non-selective state-funded schools in England.

The minister also praised the school for being one of the top 100 schools in the English Baccalaureate measure which, in his words, ‘provides a strong basis for [students’] further education and employment’.

Contracts signed for the Sports Hall

It’s full steam ahead for our new four-court Sports Hall which is due to be opened in September. The new building will also feature an extensive fitness suite, boardroom and eleven state-of-the-art classrooms. Its completion will mark the culmination of Phase 2 of Beaumont’s ongoing Field, Access and Buildings (FAB) project.  Plans for Phase 3 are already underway.

Representatives from Ashe Construction, our main partner in the project, met with Alex Hall, Chair of Governors and Mrs Hitch earlier this year to sign the contracts for Phase 2, along with some of the students who will enjoy these exciting new facilities during their time at Beaumont.
