We welcomed a record number of new Year 7 students and families to the BSA Barbecue this Saturday, with over 500 attending. The event raised over £1800 for the school, to be spent on improving the learning, well-being and opportunities for all students.

Beaumont students have overcome the challenges of the Covid pandemic to achieve outstanding results in their ‘A’ level and BTEC courses, with a record number securing a place at a university of their choice. Twins Rob and Tom Linzell (pictured) will be taking degrees in Engineering next year as a result of being awarded five A* two A grades.

Mr Atkinson (Headteacher) said, “I am immensely proud of what this cohort has achieved in unprecedented circumstances. Throughout the periods of national lockdown, their teachers ensured that quality learning could continue remotely, backed up with additional support from the pastoral staff, and our Year 13 students rose to the challenge brilliantly”.  Mrs Powdrell (Deputy Headteacher), added, “As a school, we were able to meet all of the quality assurance standards set by Ofqual and the exam boards in how we assessed our students and we are confident that our leavers have gained skills and qualifications that will enable them to embrace fully the opportunities of Higher Education and beyond”.

The newly appointed Key Stage 3 Beaumont Leaders have launched their first project …

Due to recent events in the EURO 2020 football tournament, it has come to our attention that we currently have only one defibrillator within our ever growing school. This piece of life saving equipment is located in the A Block reception and there are parts of the school that are now quite far away. We wish to fund-raise enough money to buy at least one more defibrillator that is accessible for other parts of the school and playing fields. We have come up with the amazing idea of the Beaumont Heartbeat Challenge.

This is a fundraiser that invites students, staff and parents to take part in one (or both!) of these activities.

1: Run, walk, wheel, ride, (or any other physical activity) 111 miles as a group on Strava! This can be a group of friends, a family, a form, a sports team or anyone else. 111 miles is significant because this is the distance between Christian Eriksen’s place of birth and the place where he collapsed.

2: Have a week where you help out around the house, and get sponsored for it! For example, do the washing up and have a family member donate £3 to the BHC! So please join in and set yourself up with a Beaumont Heartbeat Fundraising page here.

The Beaumont Heartbeat Challenge finishes on Monday 19th July so please make sure that all donations are registered by then.

After restricted opening this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Library is delighted to open its doors to students again at break and lunchtimes after Half Term.  Access will be structured by Year Group, however, to maintain social distancing.
