beths grammar school
Beths Grammar School is a selective academy for boys aged 11-16 with a mixed
Sixth Form. There are currently 192 student places in each year group in years
7-11. The anticipated capacity for the 6th Form (Years 12 and 13 combined) is
650). In 1995 the school was awarded Technology College Status. In 2005 we were
identified as one of the first High Performing Specialist Schools and, in 2006,
took on a second specialism in languages. Following an Outstanding Ofsted
grading in 2007, Beths became, in 2008, a National Support School. In 2009 the
school added a third specialism to its portfolio, as a Leadership Partner
School. The international dimension offered by the language specialism is of
great value in the modern world. We offer Mandarin Chinese as well as French,
German and Spanish, and the various opportunities that arise include visits to
China. In May 2010 we became a ‘Confucius Classroom’ – a hub school for Mandarin
Chinese.
