Bluecoat Beechdale Academy is a highly inclusive school, serving a diverse community, with some of the highest levels of deprivation in the country. We believe that education is the key to improving the social mobility of the area and have high expectations for students' in order to support them to take the next steps in education. Therefore, we offer a suite of

traditional GCSE

qualifications, as well as several

vocational

courses. For many students, the practical elements of these courses allow them to increase their

employability

and offer real life experiences, giving a sense of what life is like in industry. Links with

careers

are explicit within all subject areas that raise aspirations for a life of employment.



At Bluecoat Beechdale, we believe that all students have the right to feel safe, the right to be happy and the right to learn. Our students are able to achieve this through the support of a highly effective pastoral team who encourage students to feel that they

belong

to the school community, they

believe

in themselves to show the best version of themselves so they can

achieve

the very best possible outcomes, both academically and in their personal development.



We are extremely proud of the journey school is on. Since joining Archway Learning Trust in 2014, the trajectory of improvement has been consistent and substantial, with Ofsted recognising this progress in 2017, when they judged the school to be 'Good'.
