Infant & Junior School Curriculum

Building on the experiences and foundations laid in Beech Hall Nursery, the children naturally make the transition to Beech Hall Infant School. Our small classes provide a high level of individual care and attention. The children in our Infant and Junior sections benefit from a broad curriculum. The importance of reading, writing and mathematics is stressed and these are taught by the child’s form teacher who is also responsible for the excellent pastoral care that our children receive. In addition, pupils benefit from specialist teaching in Science, IT, Music, Physical Education, French and Art. Beech Hall children are encouraged to take an interest in and develop an awareness of, the world around them together with the development of their creative and physical skills.

Senior School Curriculum

At Key Stage 3 (ages 11 – 13) pupils study the following subjects: English, Maths, Science, Spanish, French, German, Art, Design Technology, Computer Studies, Food Technology, Drama, Music, PE, Geography, History, RE, PHSE/Citizenship.

At the end of Year 8 pupils usually choose nine or ten of these subjects to study at GCSE. In Science we are able to offer individual sciences (Biology, Chemistry and Physics) or the Dual Award.
