The school was graded 'good' in all areas in 2021 by Ofsted and has gone from strength to strength since. It is an IQM (Inclusion Quality Mark ) Centre of Excellence school and is passionate about providing the best opportunities for its pupils. In January 2024 we appointed an ambitious Principal, Mr Ben Kilgannon, who lives locally and is hugely passionate about the school, its community and staff. As a hands-on Principal, he is a big believer in working collaboratively and continuously developing staff to ensure all pupils reach their full potential. Beacon Academy is the epitome of teamwork where everyone feels valued and heard.
