Our School | The Henry Beaufort School

At The Henry Beaufort School, we share an inclusive ethos which focuses on challenge, enjoyment and success for all.

Our core values are centred on independent learning. Our students are resilient learners who take pride in being confident, articulate young citizens. Our unique learning ethos and the impact it has on progress and attainment, has been recognised at national level with publication in the Parliamentary Review for Education.

The Henry Beaufort School Vision

At The Henry Beaufort School, there are no limitations to success. We are ambitious for all of our students. Our school is proud of its tradition as an inclusive comprehensive school where students are happy.

We celebrate the success of our students at every opportunity. We place great value on our cultural enrichment programme and take delight in the buzz and energy around the school site well beyond the official ending of the school day.

We value the fundamental role that we play in the academic and moral education of young people. We understand the challenges that accompany our role as educationalists and we continue to work to find ways to refine and improve our practice. This is underpinned by our aim to be outstanding in everything we do.

Our values are centred on Pride, Happiness and Ambition.

HEADTEACHER’S WELCOME

I am so proud and privileged to be the Headteacher of The Henry Beaufort School. It is the fulfilment of a lifetime’s career in teaching made rich by the young people and colleagues I have the pleasure of working amongst.

The young people of our school both humble and inspire me every day of my working life. Our school is a stimulating, creative and dynamic place for children to learn, where they are encouraged to try new activities and adventures that stretch and challenge their academic learning and their social awareness.

The curriculum at The Henry Beaufort School combines the traditional with the dynamic and innovative. Our personalised learning pathways ensure that students choose from a broad and balanced curriculum designed to guarantee access to higher education and the modern workplace.

Why the henry beaufort school?

"Literacy is a fundamental human right and the foundation for lifelong learning. It is fully essential to social and human development in its ability to transform lives. For individuals, families, and societies alike, it is an instrument of empowerment to improve one’s health, one’s income, and one’s relationship with the world."

UNESCO

“Having a fluent recall of times tables, is crucial for children’s success in moving on to more complex maths”

"The presentation of the Headteacher awards is one of the favourite parts of my role. I am always delighted to be informed about a young person's achievements, whether this is for academic progress or for community involvement. It is a privilege to meet with these young people to learn more about the reasons why they have been nominated for these awards and to personally thank them for what they have achieved."

Miss Hearle, Headteacher

There is something for everyone! A common worry for students is making new friends but this is easy at Henry Beaufort as there are many opportunities to find friends with activities at the start of Year 7 tailored for just that.

H, Year 8

The vertical tutoring system that is used is very effective in creating bonds between the years and also meant that I had older students that I knew and could go to if I was lost or I needed help with something.

E, Year 8

Going form Primary School can be daunting, but trust me, it’s not as scary as you think. There are so many clubs to keep you busy, with sports like football, rounders, tennis, badminton and cricket. Try something new, Henry Beaufort can open many doors for you. As long as you believe, you can achieve.
