Middle School - The Beacon School

Our Middle School boys establish themselves as excellent role models, guiding our younger boys.

Boys in Years 5 & 6 continue to grow dramatically in independence and responsibility. Their ability to reflect, to communicate and to collaborate with others expands and opportunities to become leaders are vast. They develop academically, socially and emotionally, quickly affirming themselves as a mentor to others.

Boys have a vast array of opportunities open to them in these years, such as school debates, visiting author workshops, Maths & Science challenges, DT Tournaments and cross-curricular trips.
