Welcome to the Beechwood Website

Nicholas Beesley, MA(Oxon) Headmaster

At Beechwood every pupil is known and valued. Our friendly staff and pupils show mutual respect and consideration for each other, and pupils can be assured of the support and guidance they need.

Beechwood comprises a co-educational Preparatory and Senior School, with boarding for girls aged 11 - 18. Founded by the Sisters of the Sacred Heart in 1915, Beechwood retains its Catholic tradition, but today welcomes pupils of all faiths.

In our small classes, teachers stimulate pupils to excel in what they are good at and build confidence in areas they find difficult, from the youngest child in the Preparatory School through to our oldest Senior School students. Our academic record is strong: Beechwood is one of the most successful schools in the county at A-level and in value-added measurements at GCSE.
