The Beacon of Light School is a unique 80 place Alternative Provision for young people aged 13-16 who are experiencing challenges in mainstream education. Our curriculum offer provides life changing opportunities to the students who attend, not only in terms of improved educational outcomes but also in the longer-term outcomes of training, work and economic wellbeing.
Students are at the very heart of our school community and we are passionate about embedding strong foundations and values for their future achievement and success.

We align workplace qualities within a curriculum context so all students are “work-ready” with a set of futureproofed skills as their ‘employability passport’ – fully prepared for the next exciting stage of life’s learning journey.
By investing in our young people today we will secure the future they deserve – enabling them to learn more, do more and be more.
