Beths Grammar School

What Beths Grammar School does

Beths Grammar School is a selective state-funded grammar school in Bexley, Kent, operating as a charitable company limited by guarantee under UK academy trust governance. It serves boys aged 11–16 in Years 7–11 alongside a co-educational Sixth Form, delivering a GCSE and A-Level curriculum of over 30 subjects plus enrichment programs such as the Super Curriculum, Mandarin Excellence Programme (rated #1 in the UK), Duke of Edinburgh Award, and a comprehensive careers programme.

The school runs a standard education-technology stack — Satchel One (homework), CPOMS (safeguarding), Every (identity), SOCS (co-curricular scheduling), SchoolCloud (parent communication), SAM People (HR), and Unifrog (careers) — and provides each enrolled student with a laptop. Its core outputs are academic outcomes (2025 GCSE: 100% Good Pass in English and Maths, 98.4% overall pass rate, average Progress 8 of 0.85; 2025 A-Level: 98.5% pass rate, 57% grades A*–B) and progression outcomes (77% to undergraduate study, 12% to degree apprenticeships).

Beths generates revenue primarily through per-pupil Department for Education funding via the UK state academy system and secondarily through a community-facing facilities hire programme (sports halls, drama and recording studios, science labs, external grounds) operated with School Plus and the enni.space booking platform. There is no tuition, no external ownership, and no commercial shareholders; governance is provided by a 13-member Board of Trustees and five Trust Members.
