We are a large primary school on the edge of Loughborough with an MLD Special Provision and Nursery.
Beacon is a great place to be where children are at the centre of what we do. We work closely as a team to improve the life chances of our children who come from all over Loughborough, including Shelthorpe Estate. Our intake is mixed; with a high number of children with EHCPs and over half our children are entitled to free school meals. Therefore everyone who works at Beacon has a drive to make sure that our children get the best education they possibly can, this has its challenges but is incredibly rewarding.
We endeavour to work closely with other schools locally and have a number of links to Ashmount Special School through the Loughborough Learning Alliance (LLA). The LLA provide local professional development and enable us to moderate our work within the Loughborough Area. Nationally we are linked to Lift Schools where we are able to use nation research and resources to impact our teaching and learning.
The staff at Beacon are our greatest resource and we will nurture and develop you throughout your career. Being part of Lift Schools means every employee at every level is able to access tailored CPD and opportunities to work across the group as they progress.
We warmly welcome visitors and hope that you will come and see for yourself just what we are about and whether or not working here is right for you.
Thank you for your interest in our school; we can't wait to meet you!
General Information
Beacon Primary Academy is a 2 to 11 aged community academy in the Shelthorpe area of Loughborough.
The school originally opened in 1933 as an infant and junior school and was later amalgamated into a single school. The Nursery building was opened in 2005. The school also benefits from an extensive field space for outdoor activities. In December 2012 it became part of a network of schools sponsored by Lift Schools.
It is a larger than average-sized primary academy with 309 pupils. Included in this figure, is a 40-place Moderate Learning Difficulty (MLD) resource provision for children with an Education & Health Care Plan (EHC) or a Statement of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. Our popular 80-place full-time equivalent (FTE), term-time only Nursery includes a 6 FTE Severe Learning Difficulty (SLD) resource provision.
There are various clubs and activities that take place on site during the evenings and at weekends for adults and children within the community. There is a weekly Family Learning group that works alongside one of the teachers and children in Key Stage 1. The area has good transport links and the Academy is close to Loughborough University. Housing is a mixture of council and affordable dwellings. This is a community that is growing as can be seen from the high numbers of pupils in Key Stage 1.
