It is for learners aged between 11 and 16 years. There is a sixth form BCD provision available at the Beacon Academy Site, The Forest Academy.

We believe in equality of opportunity and also in the development of key aptitudes:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u2714 Students attending BCD will be expected to access at least 50% mainstream in Year 7. The mainstream access will be increased as they progress into the above years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714 Within this provision, students are based in small class groups of 6 pupils. BCD will have one class base per year group, with each group having an assigned teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
