School Information

Our School is part of London South East Academies Trust - a multi academy trust sponsored by London South East Colleges.

The Trust brings together specialist provision to offer a real alternative to mainstream education for young people across the region.

Please visit the London South East Academies Trust Website for further information.

Bromley Educational Trust appointed Neil Miller as Executive Headteacher in September 2015 to set an effective strategic direction and provide outstanding leadership across our network of schools. Neil supports the Heads of School to drive improvement, ensuring all young people within the Trust receive a good education and have the opportunity to reach their full potential.

Bromley Trust Academy  -  Hayes Campus

Headed up by Julie Loizou since July 2015, Bromley Educational Trust took control of this school in 2014. It was a failing school and at risk of closure.
Under the leadership of Julie and her team, the school has been turned around completely and now offers provision to 82 students aged 11-16. Many continue to face a number of difficulties – having been excluded or unable to cope with mainstream school.
Our Hayes Campus offers young people the chance to be part of the school community. We prepare them for their future lives by building self-esteem, whilst developing academic knowledge.

In 2015/16 100% of our Year 11 students progressed into Further Education, employment or an apprenticeship. Additionally, 69% achieved five GCSEs or more.

We have no doubt that our students will continue to achieve and progress will improve further – thanks to their hard work and the great commitment of our staff.

Bromley Trust Academy - Midfield Campus 

This school offers education and support for 5-11 year olds, who are at risk of being or who have been permanently excluded from primary schools. Head of School, Rob Freeman and his team work tirelessly with the students, aiming to help them return to mainstream school or access a specialist school setting if more appropriate.

Previously known as Grovelands School, Bromley Educational Trust converted the failing school to an academy under its umbrella in September 2014. Since this time, huge progress has been made and student achievement has improved dramatically.

In 2015/16 over half of our Year 6 students moved in a mainstream school for Year 7, which is a remarkable achievement.

 Bromley Beacon Academy - Orpington Campus

Formerly known as Burwood School, BBA was convertused to a BET Academy in February 2016. Previously open to boys, it was extended in September 2016 to accept girls, creating a mixed provision.

This site now offers provision for Key Stages 2&3 (7-14) students with Social, Emotional, Mental Health (SEMH) needs. The focus is on developing core literacy and numeracy skills, whilst providing a broad range of other curriculum areas to ensure students are interested and engaged.

Headed up by Jayne Naylor, BBA Orpington provides a safe and supportive learning environment to help young people – often with complex needs - to grow into purposeful young adults who have ambitions and aspirations.

Bromley Beacon Academy - Bromley Campus

Our outstanding £3.5m campus opened in September 2016, expanding provision for 14-18 year old students with SEMH needs. This new build offers industry-standard facilities in a number of vocational areas including a music recording studio, fully-equipped kitchens, construction and motorcycle workshops.

In order to prepare students for progression into further education and work, literacy and numeracy is a key part of the curriculum, along with therapeutic and counselling support.

The number of students at BBA has increased since its opening – and this is set to rise further over the coming year. Head of School, Gareth McCullough and his team continue to work tirelessly to ensure that students, many with very complex needs, have the best possible chance to achieve their full potential.
