Catchment area —  Beths Grammar School does have a catchment area but places preference on 11+ test grades. Priority is given based on location and distance from the school, closest first.

Over-subscription policy —  Where qualifying applications for admission exceed the number of places available, places will be allocated in the following order of priority:

  2. Those boys identified by the Local Authority as achieving one of the highest 180 scores in the selection tests.

On the basis of proximity to the school measured by reference to the shortest radial distance (direct line distance between the applicant’s home address to Beths Grammar School’s east entrance in Hartford Road). In cases where parents live at different addresses, the home address is that at which the child resides for the greater part of the week.

School Summary

Beths Grammar school was established in 1945 and is an all-boys grammar school in Bexley, South-East London. The school has a sixth form which admits girls as well as boys. It became an academy in 2010.

In 1995 the school was awarded Technology College Status.  In 2005, they were identified as one of the first High Performing Specialist Schools and, in 2006, took on a second specialism in languages.  Following an Outstanding Ofsted grading in 2007, Beths became, in 2008, a National Support School.  In 2009 the school added a third specialism to its portfolio, as a Leadership Partner School. 

Languages offered by the school include Mandarin, French, German and Spanish, and the various opportunities that arise include visits to China. In May 2010 they became a ‘Confucius Classroom’ — a hub school for Mandarin Chinese.
