The Beacon secondary school in Banstead, Surrey

[Hologram17]

Hi all, can anyone give me any experiences whether positive or negative of the Beacon Secondary school in Banstead, Surrey?

Historically it has always had a bad reputation but I know that people are expecting a rapid improvement now that it is part of the GLF multi academy trust.

That's interesting as whilst there are some very good schools within the GLF there are several that are considered unpopular. I guess time will tell.Thanks for your reply.

I am also searching secondary schools in Banstead. Looked at Beacon but got put off by their shady statistics.

Here are the stats in case you haven’t seen them OP.

Banstead isn’t great for state schools. I think I’d give Harris Sutton as it’s close to Banstead. Overton Grange is ok and often undersubscribed so you might have a chance there too.
