Beamont Collegiate Academy (formerly William Beamont Community High School) is a mixed secondary school located in the Orford area of Warrington in the English county of Cheshire.[1] The school is named after William Beamont, a Victorian philanthropist and the first mayor of Warrington.
Previously a community school administered by Warrington Borough Council, William Beamont Community High School converted to academy status on 1st March 2013 and was renamed Beamont Collegiate Academy. The school is now sponsored by Warrington Collegiate,[2] however the school continues to coordinate with Warrington Borough Council regarding its admissions.
The school moved into a new building in 2016, funded by the Government’s Priority Schools Building Programme. The new build is located on the same site, and was constructed by Wates Group.[3]
