Beaufort Co-operative Academy is a purpose built 11-18 community comprehensive Academy (Formerly known as Beaufort Community School) serving the southern part of the city of Gloucester.
The main building of the school dates from 1971. Recent developments have included a new Library and IT suites, new Business Studies rooms and refurbished Technology facilities. A new Performing Arts Centre opened in 1997 providing music rooms, recording studio and performance space. Refurbishment of the Science facilities and the main building was completed in December 2001. A new Modern Languages block opened in September 2002 and we have recently completed the construction of a major new teaching block to provide accommodation for Food Technology, Textiles, Art, English and RE/Citizenship.
In September 2010 the Academy opened its doors to welcome students to our new Sixth Form Centre. The new Sixth Form Centre includes a social area, coffee bar, study area, three computer suites and six classrooms. The funding of over £2 million was provided jointly by the Learning and Skills Council and Gloucestershire County Council in recognition of the growth in Sixth Form numbers in recent years.
The Academy includes a large community Sports Centre containing a sports hall, gymnasium, squash courts, fitness suite and an indoor swimming pool, with an outside floodlit multi purpose use area. There are extensive playing fields within Holmleigh Park.
The Academy contains the county's Centre for Hearing Impaired Pupils of secondary school age.
The Academy places a strong emphasis on professional development for staff. There is strong and structured support for all newly appointed staff at all levels in the Academy.
The school is a completely non smoking site.
