Beverley High School is pleasantly situated in the centre of the attractive market town of Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The catchment area is socially mixed and provides a full range of ability, taking students from Beverley and the surrounding villages of Tickton, Walkington, Wawne and Woodmansey.
The school has a committed staff of 50 full-time equivalent teachers and they reflect across-section of age and experience. There are over 120 staff employed by the school of which 60 are teachers (full and part-time).
Every pupil is assigned on entry to one of five mixed ability tutor groups, which are also house groups. Most of the social life of the school takes place within these Houses, for example there are regular inter-house competitions in most sports and for overall progress in academic work.
A pupil usually remains with her tutor group for five years. She has, where possible, the same form tutor from Years 7 to 11. Year Leaders are responsible for pupils within a particular year group and an Assistant Head teacher has responsibility for the Joint Sixth Form she is responsible for pupils in Years 12-13 on both Beverley High School and Beverley Grammar School sites.
