Beechcroft St Paul’s is a popular school situated in an
urban part of Weymouth. It opened 26 years ago as a purpose-built infant
school. In 2003 it became a Church of England Primary School and over the years
the school building has been extended including provision for Foundation 1
children in Eden. In August 2017 we joined DSAT as part of the Weymouth Bay
Hub.
Eden has developed into a thriving setting with 24 children
in most sessions and a growing waiting list. The Eden staff and children work
closely with our reception class as part of a foundation unit and is led by our
experienced EYFS lead, who teaches our reception class.
