Beechcroft St Paul’s is a popular school within 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 nursery children in Eden in 2013. In August 2017 we joined DSAT as part of the Bay Hub.

Staff and governors work hard to ensure the very best educational opportunities for every child as a unique individual.
