The school celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2008.[4] Some of the school buildings were constructed in 1875, as part of St Mary’s School, which became part of Beverley High School when it opened.[5]
Beverley High School is a five-form comprehensive school for girls, with key stage 3 and 4 for those aged 11–16. At the end of this period, pupils sit the GCSE exams. The school currently has 816 pupils on their roll.
The Joint Sixth Form is the final stage before pupils leave school to either seek further education or employment, and is conducted jointly with Beverley Grammar School. Pupils split their time between the two schools. During the Sixth Form pupils sit only A2 exams. The sixth form also accepts pupils who have previously attended other schools.[6]
