Beyton Middle School

Beyton Middle School is a middle school for 9-13 year olds in West Suffolk. It currently enrolls about 800 pupils in Years 5 to 8. The majority of students come from surrounding villages and mostly go onto Thurston Community College or Stowupland High School.

It has a swimming pool and is a good school for sport but it is unfortunately under threat because of the new two tier system in the area.

Every year Beyton Middle School holds a cross country event where each pupil runs against the other pupils in their year.
