Beech Hall School is a private school in Macclesfield, England and is a member of both IAPS (Independent Association of Preparatory Schools) and ISA (Independent Schools Association).

Beech Hall School was founded in 1926 as a preparatory school for boys.^[1]

The site which Beech Hall stands on dates back to the Iron Age, where it would have been used as a defensive site. The house named Beech Hall has been in existence on the site since 1435, when it was the main residence of the Worth family.^[1] In Victorian times it was called Higher Beech; it has been called Beech Hall since the start of the 20th century. Beech Hall itself is a large country house set in over sixteen acres of wooded grounds.

In 1960, the swimming pool at Beech Hall School was built; during excavation a Bronze Age clay pot, which contained burial bones, was discovered.^{[citation needed]}

In 1966, the school became a limited company and a charitable trust. Girls were first admitted in 1981, and by 2009 one third of the pupils were girls.^{[citation needed]}

School sports include football, hockey, netball, and cricket and there are several teams for boys and girls. But there are non sports activities such as a musical soirée every term, an enrichment week on the last week of term and a talent show at the end of it.
