Barr Beacon Language College is a mixed secondary school in Aldridge, Metropolitan Borough of Walsall, England. In 2005, ex-Headteacher Hilary Sergeant resigned after staff backed a motion of no confidence in her leadership. Since then, Barr Beacon has had seven different Headteachers. On April 16th 2007, Dame Maureen Brennan left Hillcrest School and Community College to become the school's eighth Headteacher.
