Beacon Schools and Beacon Status
There are two articles: Beacon School and Beacon Status. My understanding from reading them is that "Beacon Schools" are for children, and "Beacon Status" is "for providers funded by the Learning and Skills Council" which are mainly Further Education colleges.

User:JohnFaugno has done a great job of updating this article, but I think the changes should have made to the Beacon School article. It seems that Beacon Status for colleges has also been discontinued now that the Learning and Skills Improvement Service has closed down, and perhaps this article should be merged as a section of the other article.

 * Proceeded with the merge, but in the reverse direction given that the status heading is broader than the school heading. Nevertheless, this does mean that the combined page needs re-balancing to cover the further education colleges properly. Klbrain (talk) 09:48, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
