Specialising in technical subjects such as Mechanical Engineering, Building Construction and Academic. The buildings (Opposite the Seamans Home) were shared with the then Erith Grammar School. To facilitate the school's expansion in 1960-61, it was moved to its current site near Bexley village, and its name was changed to ''Bexley/Erith Technical School'' to reflect its new location. A few years later, this was expanded to ''Bexley/Erith Technical High School for Boys''; the name it maintained for several decades and giving rise to the school's common name, BETHS or B.E.T.H.S. The school was later granted grammar school status,〔 〕 and became known as ''BETHS Grammar School for Boys'' until the most recent change to Beths Grammar School, in which all pupils were notified through an assembly. In 1995, the school was awarded DfES Technology College specialist status,〔 which provided extra funding for Design and Technology, ICT, Science and Mathematics. In 1998 the school won the School Sports Award, recognising the achievement of the school in Rugby and Football, the two main school sports, and others.
