Born at Dewsbury, Beaumont studied at the University of London and was a prewar volunteer in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve. He was working as a teacher in London on the outbreak of the Second World War and was called up for service with the RAF in September 1939. Once his training was completed he was posted to No. 152 Squadron. He flew Supermarine Spitfire fighters during the Battle of Britain, claiming several aerial victories over the English Channel and along England's southern coast. He went missing, presumed killed on 23 September 1940. He was posthumously awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.
