The slugs have taken off the top of my new dwarf beans will this plant grow or will it die?

I share your pain mine have been decimated too.
Unfortunately I think the very wet weather has tipped the scales in favour of the slugs.
I think it is rather unlikely those plants will recover so I suggest that you sow some more at home and then plant them out under plastic bottles as protection. Having said that I would also leave the existing plants in situ till your replacement plants are ready just in case they beat the odds and recover.
