stokesley school
North Yorkshire
Stokesley School enjoys a strong reputation within the local community and
beyond. Our students are well known for achieving high academic outcomes: we
outperform a range of national attainment figures at GCSE and A-Level. We also
have excellent progression rates with many of our students following higher
education courses and, ultimately, career paths in medicine, veterinary science
and mechanical engineering, to name but a few. Like all schools, we have areas
to improve, but the dedication of our professional staff means we are driving
forward change at a rapid rate and are at a really exciting time in our
development. Furthermore, academic achievement does not tell the full story of
our school: it is equally important to us to develop our students as responsible
and sensitive young adults, fostering within them core values of integrity,
empathy, diligence, discipline, perseverance and – perhaps above all else –
kindness. Our values at school are simple: we want our students to be ready,
respectful and ambitious, and these are underpinned by the school’s motto of
‘being the best we can be’. We do not believe in zero tolerance as every child
is different, but we do believe that all children can achieve high standards of
conduct and performance regardless of their background or personal
circumstances. As part of the Areté Learning Trust, we are an outward facing
school: we work closely with our partner academies, Richmond School and Sixth
Form College and Northallerton School and Sixth Form College, and also
collaborate with other local schools on a range of projects. This enables us to
be highly reflective as a staff and constantly seek new opportunities to promote
success for the young people in our care. The Headteacher of Stokesley School is
Mrs Hannah Millett who can be contacted via the school.
