Newcastle upon Tyne
Choosing the right school for a child is something that I know parents spend
much time and thought on - and rightly so. If you were to ask our parents why
they chose Dame Allan’s they would tell you that the children here are positive
and outgoing, at ease with themselves and each other, yet excited and enthused
by the opportunities ahead of them. By the time they leave school, you will want
your child to have grown into a confident young adult with an awareness of their
potential and the drive to turn their ambitions into reality. So the question
is: what kind of school will help them along that path? It should be a school
which introduces them to inspiring thoughts and experiences; a school where they
feel known and valued; one which challenges them to risk new ideas and helps
them when they need it. If they leave school having learned to break through
self-imposed limits, to value the experiences of others, to persevere when the
going gets tough, then we all have done our job, as parents and teachers. Dame
Allan’s succeeds in combining academic excellence with a wealth of co-curricular
opportunities, all underpinned by a deep commitment to the individual needs and
interests of each child. You’ll find lots on our website about what we do. You
can read about our diamond structure, our ethos and heritage, and see the
activities and successes our pupils enjoy. And if you want to know whether Dame
Allan’s is the right school for your child then the best way to find out is to
make a visit and see for yourself.
