excelsior academy
Newcastle
I am privileged to be the Principal of Excelsior Academy - the first all-through
school in Newcastle, offering education to pupils from 3 to 19 years of age. Our
ethos is clear; to be a community school which creates and builds aspiration
through high quality care and education. We want all of our learners to
flourish, enjoy school and be prepared to progress to exciting and wide ranging
future opportunities. Excelsior comprises three phases: Primary, Secondary and
Sixth Form. We are fortunate to have excellent accommodation and facilities
which can cater for the needs of all age groups and needs. However, a school is
not the building but the people. We are equally fortunate to have dedicated and
skilful teaching and support staff who work tirelessly to build positive and
meaningful relationships with young people, families and the community in order
to work together to fulfil our ethos. We value learning in and out of the
classroom, and want to provide young people at Excelsior with enrichment
opportunities so that they develop their skills, knowledge and potential. We
want to do our very best so that the pupils see themselves as responsible and
compassionate global citizens.
