WELCOME TO WEST NEWCASTLE ACADEMY
School Office (0191) 273 9477
We are an Ofsted-rated ‘Good’ primary school with a fresh approach to learning.
At West Newcastle Academy, our vision is that all children will achieve their full potential, with holistic support, whilst they enjoy, own and drive their learning, gaining self-respect, self-esteem and self- belief.
Inspired by Reggio Emilia and Danish schools, this is a school like no other. We have a personalised approach, building learning environments that are meaningful to every child, because we know that children learn best when they are engaged in their learning.
Our vision is that all children will achieve their full potential, with holistic support, whilst enjoying and driving their own learning, gaining self-respect, self-esteem and self- belief. Our classroom extends to rich, exciting environments within the forest, the beach, the city and the community as a whole.
About Our School
This is a new school and a new way of learning for the families in West Newcastle.
We aim to provide space and time for children to develop a deeper way of learning, seek and for parents to be engaged in that process.
By exploring learning in small groups and in many different contexts; the city, forest, beach, school and home we will ensure every child has many opportunities to learn in ways the best match their interests.
We hope that supportive environment, together with a high ratio of skilled staff, volunteers and parents, will enable children to be enthusiastic and independent learners.
Children will be encouraged and expected to outperform their peers educationally, socially and make a positive contribution to their community.
