Grange First School

Grange First School is a community school catering for a maximum of 352 boys and girls between the ages of 3 and 9 years. 

Children are taught in mixed ability classes, grouped according to chronological age.  There is a 26 place nursery, which currently caters for a mix of full and part time places. We have two classes of 30 children in each year group, reception to year 4. We devote a large part of our budget to ensuring staff/pupil ratios are as low as possible to ensure that our curriculum is as personalised as possible and that all children are able to attain as highly as possible.

Grange First School is part of the Gosforth Schools' Trust; a close working partnership of local first and middle schools. We are also a part of the Gosforth Pyramid of schools consisting of nine first schools, three middle schools and Gosforth High School. Heads and staff of the schools meet regularly to discuss curriculum and organisation, ensuring smooth transition and continuity as children move through the stages of their education in the pyramid.
