Excelsior Academy opened in 2008 and has since become Newcastle’s most improved secondary school, consistently judged as good by Ofsted. With a unique and innovative approach to learning and teaching centred around the individual strengths, interests and needs of each pupil, our schools within a school model enables us to provide all our pupils with greater attention and care, and this shows in our academic results, particularly in terms of pupil progress.

Thomas Bewick School is a special school within Prosper Learning Trust in Newcastle upon Tyne. It is for children and young people between three and nineteen years with autistic spectrum conditions. All pupils have a Statement of Special Educational Needs/ Education Health and Care Plan or are in the assessment process. They have a range of learning difficulties; some will require a high level of adult support to access the curriculum, whilst others achieve close to age-related expectations in some areas.

I attend local toddler groups, local library. Local park , school fun days, swimming pools, nature tots.  I have a small back yard with climbing frames and sit and ride toys.
