The Children and Families Act 2014 requires each local authority in England to appoint at least one person for the purpose of discharging the local authority’s duty to promote the educational achievement of its Looked After Children (LAC) and Young People (LAYP). The Virtual School head teacher (VSH) leads on this and the Virtual School is the support service for undertaking this role in supporting the education of all our looked after children and looked after young people.

Gosforth East Middle offers a rich, happy and stimulating environment for children aged 9 to 13 years. We are all very proud of our School and its successes over the years, and hope the information provided on our website and in our prospectus will give you a sense of what we have to offer.
