Atkinson Road is a popular, thriving and vibrant school. We are situated in the heart of the west end of Newcastle and have been serving our community for over a century. During this time we have tasked ourselves in making our children feel happy, safe and secure whilst providing them with a wealth of experiences and opportunities to develop as well rounded, well educated and successful, independent individuals. 

We are an outstanding school who believes in our school motto that ‘Together We’re Better’. We know how much you will have done with your child before they reach us and value your input and opinions. Children get one chance with their education and at Kingston Park we want this to be the best. Our vision is to ensure that every child is the best that they can possibly be. In 2014 we were in the top 1% of schools nationally.

Welbeck Academy opened on 1 September 2012, in the former Welbeck Primary School, to serve the population of Walker and Byker in the east end of Newcastle upon Tyne and provides a first-class education for children aged 2 to 11 years.  We are proud to be sponsored by WISE Academies and fully support the WISE ethos of aiming to be outstanding in all that we do.  We are rightfully proud of the academy's provision which helps children to grow as individuals whilst aiming for the highest academic standards.
