Gilesgate Campus

The Gilesgate Campus accommodates most of our work at Key Stages 3 and 4.

There is a strong focus on generating a positive climate for learning based on the following core values:

  1. People matter

  2. Learning is best achieved in partnership

  3. People can be developed

  4. Achievements are worthwhile, diverse and valuable

  5. Learning is progressive and life-long.

One of our goals is to establish, for each student, the foundation upon which life-long learning will become a reality.  We therefore personalise and enrich the curriculum at every opportunity.

A strong emphasis is placed on engaging with students in the learning process.  They are encouraged to participate in a full range of curricular and extra curricular activities.  They have a voice and they are encouraged to take the lead in a range of settings.

Students are fully supported by Learning Support Assistants, a Learning Mentor, interventions to boost performance along with access to information, advice and guidance as part of our extended services.

We nurture our young people in a caring, challenging and aspirational way.
