About Us
River Tyne Academy, Gateshead is part of a Trust operating five schools across Gateshead and Middlesbrough. We work with learners who have been permanently excluded or whose previous provision has asked us to understand their underlying needs. We help learners return to mainstream or another provision that meets their needs and build a successful future.
Our curriculum is broad and balanced to motivate and engage learners whilst providing core skills and qualifications to enable progression. Learners focus on building Currency, Character and Community knowledge and skills. Our highly trained team deliver a range of GCSEs and vocational programmes with high expectations: as a minimum, learners leave with GCSEs in English and maths and go on to education and training post-16 or employment.
When learners are ready to leave, we work with other organisations to ensure transitions are successful. We value working with parents and carers to ensure they feel supported. Each learner has a link tutor who regularly updates parents and carers, and we value feedback from all stakeholders. If you would like to find out more about River Tyne Academy we look forward to hearing from you.
