Excelsior Academy NEWCASTLE
Our Vision
Message From the Academy Sponsor
Peter Fair OBE
Chair of Governors
I believe that the model we have developed for Excelsior Academy - that of four 11 to 16 schools plus the post-16 Excelsior College - delivers both the required educational and social benefits for the students.
Under the direction of the Executive Principal and the leadership of the School Principals, all staff are responsible for ensuring that all students not only achieve their potential academically, but develop an entrepreneurial ‘can do’ attitude which will stand them in good stead for the rest of their lives.
For students the Academy day is longer than a standard school day with core curriculum, optional subjects and enrichment activities to maximise the learning opportunities.
The Academy shares best practice with education partners in the city, works with our partners in the community and is central to the regeneration of the area.
