Latest NewsTop School Attracts German Students to Join Sixth Form
Five teenage girls from Stuttgart have abandoned their Sixth Form studies in Germany to test out the English education system for a month. Nursery Judged as OUTSTANDING!
Best GCSE results in the RegionWith 77% of all entries at GCSE being awarded A*/A and five girls achieving A*s in every subject taken, Central Newcastle High School GDST is delighted with this year's results. |
Spanish The Spanish Department offers the opportunity to learn this valuable world language to pupils from Year 7 to 13. We organise regualr visits to Andalucia to pupils from Year 8 onwards. This trip takes place during February half term holidays and is based in Córdoba. The pupils attend Spanish lessons at the Académia Hispánica as well as visiting famous monuments, palaces and gardens. Part of this experience is the opportunity for the girls to meet with their pen-pals, to sample “real Spanish food “in tapas restaurants and to research “in depth” the latest fashion at various well known shops.
For Year 12 and some Year 13 students we have run a very successful Exchange with “Colegio Peleteiro” in Santiago the Compostela, Galicia. By this point in their studies the girls are confident enough with the language to enjoy the experience and are able to improve their communication skills as well as sample “home and school life” Spanish style. All Year 13 and some Year 12 students attend The Spanish Sixth Form One Day Conference at Ampleforth College, York in October. This annual event, organised by ALL (The Association for Language Learning), offers yet another opportunity for the girls to hear native speakers and to obtain more information on their A Level topics.
For those who either missed out on trips and exchanges or simply love Spanish Tapas we visit one of our Spanish Resaturants in Newcastle during the year. |
Staff at Central Newcastle High School are celebrating after a recent Ofsted Inspection judged the provision of care and education in the Nursery as outstanding in all categories.
