School profile

Gateacre School

At Gateacre, we believe that every young person – irrespective of their starting point in life – is unique and special and has the capacity to succeed, and contribute fully to the local and global community.

Our job as an 11-18 school is to help each and every young person discover and unlock their unique talents. This unshakeable belief drives our uncompromising pursuit and journey towards educational excellence.

We expect a climate of mutual care, trust and discipline, as the platform for each young person to thrive and make progress. We expect our young people to demonstrate the highest levels of discipline both within school and on their way to and from school. We expect parent/carers to play a full and active part in ensuring that their child follows our highest expectations on uniform, punctuality, attendance and behaviour. This will complement the drive for an ethos and culture of exemplary standards, behaviours and values.
