Whickham School has been awarded 23 “outstanding” grades in its latest inspection by the Goverment’s school inspectors, Ofsted. Winning the highest accolade possible coincided with news of a grant to the school of £1 million it invest in buildings.
Previously the school did not fit the criteria for funding through the “Private Finance Initiative” or “Building Schools for the Future” schemes. Despite this , the school has very impressive GCSE results.
The funding will be used to build a new classroom block and redevelop dining facilities. A number of temporary classrooms will also be removed when the new facilities are completed.
