Academic

We are proud of the excellent academic results that our Boys’ School achieves each year.

We are consistently in the top schools for academic performance for Newcastle upon Tyne and the North East. Our boys work hard and set themselves ambitious goals as individuals and we are always thrilled when they exceed their own expectations. 

Last year, over 60 per cent of this talented year group of boys were awarded results in the grade 9 - 7 range. We are also proud that approximately 17 per cent of all GCSEs were awarded the highest grade 9 result, more than three times the national average.

Our Diamond Structure contributes greatly to the academic success at GCSE level. Boys and girls learn differently and at different rates and at Dame Allan’s Schools, we are able to cater for this thanks to our separate Girls' and Boys' Schools where teaching styles can be tailored according to these needs.
