Learn more about our pastoral care, and how we support our pupils
From the classrooms and labs, to the sports facilities, art spaces, newly-refurbished Sixth Form, and wellbeing spaces, every part of the school reflects our commitment to nurturing confident, capable and resilient learners. You’ll experience the culture of respect, ambition and support that runs through every lesson, every activity and every corner of our school.
A visit is the best way to see how our ethos — combining academic challenge, pastoral care and co-curricular opportunity — comes to life every day, and to understand why so many families choose Dame Allan’s as the right place for their child to thrive.
At present, there are no Open Days coming up at the Senior School and Sixth Form. Please get in touch to arrange a visit and personal tour at your convenience.
Dame Allan’s Senior School and Sixth Form are located in Fenham, around 10 minutes outside of Newcastle city centre.
We help to provide a wide range of transport choices for pupils, before and after school, and each year we are offering more tailored and convenient options. The booklet below contains a comprehensive guide to the various transport options available as well as some top tips to take into account when travelling to and from Dame Allan’s Schools.
Several of the bus services are managed by specialist school transport management company, Vectare. Further details, including the list and map of the services provided and booking details, can be found in the leaflet or the link below.
Many of our pupils choose to travel by public transport. We would recommend that pupils travelling by public transport take advantage of the various discounts available to them. The Nexus Pop card, available for U16, allows them to travel with concessionary child fares all day, every day on all public transport in Tyne and Wear. They also have a Pop blue card for U18 that may be suitable for sixth form pupils. Further details can be found on the Nexus Website.
Please note that we expect our pupils to behave responsibly on transport to and from Dame Allan’s Schools.
At Dame Allan’s Junior School, pastoral care is not just a supporting feature, it is a defining strength.
At Dame Allan’s Schools, learning is designed to inspire. Pupils explore a rich and ambitious range of subjects that extend well beyond the National Curriculum.
