3 February 2026 Inspiring Enrichment Across Gosforth Group!
Last week, Year 10 students from North Gosforth Academy attended the world premiere of 'Weird' at Newcastle Theatre Royal, a bold new musical reimagining Macbeth through the eyes of the iconic Weird Sisters.
With Year 10 students set to be assessed on Macbeth in their final English Literature GCSE exam, this experience offered a powerful and engaging way to deepen their understanding of key themes, characters, and plot developments.
Our students represented the academy and Trust brilliantly, fully engaged, thoughtful, and inspired by seeing Shakespeare brought to life in such a creative way. Experiences like this are part of our wider commitment to broadening horizons, enriching learning, and fostering a love of culture and the arts across all Gosforth Group academies.
Well done to everyone involved, a fantastic example of learning beyond the classroom!

Gosforth Academy Sixth Form French Exchange Sixth Form students have just returned from an unforgettable French exchange in Gap, nestled in the beautiful HautesAlpes region! During the week, students immersed themselves in French language and culture, living with host families, exploring local life, attending an ice hockey match, and spending time in French schools. They even helped teach simple English lessons in local primary classes, gaining confidence, independence and valuable communication skills along the way. It was a truly enriching experience that many have described as a highlight of their Sixth Form journey so far.

View PostGerman Enrichment Day with the Munich Supercrew! Great Park Academy were thrilled to host the amazing Munich Supercrew last week for a special German enrichment event, and it was electric from start to finish. Students kicked off the day learning German in fun, interactive sessions, then wrapped it up by joining a full-on German rock concert right here in school! The academy also welcomed four other schools to share in the experience, making it a brilliant celebration of language, music, and culture. Here's a mini video capturing the energy of the day with clips featuring our students, staff, and the band's lead singer. Enjoy the highlights! #GreatParkAcademy #GosforthGroup #CreatingFutures #LanguageLearning #CommunitySchools #GermanEnrichment
