Whitley Bay High School

Whitley Bay High school is situated in the North East of England on the coast, near to the large vibrant town of Newcastle upon Tyne. It is a large secondary school catering for 1613 students of which 556 are in the sixth form. The students follow a broad balanced curriculum and a high percentage of students go onto study at University.

The school promotes a collaborative approach to learning for students and staff and through a well oragnised and highly regarded training programme develops and trials new teaching techniques and adapts current educational research for use in the classroom. Following a recent Ofsted inspection the school was judged to be outstanding.

The role in this project is to transfer the experience in the self-evaluation-process to other schools and to find out the best way of self-evaluation. We are responsible for the methodological and didactic approaches.
