Royal Grammar School Newcastle

Who we are

We believe by inspiring and nurturing hearts and minds, we can give those around us the freedom to create and shape their own future.

A future that is built on our sense of history and belonging in the city but is fuelled by an ambition to succeed and evolve.

A place where freedom of expression, ideas and beliefs can be shared, exchanged and grow openly in our happy environment.

An environment where we look out for each other and treat everyone with care and respect, within and beyond our community.

A spirit to challenge, inspire and stretch the minds of everyone here so we feel free to explore, free to think, free to try, free to dream of possibilities and free to be ourselves.

With hard work, courage and belief in each other, together we have the freedom to make the future our own.

We do this through our purpose and our values which guide everything we do...

Giving those around us the freedom to create their future.
