Pastoral

Newcastle School for Boys is a caring school with a nurturing, family environment, offering small class sizes. Dedicated staff know all of the boys; not just their names but who they aspire to be.

We are very proud of the exceptional pastoral care we are able to offer our pupils – to allow them to feel safe and happy at school at all times. At the centre of our staff members’ interests is the well-being of the boys both in and outside of school and their education is delivered with this in mind at all times.

Integral to this, is the relationship between our staff, pupils and home and we work to develop this from even before a boy walks through our doors on their first day. In addition to their class teacher, each pupil will know and feel supported by the management, learning support and office staff equally.

Relationships with their peers are supported by each boy’s involvement in our character education programme developing the pupils awareness of traits such as courage, empathy and resilience. As a result, pupils are equipped with the skills to develop friendships that enhance both their personal and school life.


Small class sizes to ensure all boys receive the highest level of support.

We really appreciate the support that my boys get from school and the teachers. Our sons feel at home at school and this is thanks to you all.
