Hadrian Learning Trust was established as an academy converter in 2016. The Trust currently comprises Queen Elizabeth High School and Hexham Middle School. Queen Elizabeth High School (QE) is a high-performing 13–18 comprehensive school whose origins date back to 1599. It is situated in the historic market town of Hexham, in a beautiful part of Northumberland, a short drive from Newcastle and Carlisle. With just over 1,300 students on roll, it is a popular and successful school, with a particularly strong sixth form. As well as attracting students from Hexham and its rural hinterland, about a third of students come from outside the catchment area. The school values its reputation as a warm, friendly, welcoming school, and relationships amongst staff and students are excellent. We benefit from a fantastic working and learning environment with first-class facilities following a move into brand new buildings in 2021, adjacent to our front-facing Grade II listed Hydro building, which was refurbished. QE shares its location with Hexham Middle School, with which it has a very close working relationship. Both schools have their own distinct identities but work in tandem to enable some sharing of facilities, teaching and subject leadership. Cross-trust collaboration is overseen by an executive team comprising the Trust’s executive lead, the schools’ headteachers, the Chief Financial Officer and the Business & HR Manager.
