We have 1000 pupils on roll including a Sixth Form of 160. The school is heavily over-subscribed and the roll is steady. We have a good and improving track record of achievement at all examination levels, good resources and facilities and a rich programme of visits and extra-curricular activities. This is an exciting time to join Caldew School. We have had a significant investment from the Story Group of companies that is enabling us to improve our facilities, provide high quality professional development for our staff and give our students opportunities, experiences and support that will raise their aspirations and achievement. Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people in everyone's responsibility at Caldew School and we take this very seriously. We adopt an approach which is child-centred. This means that all staff at Caldew School consider, at all times, what is in our students' best interests. The Safeguarding Team work within the school to ensure that all of our students are safe, happy and thriving. All staff have a duty of care to make sure students are safe and this means that information may need to be shared with other agencies and organisations to make sure that our students and their families get the best possible support. Our Ofsted inspection in June 2022 graded Caldew as ‘good’. However, we are not complacent and we know that there are areas where we need to do better.
