About Mary Astell Academy

We are an alternative provision academy within Prosper Learning Trust which provides education to pupils from ages 11 to 16. We are proud to be part of the Prosper family with its core vision and values which are reflected in our daily work. Our purpose is to give young people a fresh start and allow them to continue their educational journey. The children we serve are from the City of Newcastle, they are referred to us by their school and join us for a short time, or by the local authority, having been permanently excluded from a mainstream school. We also have staff who travel to local schools and work with children there.

Our students are supported to access a full-time, broad and balanced education appropriate to their potential and educational needs which encourages their reintegration back into a mainstream school setting wherever possible. Individual curriculum offers and experiences are available which allow pupils to develop their skills, make progress, move towards their potential and build foundations upon which they can develop successful futures. Pupils here tell us they’ve found a dedicated and caring team of staff who create a safe and secure environment in which to continue their learning and their development as young people.
