As Head teacher of Fellside Community Primary School, I am proud to welcome you to our website where you will find out information about the way we learn, grow and achieve together. 

We are situated in the heart of Whickham and we very much a community school; here to serve families in the locality and to provide an outstanding education for children.  We are very proud of the strong partnership that exists between Fellside parents and school staff and governors; this forms a major part of our success on which our school is based.  We are committed to meeting the needs of all Fellside children, ensuring each and every one of them reaches their potential; fostering a lifelong love for learning for learning.

We are a school who values the whole child and are incredibly proud to do so.  Every member of our Fellside community is supported to reach their full potential through the opportunities and experiences which we provide to nurture their skills, interests and talents.  Our calm and nurturing environment supports children to learn and progress, and our Learning Values (known as our “Seven Cs”) enable all of our children to fully understand what makes a good learner in every aspect of life.  You will find more information about our Learning Values by following the link at the side of the page.

Our Character Compass is embedded into our daily life at Fellside.  Our children are expected to have integrity, demonstrate honesty, have tolerance and show respect in all that they do. You will find more information about these behavioural expectations by following the link at the side of the page.

This website will share a snapshot of life in our wonderful school.  If you are new to the school community or you simply want to know, please do contact our main office to arrange a visit.  It will be my pleasure to show you round and share our school with you.
