Welcome to Hexham Middle School

Hexham Middle School is a good school with outstanding features. Pastoral care and the range of extra-curricular activities are excellent.Ofsted, May 2008.


I believe firmly that the education of all our children is most effective when parents and teachers work closely together for the benefit of the pupil. As important, , is the relationship we have with our feeder First Schools and the High School.

Hexham Middle School has excellent facilities and resources with specialist staff in every subject. We are a Specialist School for the Performing Arts of Music, Art, Dance and Drama. This brings added resources for us to work with other professionals, businesses and schools. Standards of attainment will rise yet higher and we are providing added opportunities for developing expertise within the community, including Hexham Abbey and the Hexham Museum Service.

We have also been awarded the prestigious Sportsmark for the second time in recognition of our effective policies and practices for the provision of a well-balanced physical education programme. This includes all the teams and clubs we offer to our pupils, who in their turn make the most of those opportunities.

Most recently we have been formally recognised as a Healthy School. All of these awards, along with our Leading Aspect Award for Special Educational Needs provision are a result of teamwork and partnership.

Here at Hexham Middle School we encourage the children to “have a go” and not be afraid of failure, but rather to develop resilience and an aptitude for lifelong learning.

As well as providing a broad, balanced curriculum and those wonderful enrichment and extension opportunities we strive for academic excellence, supporting each individual to achieve their full potential.
