It’s my great pleasure to welcome you to James Calvert Spence College, a 10-19 through school that welcome students from Y6 through to Sixth Form. We’re a relatively small, friendly school that is in the heart of its community in Amble, on the beautiful Northumberland coastline.
Our school was formed by the merger of a middle and a high school, giving a unique educational experience for children in our community. Unlike pupils in many primary schools, our key stage 2 children have access to a fabulous array of facilities that are usually reserved for those in secondary school. These facilities including science labs; an art, fashion and DT suite; PE facilities including generous playing fields, tennis courts, a running track, dance studio, sports hall and climbing wall; and well-equipped classrooms and science laboratories.
We have high aspirations for all our students – we expect them to show determination and a desire to achieve highly and, in return, we offer them unwavering support throughout their years with us. In Key Stage 4 and the Sixth Form, we offer a wide range of GCSE and A-Level courses to make sure that there is a relevant pathway into Higher Education, further training or employment for everyone.
JCSC has improved considerably over the last few years with excellent A-level results and rapidly rising GCSE outcomes. This improvement was validated by Ofsted last summer where we achieved ‘Good’ status for the very first time in the school’s history. We’re very proud of this fact, especially as it was a real team effort – every member of our staff contributed to that judgement, and every member of staff plays their part in ensuring our students are well cared for, feel safe and learn well. We’re a kind and caring school, and our kind and caring staff are pivotal in our continued success. When you join JCSC you join a dedicated and supportive team unlike any other.
The staff and governors of the school are committed to its continuing development and improvement, to ensure that it provides education of the highest quality for all students.
It’s a great place to work or study – feel free to contact us and arrange a visit if you’d like to experience all JCSC has to offer first hand.
