Jesmond Park Academy is a thriving, inclusive, and ambitious school community, home to over 2,000 students, including a vibrant Sixth Form. We are proud to be a multicultural, co-educational comprehensive academy that values its rich heritage while looking forward with optimism and purpose to the future.
As a proud member of the Gosforth Group, we are part of a family of schools united by a shared commitment to excellence, collaboration, and 'Creating Futures'. This partnership enhances our ability to deliver an outstanding education and ensures our students benefit from a broad network of support and opportunity.
On Saturday the 13th of September our musicians attended a performance by the Royal Northern Sinfonia at The Glasshouse. The program featured a Tchaikovsky violin concerto, a Symphony by Schostakovich and a wonderfully unusual piece called Bioluminescence by Norwegian composer Kristine Tjøgersen. The students were a credit to the School as several audience members commented they were so well behaved. The solo violinist blew them away, and they really enjoyed seeing how an orchestra can be used in other creative ways in Bioluminescence. It was also amazing to see one of our ex-students playing trumpet in the Royal Northern Sinfonia! Time to get the next concert booked in I think!
