Our Principal, Preit Chahal, shared his pride and commented, "It is wonderful that Gosforth Academy has been recognised so highly in The Sunday Times Parent Power Guide 2026, and it is a testament to the hard work of staff and students in the school. Everyone at the school strives to deliver the best possible education to the young people who attend our school. We provide a high-quality academic curriculum, and students achieve exceptionally well. However, we also aim to provide the best possible pastoral care, enrichment opportunities, and experiences so that students look back on their time at school with fond memories. We are well aware that it takes a full community to raise a child, and we are lucky to have such strong partnerships, including that of parents/carers, which enable our young people to thrive".
