Superb Facilities in Extensive Grounds
St Cuthbert’s is a beautiful setting, hidden away in the West end of Newcastle. We have excellent facilities and superb transport links to the region and beyond. The school buildings are set in extensive grounds.
St Cuthbert’s is an excellent school. We are immensely proud of our strong academic success at all levels and and we achieve extraordinary things for and with the boys. We care deeply about results in all aspects of school life, but ultimately, we want the boys to leave as great men who are proud to have been a pupil at St Cuthbert’s.
To that end we have the highest expectations of the boys and of ourselves. We pride ourselves on a balance of tradition and innovation, proud of our heritage but willingly embracing the latest evidence-based research into educational practice and technology.
a supportive environment and strong relationships
St Cuthbert’s is a thriving community. We are immensely proud of the way we foster a supportive and friendly atmosphere: relationships between all staff and between staff and boys are very strong.

a glimpse of what makes St Cuthbert's special
We hope that this website gives you an indication of what life is like at St Cuthbert's. Get to know our community, and discover the people, places and experiences that shape our school.
St Cuthbert’s is a rewarding professional environment. We only recruit the best people to work here and the spark and energy of a talented staff body is infectious.
The Governors recognise the vital importance of staff, and we care very much about professional development; St Cuthbert’s staff as members of the Bishop Bewick Catholic Education Trust can expect to be challenged and supported as they develop their careers.
St Cuthbert’s is not, of course, for everyone. The intensity and challenge of working in a boys school can, at times, be an all-embracing existence. However, if you believe in a genuine all-round education, value the opportunity to help shape lives, have energy, drive, a passion for your subject and a willingness to throw yourself into a busy and dynamic community, we would love to hear from you.
