King James I Community Arts College, Bishop Auckland

Welcome.

Our Mission at King James is...

To identify and fulfil the needs of every pupil and nurture the ‘Growth’ of each individual.

To continue to raise standards and stimulate learning through a range of motivating and challenging experiences that extend beyond the classroom.

To tackle low expectations and raise aspirations by offering clear pathways to further and higher education and work-related training.

To provide a stimulating journey to adulthood and working life so that our pupils take up worthwhile places in their communities.

To equip all pupils to recognise their rights and responsibilities as citizens of their local, wider and global communities.

To engender a belief in lifelong learning for pupils and members of the wider community through a range of family learning experiences and opportunities for adults to return to learning.

Mr A.S. Rodchester,
Headteacher.
