Support for Durham High School Families
We are deeply saddened to hear of the closure of Durham High School.
Our thoughts are with the pupils, families, staff and wider school community affected by this news.
We understand this will be an incredibly difficult and uncertain time for everyone involved.
Supporting your next steps
At Red House School in Norton, we are here to support families as they consider their next steps. With a Nursery, Junior School and Senior School, we welcome enquiries from families exploring new school places.
GCSE continuity and reassurance
For pupils who have already chosen their GCSE options or begun their GCSE studies, we would like to offer reassurance.
The examination boards we use for GCSEs closely align with those used at Durham High School, with the majority of GCSE subjects following the AQA specification. This provides valuable continuity and helps to make any transition as smooth as possible.
We’re here to help
Every child’s situation is unique, and we are here to help you explore the options available and support you in finding the right next step for your family.
