At the entrance to Hexham Middle School is a large sign that says:
"Abandon fear of failure all who enter here"...as an invitation to learning and life what could be more apposite - it was put up by the Headteacher and is the schools mantra
This double visit to the Hexham Middle School and Queen Elizabeth Upper School was a great experience, and I learnt a lot from the two very capable and knowledgeable head teachers; spent 4 hours on both sites;
