Post-16 Destination Success

At River Tyne Academy Gateshead, we are committed to ensuring that every young person is supported to achieve their ambitions and move successfully into their next stage of education, training, or employment. 

We take great pride in the achievements of our students as they transition from school into post-16 destinations. Through personalised support, high expectations, and strong partnerships with local providers, we help students identify pathways that match their interests, strengths, and future goals. 

Supporting Successful Futures

Our students demonstrate resilience, determination, and a commitment to personal growth as they prepare for life beyond school. We work closely with colleges, training providers, employers, and support services to ensure that every student has access to meaningful opportunities and the guidance they need to make informed choices about their future. 

Our Commitment to Success

Personalised Guidance

Every student receives tailored careers education, information, advice, and guidance to help them explore options, set goals, and plan confidently for their next steps. 

Strong Local Partnerships

We have established positive relationships with local colleges, training providers, employers, and community organisations, creating a wide range of progression opportunities for our students. 

Developing the Whole Person

Alongside academic achievement, we focus on building confidence, independence, resilience, communication skills, and employability skills, preparing students for success in further education, training, employment, and adult life. 

Ongoing Support

Our commitment to our students does not end when they leave River Tyne Academy Gateshead. We continue to support transitions and work collaboratively with families and providers to help ensure positive outcomes. 

Celebrating Achievement

We believe that every young person deserves the opportunity to thrive and achieve their potential. We are proud of the destinations our students secure and the progress they make as they move forward into exciting new chapters of their lives. 

Together, we are building confident, ambitious young people who are ready to embrace the opportunities and challenges of the future.
