Beautiful Work This Week

XP Gateshead – the most oversubscribed school in the North East!

This week, the Gateshead Chronicle shared the story that XP Gateshead had 2.4 first preference applications for each of the 48 places offered – with 115 parents in total picking it as a first choice, making XPG the most oversubscribed school in the North East just one year after opening!

We asked students from Year 7 and 8 what they think makes their school great…

‘Dear World’ – an update!

The Children of XP Trust are proud to announce that their Charity Single donations will be pledged towards the WildLife Foundation‘s Big Give!

In the Spring of 2022, Year 3 and 4 Pupils from Norton Junior School, Carcroft Primary School, Green Top School and Plover School studied a cross-curricular expedition, ‘What a Wonderful World’ looking to answer the guiding question, ‘Why should we protect our beautiful planet?’

During the Expedition, the students wrote and recorded this beautiful song to raise money for their chosen charity, the WildLife Foundation.

There is no better way to sum up the beauty of the work the students have created than with lyrics from the song created by them… ‘there is no Planet B.’

You can Download the song and make a donation here! https://childrenofxptrust.bandcamp.com/album/dear-world
