Tyne Tees Schools

Monkseaton High School is under threat because of a huge financial deficit and falling pupil numbers - something set to hit the region hardest in coming years.

The North Tyneside school's finances and pupil intake pose a threat to the existence of the school, which could close in 2026 if no solutions are found.

Reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) was found in the school building, meaning students were forced to have remote lessons and in alternative venues.
