History

The school started in 1960 as Gosforth East Secondary School and became Gosforth East Middle School when Northumberland County Council changed to a three-tier education system in 1973.

In 2003, Gosforth East had a new building erected.^[3] This building costing £4 million was officially opened on 12 September 2003 by David Bell, who then was Chief Inspector of Schools.^[4]

Gosforth East was inspected by Ofsted in 2009; the report noted, "this is a good and improving school."

In 2014 the Gosforth Schools Trust was formed with Archibald First, Archbishop Runcie CE First, Broadway East First, Brunton First, Dinnington First, Gosforth Central Middle, Gosforth East Middle, Gosforth Park First, Grange First, Regent Farm First and South Gosforth First School.^[5]
