Our Philosophy...

...It's simple really. We aim to put students at the very heart of everything we do at Weardale House, encouraging each student to excel in their own way.

We aren't "just another activity centre", but a small and friendly education centre where students can make long lasting connections; within themselves, within their peer groups and, within the outdoor environment.
