Glendale Community Middle School is a spacious, two-storey building, originally designed as a Secondary Modern School in 1953. It is situated on the eastern edge of the small, rural town of Wooler, gathering its pupils from a catchment area of approximately 200 square miles.

The main building includes a large hall with a stage, which is used for a wide range of activities, including dining, as there is fully equipped kitchen attached.

There are seven general classrooms, all with ICT facilities and most with interactive whiteboards. There is an ICT suite which can accommodate up to 35 users, a library, science laboratory, food and textiles room, art room and technology workshop, many of which have been fully updated in the last three years.

The school is fortunate to have excellent sporting facilities. There are generous playing fields, with pitches for soccer, rugby and hockey, plus an athletics track and jumping areas, a full sized, well equipped gymnasium, with changing rooms and showers and an indoor heated learner swimming pool.

Adjacent to the main building is the Youth and Community Centre which has a fully fitted kitchen and toilet facilities. The centre is also available for hire as a conference/training course facility.
