newlands girls' school
Berkshire
As the school enters a new era, I am incredibly proud to be taking on the role
of Headteacher, and am determined to work alongside students, staff, parents,
carers and governors to ensure we remain an outstanding school. Newlands has
been providing high quality education for over one hundred years. During this
time, the school has gone from strength to strength and currently sits in the
top 10% of state schools in terms of pupil progress; as a team, we will work
tirelessly to maintain this standard. I am committed to ensuring that students
receive the education, support and opportunities they need to achieve incredible
things. They deserve the very best experience possible. Our ethos is based on
the 3Cs - the values which underpin everything we do. Courage, Commitment and
Compassion are at the heart of our approach to school life and drive our
students to ‘set no limits’ on their success. At Newlands, all pupils can expect
impressive teaching from well-qualified specialists. Facilities include an
indoor swimming pool, sports hall, gym, drama studio, design and technology
suite and a dedicated music block. With a broad and balanced curriculum, which
stretches and excites, there is always something new and interesting to learn.
As parents, we know that the happiness of our children, alongside success - be
it academic, sporting or creative - is our top priority. We are committed to
nurturing and challenging everyone in the school, and it is our goal to deliver
academic outcomes, as well as rounded, confident young people. Our expert
pastoral team ensures that every student is cared for, with an emphasis on the
promotion of wellbeing. Kindness, good humour and politeness characterise
everyday life at Newlands and excellent behaviour and positive relationships
underpin our school values, which helps keep everyone safe and happy.
