Achieving at Newtown

"Excellence in Learning for Excellence in Life"

The curriculum we teach at Newtown Community Primary school is designed with what is right for the children of Newtown at its heart.

Our school is socially, ethnically and culturally diverse. Along with the incredible Newtown children, this diversity, we believe, is a strength. It is also a great source of pride and definitely something we celebrate. It brings a wealth of opportunities for children to successfully understand and be well prepared for leading successful and fulfilling lives in modern Britain both now and in the future.
