Welcome

Welcome to our warm and friendly academy, where we celebrate the diversity of our community through our motto: All Different, All Welcome.

Our values of Respect, Resilience and Responsibility are woven through everything we do, ensuring a consistent approach that enables every child to thrive.

At Newark Hill, our mission is clear: Every Child Matters and Every Moment Counts. We believe children learn best when they feel safe, valued and emotionally supported. Pupil wellbeing is at the heart of our work, and we are committed to ensuring that every child is ready to learn, achieve and succeed.

Learning is centred around our CHILD Pledge, which shapes our curriculum and wider opportunities:

• Challenge ourselves to achieve our very best.
• Promote Health and Happiness.
• Be Inspired through new experiences and opportunities.
• Foster a love of Lifelong Learning.
• Celebrate Diversity and the uniqueness of every individual.

This commitment runs throughout academy life, helping pupils develop the knowledge, skills and character they need to flourish both now and in the future.

We are proud of the high standards that can be seen throughout our academy and of the strong sense of belonging that exists within our school community. Our pupils are encouraged to be ambitious, respectful and responsible citizens who make a positive difference to the world around them.

Play is a vital part of childhood and learning. Through our exceptional outdoor provision, pupils develop creativity, teamwork, resilience and independence. We are immensely proud to have achieved the OPAL Double Platinum Award, recognising our commitment to providing outstanding play opportunities that enhance children's development, wellbeing and enjoyment of school.

At Newark Hill Academy, every child is known, valued and supported to succeed because we believe that Every Child Matters and Every Moment Counts.
