Miss Sadie Skivington
Headteacher
Welcome to Newtown Primary School, proudly part of Cumbria Education Trust.
At Newtown, every child is at the heart of everything we do. We are passionate about helping each and every child become the very best they can be, both academically and personally. We believe that all children have unique talents and strengths, and we are ambitious for every child, encouraging them to aim high, embrace challenges and develop the confidence to achieve their full potential.
Our school is a warm, nurturing and inclusive community where children feel happy, safe and valued. We know that children thrive when they feel supported and cared for, and we are committed to creating an environment where everyone is welcomed, respected and encouraged to succeed.
We strive to inspire a love of learning that will stay with our pupils throughout their lives. Through an engaging and stimulating curriculum, rich experiences and high expectations, we equip children with the skills, knowledge and resilience they need to become successful, confident and independent learners.
Strong relationships are at the centre of school life. We recognise the importance of friendships, kindness and belonging, and we invest time in helping children build positive relationships and create happy memories. We aim to spark curiosity, inspire awe and wonder, and provide opportunities that broaden horizons and develop a lifelong enthusiasm for learning.
We firmly believe that a successful education is built on a strong partnership between school and home. By working together, sharing successes and addressing any concerns openly and promptly, we can provide the very best support for your child throughout their journey with us.
It is a privilege to lead our wonderful school, and I look forward to building a positive and successful partnership with you as we work together to help your child thrive and flourish.
