Castle Newnham

Our Big Tech Mission launched on Friday Transforming technology for a brighter future. See the 'Tech for Learning' page on our school website for the full guide. #TeamCastle let's build something exciting, together 💛💙

It's been wonderful to welcome so many prospective families to our daytime tours, giving them the opportunity to explore the school and get a feel for life at Castle Newnham. With this in mind, if you're still undecided or haven't yet had the opportunity to visit us, why not take advantage of a Principal's Tour during half term? Although the school will be quieter without our usual buzz of students and staff, it's still a valuable opportunity to look around, discover more about what we offer and ask any questions you may have. We'd love to welcome you and help you feel confident about your child's next steps. 💙 📍 Castle Newnham School 🎓 Prospective Year 7 families – September 2027

We are thrilled to announce an ambitious new chapter in digital learning at Castle Newnham - you will be hearing lots more next half term. As part of our Great Big Mission, we are teaming up with renowned education technology expert Emma Darcy to help shape a forward-thinking, thoughtful, and safe approach to technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) across our all-through school. 💡 Preparing Our Pupils for the Future Technology and AI are rapidly changing the world outside the classroom. We want to ensure our children aren't just using technology, but are growing up to be confident, creative, critical, and safe digital citizens. Our goal isn't just about getting the newest gadgets or chasing tech trendsit's about asking the right questions and finding meaningful ways technology can: Enhance learning and teaching in the classroom Help every child thrive and feel supported Build essential digital skills for life beyond school 🤝 Working Together with Our Community Emma Darcy brings a wealth of experience in helping schools use technology purposefully and safely. Together with her expertise, research, staff experience, pupil voice, and feedback from parents and carers, we will develop a long-term strategy that puts our children and their learning first.
