Welcome to Castle Newnham – a school at the heart of and for the local community. We are very proud to be the Headteachers of this lovely school in the heart of Bedford offering high-quality education and care for pupils from Reception up to age 16.
Our CORE values of Community, Opportunity, Respect and Excellence underpin our work across our whole school and help guide us in serving our children and families.
This is an exciting new chapter for the school as Castle Newnham joined the Bedfordshire Schools Trust (BEST) in September 2024.
The 2024/25 academic year marks the start of a new chapter for Castle Newnham as we have officially joined the Bedfordshire Schools Trust.

As part of the transition to BEST, we are transitioning to new email addresses under the BEST Academies domain. Here are the new email addresses for the Castle Newnham Offices: Primary Office - Reception to Year 6: cnprimary@bestacademies.org.uk Secondary Office - Year 7 to Year 11: cnsecondary@bestacademies.org.uk We will be forwarding all emails sent to our old addresses to the new ones for a limited time. However, we encourage you to begin using the new addresses as soon as possible. As part of our transition to the new IT systems, you may experience some challenges in getting a quick response (including ParentMail and other platforms).
As the summer holidays draw to a close, we look forward to welcoming pupils back to school next week. Please see arrangements for the return to school below
