About us

Newlands Girls’ School is a truly wonderful place to work.  Our school culture and the relationships between staff and students make us very special.  From phenomenal academic results to sporting triumphs and inspirational student leadership, our school community thrives. In May 2024, Ofsted reaffirmed what we already know — that Newlands remains outstanding in every sense. In fact, our latest Inspection Report opens by describing us as ‘exceptional’ - perfectly capturing the spirit and standards of our school.

Where we are going

As a school, we are constantly striving to be better and are currently implementing Tom Sherrington's Walkthrus as well as using research from Steplab, Peps Mcrae and evidence from some of the highest performing schools in the country. We believe in a consistent approach to teaching and learning but also departmental autonomy and put evidence-based approaches at the centre of our practise. 

We have a Senior Leadership Team who positively embrace new ideas. If you are passionate about educational innovation and excited by the prospect of making a lasting impact in a school that values forward-thinking leadership, we would love to hear from you! 

Join us in shaping exceptional futures for our students.
