Headteacher’s Welcome

Welcome to our school website and thankyou for taking the time to look around. We hope that it gives you all the relevant information you should require and a flavour of what our amazing school is.

As Headteacher, I believe that a school should be a place where dreams are created and fulfilled; a place where aspiration and inspiration go hand in hand; a place where imagination and creativity are celebrated and a place where every child can succeed.

At Newby and Scalby this means that while we recognise the importance of, and aim, to ensure academic success across the curriculum to give children the firm foundations in key subjects such as Maths, English, Science etc; we also passionately believe that this is not the sole indicator of success.

We recognise that we have a role to ensure that we nurture and develop all children’s abilities and attributes to enable them to excel and to achieve the success that they are entitled to. As such, we give every child the chance to shine and to dream, whether they are a writer; mathematician, scientist, actor, artist, sportsperson, debater, or friend maker and celebrate their accomplishments.

‘Working To Learn Together’ embodies what is so special about this school and the relationships between pupils and adults is strong because every staff member believes in the potential of each child and wants the very best for them.

Newby and Scalby Primary is proud to be part of the Coast and Vale Learning Trust alongside several other schools in the local area. To find out more about the Coast and Vale Trust please visit their website.

If you would like to find out more please do get in touch to arrange a visit to come and meet our children and staff, and experience our happy learning community for yourself.

Best wishes,
Steve Owen Executive Headteacher
