Castle Newnham School
Located in the heart of Bedford, Castle Newnham is an all-through school that provides a seamless educational journey for pupils in Reception to Year 11.

As Principal, I believe our school represents a unique advantage for every pupil: the ability to shape a child’s journey from their first steps in the classroom to their final steps into adulthood. We have the rare privilege of providing a seamless, unbroken thread of support, curiosity, and excellence that spans 12 years of a young person's life.
This "all-through" journey allows us to truly know every child, fostering a deep sense of belonging within a school that blends traditional values with an ambitious approach to learning. This continuity enables us to foster a "family feel" built on our CORE values: Community, Opportunity, Respect, and Excellence.
(Mrs Donna Neely-Hayes, Principal)
