Welcome to our school
A word from the proprietors
As the Proprietors of Newbury Independent School, we believe that education is a fundamental vehicle for young people from all background and social status to achieve and become effective Citizens.
We embrace British and Christian Values and are committed to being relational, always actively seeking for ways to work with Parents, Guardians and Corporate Parents, involving Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), Police Community Support Officers (PSCO's), Social Care and other professionals. Our motto is that, even with challenging behaviours, every child can be educated. An African proverbs states that 'It takes a whole village to raise a child.'
Our school was formally opened by the Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Cllr Yvonne Mosquito, on the 20th December 2018. We want to work together with you in educating our children.'

A word from our governors
On the behalf of the governing body I would like to welcome you to Newbury School. One of our main aims as a governing body is to support the school in ensuring each child leaves Newbury having developed a love of learning, resilience, skills and confidence to excel in every aspect of their school life and beyond. In addition, we are keen to ensure that this is done in a supportive and caring environment where every child can achieve irrespective of their starting point.
We are confident that the Principal, Head Teacher and staff are committed, passionate and innovative in their approach in guiding and supporting each student to develop and as governors we are equally steadfast in fulfilling the ethos of the school.
As an active governing body, we aim to fully be involved in the school. This includes being present at a range of activities throughout the year or visiting to monitor different areas of the school life as well as investigating strategies for improvement.
We are always looking for ideas to improve the school experience and so we welcome your comments and feed
