Welcome

Welcome to our infant school. I am incredibly proud to be the headteacher of such a happy, warm, welcoming and friendly school that is very well regarded by the local community.

Nathaniel Newton Infant school is a popular, oversubscribed school catering for children between the ages of 4-7 years in the Hartshill area of Nuneaton. The Links Daycare Centre is a private nursery on our school site catering for children between the ages of 2-4 years of age. We work closely with Links to ensure that there is a seamless transition between nursery and school. We do have many children who come from other nurseries and we are proud of our induction process for these children who are also provided with a seamless transition into school.

We are very fortunate to have a very strong team of hard working, committed and talented staff who are all here to ensure that we provide the very best learning experiences for children throughout their time with us. We are proud of the fact that we work hard to develop the whole child which results in children leaving us who are educationally as well as socially ready to embark on the next stage of their education. Our school motto is ‘Learning together to be the best we can’. This is achieved by ensuring that children receive a curriculum that is engaging, stimulating, enjoyable and challenging but above all memorable. Children have only one chance to be at infant school and as such we want them to remember this as a very special time in their lives.

Our children are absolutely delightful. They have a brilliant attitude to learning and love coming to school which means we have good attendance. They take care in their appearance and always strive to be the best that they can. During work and play they get on well and look after each other. Our parents are very supportive. They support the school fully to ensure their children are happy and achieve well. We have a strong PTA who do sterling work to provide the school with many extras that further enhance the children’s learning experiences.

Our governing body is very strong and provide excellent support and challenge to ensure the school is continually improving.

We have an extensive range of after school clubs that are very popular with children. Clubs run on a half termly basis allowing children to participate in a variety of clubs throughout the year. Clubs on offer include football, frisbee, dance, basketball, art and craft, sewing, cooking and library to name a few.

As a school we are fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff, parents and volunteers to share this commitment.

I hope you enjoy looking at our website but there is nothing like visiting us in person so please contact us to arrange a visit.
