Online Open Day Video
Dear Parents and Carers,
Unfortunately, prospective parents and pupils cannot visit us during the current situation, but we would still like to show you around our wonderful schools. So take a look at our Open Day Video below.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions or queries.
Welcome to the New York Primary School Website…
We are very proud of our school. We operate as a big ‘family’, one where each child is important, and where they feel truly cared for, secure and safe. We set high expectations for our pupils and standards of behaviour are high. Support is always available and we are constantly striving to raise academic standards.
As part of this successful team, you, as parents, have a key role to play in your child’s education. Your child will sometimes have work to do at home. Your support in this matter is vital. We are always prepared to discuss this, or any other matter, with you and operate an ‘open door’ policy for all parents and carers.
New York Primary School is part of the Horncastle Education Trust along with Frithville, which is another small rural school, just five miles away and both of these schools are part of the ‘Small Aspiring Schools’ Collaboration, which includes: Gipsey Bridge Academy, Spilsby Primary School, Bucknall Primary School, Eresby Special School, Kirkby on Bain Church of England Primary School and Mareham le Fen Church of England Primary School.
Paul Bargh – Executive Headteacher
