We place a high value on developing positive relationships and partnerships with all our stakeholders.

 

Parents form a crucial part of this, and we want parents to be active partners in their children’s education. Our staff will liaise with parents on a range of areas including progress, welfare, behaviour, homework and Additional Educational Needs. 

We encourage parents to regularly talk to their children about life at School. We keep parent informed of their child’s progress and School events through regular newsletters, our website and Academic Review Days. As well as having parent governors, we have a parents’ association – the Friends of Newport High School – to further support the School’s work and share its successes.

 

From local schools to universities, we continue to build on our partnerships with other educational organisations with whom we can share resources, experiences and expertise. We already benefit from our partnerships with other schools in the Newport Post-16 Collaboration, and our links with University of Wales Newport and University of Wales Glamorgan. 

We also enjoy links with businesses, community groups, volunteer organisations and others to enrich our curriculum and extend the experiences of our learners.
