Awards

Newfield is pleased to announce that it has been awarded the UNICEF Rights Respecting Schools, Level 1 Accreditation. UNICEF created the Rights Respecting Schools accreditation scheme to acknowledge schools that are committed to putting the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child at the centre of the school ethos.

At Newfield, we embed the convention into school life to enhance every child’s well-being, nurture their talents, and help them reach their full potential as rights-respecting citizens. Everyone—staff and pupils alike—promotes children’s rights, while pupils are also expected to take their responsibilities seriously.

Newfield is now working towards UNICEF Rights Respecting School Gold Level accreditation to demonstrate the school’s commitment to the rights of children.

We have also received the Music Mark School Award for 2024–25. This recognition reflects our commitment to providing high-quality music education and supporting access to musical opportunities for all pupils.

Newfield Park Primary Academy has been recognised by Historic England with the Heritage Schools Award. This award acknowledges our work in helping pupils develop an understanding of their local heritage and its place within the wider national context.
