Report
History of Highfields
Report
Highfields School was established at the close of the Second World War, at a time when primary and secondary education were being separated. Previously, primary education had been provided within Newark's Lilley & Stone High School site, but by 1945 that had been phased out and there was a need for a new primary school in the town.
Our Success
Report
Every year many of our pupils are offered scholarships to their chosen senior school in a range of disciplines including music, sport, art, academic and all rounder. We are very proud of all our leavers and celebrate their success with a special speech night and awards ceremony at the end of the year, when we invite a distinguished guest speaker to join us.
