Newport Primary School is situated near the town centre of Middlesbrough and serves a multi-cultural community. Our school was built in 1978 as a single storey building. The nursery was added in 1984. The layout of the building is semi-open plan with both open and enclosed teaching areas.
It currently has a Nursery, Two Reception classrooms, 4 Key Stage One classrooms, 8 Key Stage Two classrooms, a Head Teacher and Deputy Head Teacher room, School Business Manager and DSL office, a main school office, a staff room and a multi-functional hall. We also have a learning support room. There is a nurture room, which is also used as an outdoor classroom.
The school grounds have a large playing field in addition to hard surfaced play areas. In 2021 we were also able to acquire the land which had previously been a disused community all-weather pitch. This land is part hard surfaced and part woodland and had a Trim Trail added in 2024. The school has close links with the Newport Hub and sports hall, situated next door.
