Welcome Message 

On behalf of the children, staff and governors of the High Peak Federation I would like to welcome you to our website. 

The Federation is made up of both Newtown and Thornsett Primary Schools, both situated in New Mills.

In the High Peak Federation all staff are dedicated to providing a stimulating and exciting environment where everyone feels valued and safe. Creativity and ideas can flourish and children can maximise their progress. By providing a varied and creative curriculum, which engages our children, and by promoting excellent behaviour, we aim to enthuse in all our children a desire to learn, a caring nature and a respect for one other.

Our Vision:

WE ARE A CARING, CAN-DO FEDERATION.

WE CREATE INNOVATIVE, EXCITING AND FUN LEARNING EXPERIENCES.

WE BELIEVE THAT OUR CHILDREN CAN ACHIEVE THEIR FULL POTENTIAL THOUGH BEING ADVENTUROUS AND BRAVE.

WE BELIEVE THIS GIVES OUR CHILDREN THE SKILLS TO THRIVE AND BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE.

We hope you enjoy our website and are encouraged to visit us.
