NGHS is one of the country’s leading girls’ schools. 

We welcome girls from the town of Newport as well as further afield from Telford, Stafford, Shrewsbury, Market Drayton and Wolverhampton. 

With a clear emphasis on success both inside and outside the classroom, our students achieve highly and make the most of opportunities to see the world and make life-lasting friendships. Visitors are assured a warm welcome and we hope that our website gives you a flavour of our ethos and success.

In November 2022, NGHS was graded outstanding in every category of the Ofsted inspection framework. More information can be found below.

Students achieve phenomenal results at NGHS. In December 2024, we were ranked number 1 in Shropshire and number 8 in the West Midlands for student achievement by The Sunday Times Parent Power Survey. 

Outstanding Ofsted!

Ofsted visited NGHS in November 2022 to conduct a full, graded inspection. We were delighted when the inspection team concluded that NGHS is an outstanding school in every judgement. You can view the report here.

This was a view shared by Ofsted in 2019 when the school underwent a monitoring visit to consider the school's curriculum, a key feature of the inspection framework.

NGHS students, staff and governors are very proud of our outstanding school.
