Description
Newstead Wood School is a State Secondary School for kids aged 11 to 18 (Gender - Mixed )
The school opened in September 1954 as Orpington Grammar School for Girls in response to the rapid growth of Orpington and Petts Wood over the previous forty years. The first single form entry was housed temporarily at Midfield Girls’ School. The present site was acquired in 1954 and we moved in as a three form entry school on 23rd September 1957. The school has grown considerably over the past 60 years and the buildings have expanded to accommodate our growing numbers. The site now includes a purpose built Sixth Form block, a dedicated Music Block, a Technology Block and Engineering suite, Sports Hall, and, of course, the Tennis Centre.
