Newbury Manor School
Frome, Somerset, South West · BA11 3RG
With just 65 pupils on its roll, Newbury Manor School is a notably small independent in Frome, Somerset. Its scale places it among the more intimate schools in the county, where individual attention is a natural consequence of low pupil numbers rather than a marketing promise. The school is co-educational, non-denominational and takes pupils from the age of 11. Families drawn to a close-knit environment, rather than a large institution, are likely to find it suits their priorities. It is led by headteacher Mr Paul Gorham and inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.
