Muskham Primary School is a small, friendly and thriving primary school set in the heart of the village of North Muskham, near Newark. We are proud to be a caring and inclusive learning community, where children develop a life long love of learning through first-hand, fun and meaningful experiences.

At Muskham, children and adults are valued for their individuality. Our curriculum promotes a positive mindset, encouraging pupils to “have a go” and view mistakes as an important part of learning. Our core Enablers – empathy, questioning, perseverance, independence, creativity and optimism – are woven throughout school life and underpin everything we do.
