It was founded as Maidenhead High School in 1905 by its first Headmistress Miss Burns, moved to The Castle Hill Centre (then called The Elms) in 1907 and by 1958 had moved to Farm Road, where it still stands today. The school was renamed Newlands School in 1973 when it converted to comprehensive schooling. In September 1999 the school became a community school and was renamed to Newlands Girls' School. In 2002 the school achieved the status of a Technology College and the Sportsmark Award. In 2004 it was then awarded the Artsmark Award. Newlands is home to a VI form.
