Welcome!
We are SO proud of our little, warm, nurturing small school and we are SO excited that you may be thinking of sending your child here! Thank you for thinking of us.
Thakeham Primary School is a nurturing, modern and forward-thinking community. Being small, we know each pupil well. This enables us to successfully support their growth, both academically and in terms of each child’s individual personal development. We take pride in celebrating each child’s successes. Nurturing pupils is something we know we do particularly well. It is what makes us unique!
Our reputation speaks for itself; our results are consistently above the National Average; and we have a brand new 'Good' Ofsted rating. Excellence is what we are all about.
Thakeham is a special place.
