A school is an exciting place to be and every school offers a unique experience. At Thackley Primary School, we aim to provide the best possible experience for every child and for everyone who walks through our doors. While we have many goals as a school, at the heart of everything we do are three key aims that guide our vision for our pupils:
-
High Standards in Everything We Do
-
Skills for Life
-
Happy Memories
We believe in high standards for all members of our school community. Our expectations extend to academic and sporting achievements, manners, behaviour, attitudes and everything we do.
We support our children to develop Skills for Life throughout their time at Thackley. This includes fostering resilience, independence, perseverance, patience and compassion. We want our children to leave Thackley as responsible citizens, creative thinkers and kind individuals.
Our Skills for Life curriculum complements this by teaching practical and essential life skills—from tying shoelaces and basic first aid to setting a table and making a bed. It also helps children learn how to be brave, manage big emotions and nurture ambitions for the future.
Above all, we want our children to leave Thackley with Happy Memories. When children feel safe, happy and enjoy school, they learn faster and take pride in their own growth and achievements. We strive to make every child’s time at Thackley joyful and inspiring, building positive and supportive relationships along the way. Our curriculum is enriched with exciting trips, residentials and memorable experiences that children will treasure forever.
