Thakeham Primary School

Service

Thakeham is a small school, providing big opportunities for great achievements! We are a unique, friendly school committed to providing a safe, caring and happy learning environment. All children are valued, they have positive attitudes and are motivated to learn, be creative and have fun along the way.

What we do:

The children and adults in our learning community agree that we want our school to be one where children and learning are at the heart of everything we do.
We strive for a quality and effective home/ school partnership. The ongoing dialogue between children, parents/carers and school staff helps to ensure that children are well supported and their needs are met.
Staff are well trained to support children with a range of Special Educational Needs including: Speech, Language and Communication; Autism and Learning Difficulties . We are proud to have achieved the Autism Aware Award in 2015.
We recognise the importance of early intervention to identify special needs. We have strong and supportive links with outside professionals including: Speech Therapists, Physiotherapists and Learning and Behaviour Advisory and Social Communication Teams.
We want all of our children to be happy, inspired and resilient individuals, with a love of learning and of life, and a strong sense of responsibility, both within our local community and the wider world.
