I am delighted to welcome you to Thringstone Primary School. As you browse our website, I hope that you will gain a good insight into life at our school and those who teach, work and learn here. We are one-form entry primary school situated in the village of Thringstone, located on the outskirts of Coalville. On site, we also boast a wonderful pre-school, Little Acorns, who work in collaboration with the school to ensure a smooth transition for our pupils.

At Thringstone, we welcome children, their parents and carers into a friendly, nurturing, hardworking and engaging environment, where respect for others and positive attitudes towards work and behaviour are firmly embedded.  Relationships throughout the school are fundamental to our positive ethos. We have a very skilled and supportive Governing Body, who work in close partnership with the school community to ensure that there is mutual respect and trust, as well as challenge, ambition and drive.

We are very proud of our strong partnership with the local community; local pre-schools, primary schools through the Collaborative Partnerships Charitable Trust and feeder secondary schools. Together, we ensure that the school is at the centre of the community and the children grow to understand the importance of belonging and develop a strong community spirit.

We offer a relevant and exciting, broad and balanced curriculum, where children are encouraged to be independent, deep thinkers and make informed choices about their learning. We ensure a wide range of experiences, especially through educational visits, music, sport and the performing arts. The skills of communication, maths and English are the foundation of our learning and we are extremely proud of our high standards and ambition for all, highlighted in our most recent OfSTED inspection – 2022: “Leaders have a clear, shared vision, and have a high ambition for all pupils.”

Come and see our school in action and feel the positive, caring and nuring atmosphere for yourself! Contact the school today to arrange a time to meet me and have a tour of the school.
