Thringstone Primary School

Charnwood and Coalville Primary Partnership (CCPP)

At Thringstone Primary School, we believe the best schools learn from one another.

We are proud members of the Charnwood and Coalville Primary Partnership (CCPP), a collaborative network of 13 primary schools working across North West Leicestershire. Together, we share expertise, strengthen teaching, develop leadership and create wider opportunities that benefit every child.

While every school retains its own identity and governance, the partnership enables us to work collectively where collaboration adds the greatest value.

A Partnership Built on Collaboration

The partnership exists to improve education through:

  • sharing excellent practice between schools
  • developing staff and future leaders
  • providing professional support and constructive challenge
  • strengthening curriculum design and teaching
  • improving consistency through moderation and quality assurance
  • making effective use of expertise and shared resources
  • creating wider opportunities for children.

This collaborative approach helps ensure that every member school continues to reflect, improve and innovate.

Continuous School Improvement

Collaboration is embedded within our school improvement work.

Through the partnership we engage in:

  • Headteacher, Deputy Headteacher and leadership networks
  • peer review and quality assurance
  • curriculum development
  • moderation of assessment
  • professional development
  • leadership coaching
  • SEND and EYFS networks
  • sharing evidence-informed practice.

Working alongside colleagues from other schools allows us to celebrate strengths, identify priorities and continually improve the quality of education we provide.

Our CPCT Locality Group

Within the wider CCPP, Thringstone Primary School works most closely with four neighbouring schools through The Collaborative Partnership Charitable Trust (CPCT) locality group.

This close partnership enables regular collaboration between staff and provides children with opportunities to learn, perform, compete and work alongside children from neighbouring schools.

Throughout their time at Thringstone, children benefit from collaborative events including:

  • EYFS Teddy Bears' Picnic
  • Year 1 Yew Tree Trail
  • Year 2 STEM Day
  • Year 3 Vocal Ease Concert
  • Year 4 Life Skills Day
  • Year 5 Religious Education Day
  • Year 6 Pre-Transition Team Building Day

These experiences broaden children's horizons, build confidence and help prepare them for the next stage of their education.

Investing in Our Staff

The best schools never stop learning.

Being part of the CCPP gives our staff access to extensive professional learning opportunities, specialist networks and collaborative projects beyond our own school.

This includes:

  • subject leadership networks
  • SEND and EYFS specialist support
  • safeguarding collaboration
  • Educational Psychology input
  • Early Career Teacher development
  • Reading and curriculum projects
  • joint professional development.

By learning alongside colleagues from across the partnership, our staff continue to develop their expertise and bring the very best practice back into our classrooms.

Why It Matters

Membership of the Charnwood and Coalville Primary Partnership means our children benefit from the collective expertise of a much wider family of schools. It strengthens teaching, develops staff, enhances our curriculum and creates opportunities that would be difficult for any school to provide alone.

By working together, we continue to learn, improve and ensure every child at Thringstone receives the very best education.
