"Mixed feelings"

We've been at Thorpe for a year now and while the staff are lovely, the class sizes are a bit large. The extracurricular activities are great, though, with the Egham Brass Band and music lessons a highlight for our child.

"Wonderful school community!"

We've been at Thorpe CofE for 3 years now and I'm so grateful. The staff are warm, supportive and genuinely care about each child. My child loves the Sapphire class and the annual Summer Fair is always a highlight!

"Excellent phonics program"

Our child thrived at Thorpe, particularly with the phonics program which really helped them catch up on reading. The Headteacher, Joe Blaney, is approachable and genuinely cares about each child's progress.
