"A Truly Exceptional School!"

We have been at Thakeham for a few years now and it has been an absolute joy. The facilities are fantastic, the staff are caring and dedicated, and the values they instil in the children are truly impressive. My child has thrived here and we can't recommend it enough.

"Wonderful School, Wonderful Community!"

We love Thakeham Primary School! The '3 Ns' - Need, Nurture and Knowledge - are really brought to life in the daily life of the school. The staff are approachable, the facilities are excellent and the sense of community is so strong. My child is happy and learning so much.

"Generally a very good experience"

We had a great experience at Thakeham Primary, but there were times when they struggled to support my child's SEN needs. The staff were generally very caring and the facilities are excellent, but sometimes the school felt a bit overwhelmed. Overall, I would still recommend it, but be aware of the potential challenges.
