About Thorpe Primary Academy

Thorpe Primary Academy photo

Thorpe Primary School is a wonderful, multi-cultural school where children feel safe, happy and secure, and leave well-prepared for the next phase of their education. An engaging and innovative curriculum inspires children and equips them with skills, experience and confidence to achieve their best. We strive for children to develop into successful learners and well-rounded individuals through high quality teaching and pastoral care across the school.

Our dedicated staff work incredibly hard to secure good outcomes for children. They work together to ensure the curriculum we offer is purposeful and memorable for all children as well as offering a wide range of extra-curricular activities and opportunities.

Our provision is enhanced by our good relationships with parents, Academy Committee and the wider community, all of whom we work in partnership with.

We are located within the bustling city of Peterborough and enjoy direct rail links with London. Peterborough is known for its diverse and inclusive culture which is something we celebrate throughout our school; with 28% of our pupils having English as an additional language. We are proud to serve the families of Netherton and western Peterborough.

We have high expectations for all our pupils and staff, and consider our families to be partners, recognising the vital role that they play. We want to work together as a team, to fully realise the potential of all of our children.

We benefit from an on-site internal Nursery, which is the main feeder Nursery into our school. We have recently benefited from various site work to refresh our Nursery provision, including internal and outdoor spaces.

We work closely with our four Trust schools (Jack Hunt, Longthorpe Primary, Nova Primary and Ravensthorpe Primary), as all schools are within a maximum 15-minute walking distance from each other, which allows us to work collaboratively with our peers across both primary and secondary settings. We are all proud members of Keys Academies Trust.

We benefit from wide outdoor spaces, including a luxurious school field and dedicated play areas and outdoor learning environments, including a recently refurbished outdoor EYFS and Nursery space.

We welcome new colleagues to join our dedicated team, who will bring energy, optimism and a drive to build dreams for our pupils.
