Welcome to Thames View Primary School
Thames View, which is part of the well-respected Howard Academy Trust (THAT), has some real strengths, namely the wonderful cohort of children, an excellent staff team and fantastic school grounds, all of which we intend to make the most of during the coming year.
Belonging here. Shaping the world.
We are a two-form entry school, and with our Nursery, educate 480 children in a friendly and caring environment.
Our Curriculum
At Thames View, every child is known, valued and supported to thrive. Our curriculum helps pupils understand themselves, their community and the wider world, so they develop as confident, curious and responsible Global Citizens.
Ethos & Values
We promote our values of respect, responsibility and resilience, throughout all we do, so that our pupils are ready to take their place in a constantly changing world.
