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.
Learning, fun and achievement for all
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, our curriculum helps every child belong, achieve and thrive. Through a broad, ambitious and carefully sequenced curriculum, pupils learn about themselves, their community, Kent, the wider UK and the world beyond. We want every child to develop the knowledge, confidence and responsibility to become a thoughtful Global Citizen.
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.
