Welcome from the Head Teacher

Welcome to Thornton Grove Academy!

I am truly delighted to be leading our school into this exciting new chapter. At Thornton Grove Academy, every child is valued, celebrated and supported as the unique individual they are.

As Head Teacher, it gives me great pleasure to extend a heartfelt welcome to our pupils, parents and the wider community.

Our academy is more than just a place of learning – it is a close-knit family where children feel safe, included and known by name. We take pride in fostering a strong sense of belonging, where friendships grow and every voice matters.

One of the most special qualities of Thornton Grove is the warm and welcoming atmosphere you encounter the moment you walk through our doors. From cheerful greetings in the morning to caring support throughout the day, we work hard to make sure everyone feels respected and valued. Our dedicated staff are passionate about creating a nurturing and inspiring environment, enabling every child to thrive and achieve their best.

We believe that education is most powerful when we work in partnership. Parents, carers and the wider community play a vital role in supporting our children’s journey. Together, we can instil a lifelong love of learning and help each child grow into a confident, curious and well-rounded individual.

At Thornton Grove Academy, we are committed to providing a school where children are happy, safe and inspired to dream big. With the dedication of our talented staff, the support of our families, and the strength of our community, I am confident that we will continue to make a lasting difference in the lives of our pupils.

Once again, welcome to Thornton Grove Academy. I look forward to working with you all as we nurture and empower the next generation of learners and leaders.
