A warm welcome to families and friends from Thursby Primary School.

We are a happy, friendly and thriving school set in the beautiful village of Thursby on the outskirts of Carlisle.  

Our children are an asset to our school and the community. We have a dedicated and highly skilled team of staff, who value every child. We offer a safe and caring environment, where we value and develop the whole child. Every child matters and every child is treated individually and is supported along their learning journey.

Our enriched curriculum provides children with opportunities to develop vital skills both inside and outside of the classroom. Our children display excellent behaviour and positive attitudes towards their learning. They take pride in being part of the Thursby Primary School family. 

Our children benefit from our vast school grounds that provide many opportunities to learn beyond the classroom as well as our well resourced and stimulating learning environment in school. 

We ensure that children develop as good citizens and we teach them important values that are based around our school core values of: Respect, Responsibility, Resilience, Teamwork and Positivity. 

Our children are very well educated by our skilled and talented staff team, who are always available to parents and work together for successful achievements and positive outcomes for all our children.  

Our families are a great asset to Thursby Primary School, they actively engage with school life and we have a very well established and dedicated PFA who work in collaboration with school to fundraise and provide further enrichment to the children of Thursby Primary School. 

Please explore our school website where you will find more information about school life as well as celebrations and achievements of our children. If you would like any further information then please do not hesitate to get in touch by calling our school office on 01228 711180 or via email at admin@thursby.cumbria.sch.uk and we will be happy to help. 

For any future or prospective parents who are thinking about joining our Thursby family, we recognise the importance of you choosing the right school for your child and we are very happy to provide individual tours of school so you can 'see us in action'. We are here to support you in any way we can.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our school website and we look forward to welcoming you into our wonderful school in the future.
