We know that as a parent, your time is precious, so we've put together this page to give you a quick overview of the key facts and figures, as well as links to more detailed information if you need it.
Pupil admission number and number of children
Our school currently has 288 pupils on roll, with a Pupil Admission Number (PAN) of 45. With 4 additional places, per year group, for children within our language support centre.
School structure
Our school is structured into separate year groups, from Reception to Year 6, each with its own dedicated teachers and staff. Our class sizes are small, with an average of 23 students per class, which allows us to provide personalised and focused attention to each student. With the open plan nature of our school building, we are able to work flexibly across departments, allowing children at times to work collaboratively across year groups.
Nursery provision
Honeyshute Day Nursery, situated next door to Thornbury Primary School, offers provision for 2-5 year olds to give them a flying start before they enter their formal school years. You can contact them at :enquiries@honeyshutechildcare.co.uk to find out more.
