Who are we?
We are a small, friendly, rural primary school. We have four mixed age classes with 97 children on role. There are four full time teachers, one part time teacher and four full time teaching assistants and one part time assistant.
Where will you find us?
We're located in the peaceful village of Thurlstone which is set in the picturesque foothills of the Pennines - within half an hour's drive of Sheffield, Wakefield, Barnsley and a stone's throw away from Holmfirth and 'Summerwine' country.
