"Mixed Feelings"

Our experience has been mixed, with some great teachers and aspects of the school, but also some concerns about the handling of pupil absence and the sometimes lack of communication from the school office. The Ramadan Iftar event was a great initiative, but we've seen some inconsistencies in the application of school policies.

"Fantastic Experience for our Child"

We had a great experience at Sir John Thursby, with our child really enjoying their time in Year 7 and 8. The mock interview day was a highlight for them, and they've benefited greatly from the arts award program. We were impressed with the school's commitment to SEND support and the sense of inclusivity.
