Welcome

Hello everyone and welcome to the new website of Thornfield House School. We hope you find this new layout parent and child friendly, and easy to navigate. I am delighted to have been appointed Principal of Thornfield in March 2024 having been a member of staff in this wonderful school for 17 years. We pride ourselves on our caring approach with our children and ensure that every pupil feels safe, secure and happy. Our school is the only regional school providing intensive speech and language support for children aged 4-16. We have also recently welcomed a number of new classes supporting pupils with additional learning needs. The information provided on our website aims to provide you with an insight into what we do and keep you updated with important information and general school life.

Mrs L Creighton

Principal
