Thurstonland Endowed Voluntary Controlled First School

Thurstonland Endowed Voluntary Controlled First School is a small, mixed primary school located in the village of Thurstonland, Huddersfield. With a current enrolment of 61 pupils and a capacity of 72, the school prides itself on fostering strong relationships between staff, students, and families. The ethos centres on creating a nurturing environment that supports each child's potential, underpinned by high expectations for attendance, achievement, and behaviour.

As part of the Green Hills First Federation, which includes Denby and Farnley Tyas schools, Thurstonland collaborates closely with its partner institutions to enhance educational offerings. The curriculum is designed to provide a well-rounded education, covering subjects such as English, maths, science, and the arts, while also incorporating community links that enrich the learning experience.

The school actively engages with local community groups and encourages parental involvement through initiatives like the PTA and school council. This commitment to community and collaboration ensures that pupils receive comprehensive support, preparing them for their transition to Kirkburton Middle School and beyond.
