Welcome toSir John Thursby
Community College

A warm welcome to Sir John Thursby from myself, the Staff, Students and Governors. We are very proud of our successful, friendly, supportive and inclusive school. I am delighted that you are considering us as you make the important decision about schooling for your child.

I am incredibly privileged to be leading our fantastic school. We are a successful, popular and vibrant learning community and we have been graded as “good” by OfSTED in all areas over the past three inspections. We are committed to an exciting curriculum, great teaching and the highest standards of support, guidance and pastoral care. We believe that great qualifications change lives and we offer an ambitious and varied school experience to all our students. We are also a school seated in our community and we are open to all.
