About

Our aim is to bring out the best in every pupil that attends Thriplow Church of England Primary School at Thriplow Primary School our vision is to demonstrate God's love by clothing ourselves with kindness and shining our light before others .

Every child is encouraged to strive for academic excellence and to make a difference in their own lives, in their families and in the communities we serve. Our Thriplow School values link into our school vision and are woven into everything we do within our school community. Our values are biblically-based and explored in depth with the children. ...

I, your Lord and Teacher, have just washed your feet. You, then, should wash one another's feet. I have set an example for you, so that you will do just what I have done for you. Never let loyalty and kindness leave you! Tie them around your neck as a reminder. Write them deep within your heart.

Then you will find favor with both God and people, and you will earn a good reputation. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.

2 governors are linked to a profile (all confirmed).
