As a fully inclusive, co-educational school, we are proud to celebrate our students’ excellent all-round achievements, and the enormous value we add to their learning, from Nursery to GCSE.
We challenge our pupils to outperform, whatever their ability. We seek out individual talents and actively encourage the best in everyone. At Thorpe Hall School, all students are motivated to enjoy a myriad of new and exciting opportunities and experiences. We pride ourselves on the individual attention we offer every child, whatever their age and whatever their needs.
Our mission is clear, our promise secure, and our commitment is genuine and unwavering. We are a school that listens, and every child’s voice is heard. Our open-door approach helps foster a refreshingly honest, active and forward-thinking school community.
This website will give you a first glimpse of the Thorpe Hall adventure, but the School is best experienced in person. You are most welcome to visit us for a tour of our School and a chat with our team.
We look forward to meeting your family.

A huge congratulations to Dahlia in Year 11, who represented Essex this July at the English Schools Track & Field Championships in Birmingham! 🏅
This was her very first time competing with the Essex team, and she placed 5th in the country, an absolutely incredible achievement!
Not only did Dahlia do Essex proud, but she also represented Thorpe Hall School brilliantly. We are so impressed with her outstanding performance, as well as her fantastic attitude and confidence when joining a team of new faces.
Well done, Dahlia, we are so proud of you!

Welcome back to the new academic year, parents and students! 🎉
We’re thrilled to welcome nine new staff members and over 100 new students. This year, we have three new prep school classes (to cope with demand) and, yet again, another full Year 7 intake as well as new programmes starting from Reception to Year 10.
Improvements over the summer include upgrades to heating, lighting and facilities, along with the replacement of windows and the construction of three new classrooms. Additionally, we are planning a car park extension and have completed a full tree survey.
Congratulations to last year’s Year 11 for their impressive GCSE results, available to view on our website. Thorpe Hall School is thriving, and we look forward to a fantastic year ahead!
