and letting imaginations fly as we aim high

Curriculum Enhancement

At Thanet we believe that education plays a key role preparing pupils for a happy and successful future. We aim to nurture and develop well-rounded individuals, ensuring that our pupils not only learn core skills across the full curriculum subjects, but also develop important ‘skills for life’ such as self-awareness, compassion, teamwork, personal organisation and leadership. 
While we have the highest of expectations for our pupils within the classroom, this is only a part of the learning experience that we offer. We believe in providing a breadth of opportunities for our pupils to allow them to discover their passions and talents and give them the best possible foundations to carry forward into the next stage of their education and future lives.
An extensive range of extra-curricular activities is provided at Thanet, both during and after school. This includes activities such as: sports, music, choirs, languages, theatre visits, museums, science and art.
We celebrate and encourage the children to take part in national events such as: World Book Day, Children in Need, Odd Sock Day and many other school-based, specially themed days where the children can dress up, create projects and models and experience a totally different school day.
Please see below for an example of what else we offer to children to support their education and develop leadership skills:
