We are very pleased to welcome you to our school. St Thomas’ is a small one form entry Church of England primary school. We are located in North Kensington just off the Portobello Road. We serve a wonderfully diverse community. In January 2009 we moved into our brand new school building, which we are very proud of.
At St Thomas’ we believe that a high quality education within a Christian context is the best start a child can have in their school life. We welcome children from all faiths and backgrounds and work in partnership with parents and the Church to build a sense of belonging to our community.

- My son loves the school and that is down to all the staff making him feel so welcome and safe. Since starting nursery he has developed so well and is learning something new everyday!
- Growth mindset. Love that you encourage the kids to learn from their mistakes. Valuing play, not too much homework, teaching tolerance and thinking about diversifying curriculum, valuing the arts.
- The ambition in the children’s learning.
- Class teachers are so attentive and supportive of my daughter and have always given us great support in how we can further develop her learning
- Very attractive environment at St Thomas': respectful, well organised comparing to others schools
- They are so supportive as a school and I feel very confident that they do their utmost for the children to be the best they can.
- There are many positive things but what I really appreciate and find outstanding is a fantastic staff welcoming children and parents every morning, even heavy rain doesn’t stop that.
