“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character–that is the goal of true education.”

Martin Luther King

Thames Christian School is a co-educational private school for pupils aged 11-18.

At Thames the individual is seen first and we work hard to create a learning environment that delivers positive outcomes for each and every pupil.

Fundamental to Thames is the desire for pupils to understand their innate value and thrive in a private school setting that encourages good character, personal responsibility, and leadership skills. We equip our students with the tools to become wise, compassionate leaders, ready for life beyond school.
