The latest edition of the TPC newsletter can be downloaded from the 'News' page. TPC gives pupils the opportunity to influence decision making in Thanet.

Background to the Thanet 1 LCSP
We are a group of Kent Local Authority schools, pre-school settings and education services working in partnership to achieve the highest possible standards of education and care for young people in our area.
Working parties, steering groups, networked groups, learning walks and informal collaborations support Thanet 1 staff in their aim to achieve the highest possible standards of education and care for our children.
Our aims are stated within our Children & Young People's Plan which drives development activities for the year ahead. This is written under the key outcomes of Every Child Matters and is facilitated and managed by our LCSP Manager, Nedine Watson-Cutts. Members of the LCSP board, LCSP staff and Thanet 1 schools work together in an open and co-operative manner to achieve targets for the benefit of all young people. Please click here to view the THANET 1 SCHOOLS CONTACTS.
You will find numerous articles of interest on our LCSP Web pages, including:
The information on the site is regularly updated and we trust that all schools and Partnership members will become regular contributors.
