Trinity School

Overview

We are a co-educational school, situated on the south coast, overlooking the sea set in 14 acres of landscaped grounds. The School now accommodates 500 pupils, from 3-19, and our teaching staff:pupil ratio is 1:9. Our aim is to maintain numbers at this level, with a boarding community of 125 boys and girls and a boarding staff team of 18 personal tutors. We also aim to further improve facilities and resources, at a considerable rate and have committed over £6 million over the last 6 years in new buildings, including new classrooms, laboratories and boarding accommodation with en-suite bathrooms, equipment and staff.

Our boarders come from Britain, the European Community, the Eastern Bloc and continents further afield, Africa, Asia and the Americas, although overseas students never exceed 15% of the total number of students.

Over 30 after-school clubs exist, plus weekend activities and trips, post-study activities for boarders in the evenings.

Staff development continues so that every department and faculty within the School can aim to raise standards further. In addition to a wide range of A2 and AS levels, the School offers Advanced Business and Information Technology courses that are popular alternatives, to the more usual academic subjects.

Unique Points

The Christian ethos at Trinity and wide ranging opportunities provide the firm foundation and clear direction for our young people, so that they fully develop, influencing and leading in a positive, non-judgemental and fair-minded way.

We strive to be the best boarding and day school of its kind. The boarding staff work hard to generate a warm, lively, happy and friendly, family atmosphere, which prospective parents often comment on. We aim to ensure that our pastoral care is of the highest order possible, as we believe a happy student will achieve their highest potential.

We embrace ALL faiths.
