Truro School
Truro School lies in the heart of Cornwall - with 300 miles of coastline, beaches for surfing, moors for walking, Tate Modern at St Ives and a thriving social scene.
“There are people to talk to whenever I need somebody and there is enough time to work and play.”
The School offers a happy and well-ordered atmosphere in order to ensure the best support for pupils against the pressures they will face and to help them cultivate the self-confidence so crucial in adolescent development.
High quality teaching helps each pupil realise their academic potential so that they take the best possible results into a qualification-conscious world. Achieving 41% A+/A at A Level and 59% A+/A at GSCE, the academic rigour is balanced by an environment where pupils are encouraged to acquire skills, confidence and leadership qualities through participating in a range of cultural and physical activities and taking on a variety of responsibilities.
