Senior School

“We want our girls to be bold and ambitious; to not only have big dreams, but have the skills, resilience and tenacity to achieve them.”

Visitors are always struck by the confidence and drive of our girls and, walking through our corridors, will quickly find that Truro High School is a hive of purposeful activity, brimming with ambitious students.

Taking the next step up to Senior School is an exciting moment for students offering them the opportunity to begin exploring their talents, finding their passion and making their future a reality.

Whilst aiming for, and achieving, the highest standards of academic success are very important, we place the happiness of our students at the heart of the curriculum, preparing the girls for the future and ensuring they flourish in every way.

We encourage our students to become critical thinkers; independent learners who are intellectually curious and who question what they are being told. In an ever-changing world, they will need these skills to adapt and thrive.

We want our girls to be bold and ambitious; to not only have big dreams, but have the skills, resilience and tenacity to achieve them. With everything from enterprise projects and lifeguard training to Oxbridge preparations and bespoke programmes for aspiring medics, lawyers and engineers, our curriculum brims with exciting opportunities to make this possible.

It is these skills, along with tremendous academic results, that empower our girls with the confidence and resilience they will need to tackle whatever challenges may come their way.
