Welcome


Welcome to Twynham School, a truly inclusive community dedicated to unlocking the unlimited potential of every child. Here, we value people above all else, creating an environment where every student can thrive and succeed. Our long-standing tradition of success is built on two essential pillars: high-quality teaching and learning, and the high-quality relationships between students and staff.

As the leader of this remarkable school, I am incredibly honoured to be part of such a warm and supportive community. At Twynham, we care deeply about each individual, ensuring that every student feels valued and included. While academic excellence is important, and our students consistently achieve outstanding results, we believe education extends far beyond the classroom. We encourage our students to show ambition and explore their passions in all areas of life.

The way we do things at Twynham is important to us and is centred on strong relationships, independence, and fun. This approach allows our students to flourish in an environment that prioritises learning while celebrating personal growth and enjoyment.

Our students have access to a vast array of opportunities beyond the curriculum. The arts, including music, dance, and drama, are the heart and soul of our school. Sports  and the Duke of Edinburgh scheme offer competitive and adventurous experiences, including travel to Europe, America and beyond. We set high standards and expect respect and hard work, but we also encourage our students to embrace every opportunity and have a great deal of fun along the way.

We are incredibly fortunate to have a team of exceptional teachers who are passionate about their subjects and dedicated to understanding how young people learn. Their enthusiasm and expertise enable our students to achieve at the highest levels. In addition, our extensive support network helps students gain access to top universities, specialist colleges for the arts, and high-quality apprenticeships and places of work. Whatever your passion, we will encourage and support you to become the very best you can be.

Twynham School is a unique place, and no website can fully capture its spirit. To truly understand what makes our school special, I invite you to visit us and meet the people who make Twynham such an extraordinary place.

I look forward to meeting you.

Miss Kate Ball

Head of School
