Welcome from the HeadThank you for your interest in Tewkesbury School. We are very proud of our school and encourage you to come and meet us and judge for yourself.
All of our students are encouraged to aim for excellence and to fulfil their individual potential – academically, socially and personally. We want them to become successful, confident and caring adults who will be able to play an active part in society where adaptability, enterprise and consideration for others are increasingly important.
We expect our students to have high aspirations; their academic progress and examination success are ensured by top quality teaching, and traditional values of self-discipline, politeness, responsibility and sensitivity to the needs of others underpin the school ethos. We take great pride in the warm personal relationships which exist and the involvement of all students in some form of community or charitable service.
We are a Technology and Modern Foreign Language Specialist School which has enabled us to enhance our curriculum facilities. We are also proud to have gained the prestigious Healthy Schools, Sportsmark and Artsmark Gold Awards for our excellent work in these areas. Extensive links are enjoyed with partner schools as well as local community and business organisations. We particularly value the tremendous support of parents, recognising their key role in the learning process.
Since September 2009 we have been in partnership with two local schools and Gloucestershire College running the
Launchpad Centre which provides vocational education and training for the people of Tewkesbury. Please contact
Launchpad should you require further information.
I hope the information provided on this website is useful. If you wish to visit and find out more about our School, please contact the Main Office.
Yours sincerely
