Truro High School for Girls

Located in the heart of Cornwall’s cathedral city and close to the beaches, Truro High School provides girls with a happy, healthy and confident start in life.     Truro High is Cornwall’s leading independent day and boarding school for girls aged 3 to 18. Rated in the top 20 of the best girls’ day and boarding schools in the country (www.best-schools.co.uk), Truro High also has the most reasonable fees in the top fifty list – offering real value for money.  

Outstanding GCSE and A Level results
Truro High regularly tops the A level and GCSE league tables in Cornwall and has just received an outstanding inspection report (ISI October 2008). Small class sizes, individual attention and a warm, friendly atmosphere are seen as key to a pupil’s overall development.    

Boarding at Truro High
The school has just opened a new state-of-the-art boarding house with en-suite facilities in every room. In addition to taking full and weekly boarders, it also operates a flexi boarding system. Our boarding facilities and pastoral care are outstanding (source: ISI October 2008) and we pride ourselves on providing a home away from home.    

Scholarships
Academic, sports, art and music scholarships are awarded on entry to Year 7 and Year 12. Bursaries are means-tested and are available to girls who have been offered a place in the senior school.  

 At Truro High girls have fun, learn a great deal, are advised expertly and, most important of all, they are well prepared for life.     Individual Taster Days available throughout the year.
