About Truro High School for Girls

Truro High School is an award-winning independent girls’ school with around 400 pupils from the ages of 3-18, serving the local community in Truro, Cornwall, and well beyond. It takes pupils on a day, boarding or flexi-boarding basis, and runs a prep School, senior school and sixth form all on the same site.

Values and vision

Truro High School strives to provide a personalised and happy all-round education that enables every girl to achieve her life and career aspirations. It aims to achieve this by offering outstanding teaching and pastoral care. It encourages girls both to grasp opportunities and to aim high, and to care for others in the community.

The school maintains a strong belief in the value of single-sex education, believing that they give girls the opportunity to take the lead in fields which are often male-dominated - giving as an example its thriving engineering programme.
