About Teignmouth Community School
Teignmouth Community School was formed in March 2011 with the federation of Teignmouth Community College, an 11‐18 mixed comprehensive school and Inverteign Primary and Nursery School. The two schools became converter academies at the same time and have operated as an All Through, 2‐18, school but with a secondary phase at the Exeter Road site and a primary at Mill Lane on the other side of town.
Prior to 2011 the secondary school has a long history as being the only provider of state secondary education in the town. Teignmouth Community College was formed in 1979 as a Local Authority, comprehensive school with the merger of Teignmouth Grammar School and Teignmouth High School. Both schools occupied the Winterbourne House site, contiguous but separate.
The school has always had a close connection and identity with Teignmouth and its community. This beautiful seaside town (popn approx. 15,000) retains its identity as a working port, with a state of the art commercial dock and still thriving fishing fleet. The school is the major employer in the town and many of the residents have a connection, either as staff, former students, parents or all three.
Teignmouth has a complete range of social groupings ranging from affluent owner occupier housing areas and some areas of predominantly social housing. The intake of this comprehensive school reflects this mixture and the school’s ethos of achievement for all and its wide curriculum and aspirational drive for success stems from the needs of our diverse community of students. The secondary school has a consistent record of Good Ofsted judgements, with the latest, March 2015, praising the breadth of our curriculum and its success in achieving the best outcomes for all our students; we were also proud to find out CPD described as ‘inspirational’. The strength of the partnership between our two schools has also led to the first Good judgment in the history of our primary phase with a second more recent inspection confirming its status as ‘Good’.
