At TTA, we pride ourselves on finding the balance of being an academically rigorous school in a nurturing and inclusive environment. We base a lot of our philosophy on the book ‘Drive’, by Daniel Pink in our aim to equip students and staff with the tools for internal motivation. We want to foster students’ love of learning and doing the right thing - not for external reward, but because it is the right thing to do. Students walk into their GCSEs and A-levels smiling, having just completed our famous ‘TTA Chant’ and excited to show off their knowledge and skills. In any classroom, the teacher can say “Mistakes” and the students will chant back: “Learn from them.” Students are reminded that we all make mistakes and the important thing is what we learn from these. We have an incredible balance of engrossed classrooms, outstanding results, and a kind, inclusive environment in which students feel supported in all that they do.

Our 2024 GCSE results marked another significant step forward in the achievement of our students. Our 2024 results, as well as our Progress 8 scores of +1.03 in 2022, +0.9 in 2023, (2024 Progress 8 scores will be published in the next two weeks) put us consistently in the top 1-2% od schools nationally and build on our journey of improvement with +0.60 in 2019, +0.41 in 2018 and +0.34 in 2017 (jumping from -0.45 in 2016).  We are particularly pleased that this transformation was based on strong performance in the core subjects, such as English and Maths.  We are determined to continue this positive trajectory in the years ahead.
