Alasdair Kennedy, Trinity’s Headmaster
The success we are aiming for is not just the excellence that our students achieve; it is reflected in the kind of people they become. Our ambition is that Trinity boys and girls grow into the very best versions of themselves, people who choose to make a positive difference in the world.
We believe that great outcomes are achieved in a culture of strong values. That is why we are proud to have established a community of generosity and kindness, where every student is known and cared for as an individual. In this nurturing environment, the curiosity and ambition of each young person can be fully explored and expressed. This, in turn, opens doors to the world’s best universities, colleges and careers.
We want our students to leave Trinity without any sense of entitlement, but with a humility that recognises there is always more to learn. We intentionally welcome students from diverse socio-economic and cultural backgrounds, equipping them with the skills and responsibility to care for others and the world around them.
The recent Independent Schools Inspectorate report recognised our inclusive and collaborative culture, praising the strength of relationships within our school community and our commitment to pastoral care, academic excellence and opportunity. It affirmed what we already know: that young people thrive when they are known, challenged and supported in equal measure.
We are now entering an exciting new chapter in Trinity’s story. From 2027, we will be extending our co-educational provision, welcoming girls into Year 6 and Year 7 for the first time. This carefully planned move builds on the success of our co-educational Sixth Form and reflects our longstanding commitment to a diverse and forward-thinking learning environment. We believe this development will benefit all our students, bringing broader perspectives and even richer opportunities for collaboration, growth and learning.
Whilst at Trinity, we want every student to love being part of our community, and to thrive on the opportunities to learn and join in. When they leave, we hope they will have made these values their own.
I would very much like to welcome you to the school so you can feel for yourself the warm, purposeful atmosphere and experience the true spirit of Trinity.
