About Trumpington Community College
“Trumpington Community College was built in 2015 on the south side of Cambridge, and the new school building provides a great environment for both working and learning. The school is growing and admitted 150 new pupils in Year 7 for the first time in September 2023. This growth will provide excellent future career progression opportunities.
Following the Ofsted inspection in November 2023, Trumpington Community College is now a ‘Good’ school. Excitingly, two areas of the school were judged to be ‘Outstanding’ – Quality of Education, and Leadership and Management.
“Pupils know that staff at the school have unashamedly high ambition for them. They appreciate the hard work teachers put into designing engaging and challenging lessons. Pupils respond by working hard.” “High-quality training supports teachers to deliver the curriculum’s aspirational aims.” “Staff are hugely proud to work in the school. They feel cared for, engaged with and valued.”
One parent comment, reflective of many, was: “The statistics show the school is clearly achieving exceptional academic things with all its students. But it is that it manages this in a joyful, safe and loving way that I find so deeply impressive. I love going there and so do my children.”
We are unashamedly ambitious for every child, no matter what their background, prior attainment or needs. We believe that ‘Knowledge Is Power’ – our most important purpose is to teach young people things they would not learn outside school which empower them. We also believe in ‘Education with Character’ – we want young people to look back on a schooling that has inspired and challenged them, given them wide opportunities and prepared them for the ups and downs of life.
We have high expectations and standards, and we teach through explicit/direct instruction (using the Rosenshine Principles) and utilising TLAC 3.0 techniques. In this way, we achieve strong GCSE outcomes, excellent student conduct and a feeling of community throughout the College.”
