At Tring Park School pupils are taught in small classes by well-qualified, highly experienced teachers. This ensures that every pupil is given the best possible chance to attain his or her maximum potential in a private school setting. The curriculum is designed to give pupils experience in linguistic, mathematical, scientific, technological, human and social, physical, aesthetic and creative aspects.
Lower School vocational classes take place from 8.30am to 12.05pm each weekday morning. Academic lessons take place from 1.25pm to 4.35pm each weekday afternoon.
In the Lower School pupils have the option to audition for either the Junior Dance or the Performance Foundation Juniors Course, progressing to the Middle School Dance Course or the Performance Foundation Course once they enter Middle School.
In First and Second Form, the academic element follows the requirements of the National Curriculum with the full range of subjects for Key Stage 3: English, maths, science, ICT, history, geography, religious studies, French, Spanish (offered from Second Form onwards), art and design, music and PSHE.
At Tring Park School we offer an exciting, challenging and diverse learning experience. We recognise that each pupil has their own individual strengths, talents and needs and we are dedicated to providing a supportive environment which actively helps and encourages every pupil to achieve their full potential.
We offer scholarships for the Performance Foundation Course. Music & Dance Scheme and Dance & Drama Awards are offered for the Dance Course.
