Tonbridge School

Description: Tonbridge is one of the leading boys‘ boarding schools in the country and highly respected internationally. Tonbridge aims to provide a caring and enlightened environment in which the talents of each individual flourish. Tonbridge encourages boys to be creative, tolerant and strive for academic, sporting and cultural excellence. Respect for tradition and openness to innovation are valued.
A well-established house system at the heart of the school fosters a strong sense of belonging. Tonbridge wants boys to enjoy their time there, but also to be made aware of their social and moral responsibilities. Tonbridgians should enter into the adult world with the knowledge and self-belief to fulfill their own potential and, in many cases, to become leaders in their chosen field. Equally, Tonbridge hopes to foster a life-long empathy for the needs and views of others: in the words of the great novelist and Old Tonbridgian, E.M. Forster: “Only Connect”.
