Welcome to Turves Green
Mr J.Till | Headteacher
At Turves Green Boys’ School we are focussed on every individual reaching their full potential, with a no excuses culture. Accessing a course at a top university, a highly sought-after apprenticeship or entering employment with training is the norm for our pupils.
Whilst progressive in much of what we do we are very traditional with regards to discipline, manners and respect. Our expectations are high and this will always be the case. We know from experience that setting the bar high pushes everyone in the school community to achieve great things; this is embodied through our motto, Striving for Excellence, that permeates everything that we do.
We also recognise that academic success alone is not the only aim of our work. Developing qualities and values that will allow your child to succeed in future endeavours is an equally important outcome. Opportunities outside the taught curriculum are plentiful and we encourage all to fully embrace everything the school has to offer.
Mr T Walker | Head of School
As Head of School, I am proud to have played a key role in our journey to date, ensuring that Turves Green Boys' School is 'a school transformed' (Ofsted 2024). At Turves Green Boys' School, we are always Striving for Excellence. This means that we do not rest on our laurels and we are continuing to push ourselves, as staff and pupils, to continue to achieve great things.
Our pupils understand that we have high expectations of how they conduct themselves and this has been an essential ingredient in our success to date. Academic achievement through our strong curriculum is also crucial to opening doors for our pupils in their chosen career path; alongside this, we provide enriching experiences to all pupils to ensure that they become confident, successful and resilient individuals who embody our Turves Values and become difference makers in the future.
