"Exceptional school with a wonderful community"

We moved to Teignmouth last year and our son settled in so quickly at Teignmouth Community School. The school's values of kindness and acceptance are truly evident in the way the students treat each other and the staff are always approachable. The facilities are also excellent, with plenty of opportunities for sports and arts. We feel so lucky to have found such a great school!

"Great first year at TCS"

Our daughter had a fantastic first year at Teignmouth Community School. We were a bit worried about the transition from primary school, but the teachers were really supportive and helped her settle in quickly. We've been impressed with the school's extra-curricular activities, particularly the rocketry club, which has sparked her interest in STEM subjects.

"Some positives and negatives"

We had our children at Teignmouth Community School about 5 years ago, and while we had some great experiences, there were also some issues with communication and organization. However, the school's focus on kindness and acceptance is admirable, and our kids still talk fondly of their time there. We're not sure if things have improved since we left, but we wish the school all the best.
