Our School Values
Welcome to Sixth Form
A welcome from
Head of Sixth Form
We have been pioneers in providing outstanding girls’ education for over 100 years. Our track record speaks for itself, with the majority of students obtaining places at university or securing higher level degree apprenticeships. However, we are more than just an academic provider, student wellbeing and female empowerment is at the heart of what we do.
You will be fully supported in all your endeavours and encouraged to fulfil your potential. We offer a diverse Sixth Form experience with opportunities to travel, lead, attend conferences, participate in the local community, whilst also making new friends over a coffee in the café. We are very proud of our girls and what they achieve here. They not only succeed academically, they also develop confidence, independence, resilience, a strong social conscience and a can do mentality. So join us at TGGS and dare to accomplish something special. We look forward to meeting you very soon.

Our Curriculum
Our curriculum intent is to realise our vision to equip students for a future in which they have the academic qualifications, character skills and high self-esteem to make decisions that lead to long, happy and content lives.
As an Academy, we focus on the individual student. We want them to achieve the best possible academic outcomes, but in preparing them for their next steps we know that is not enough; they need to develop their character skills and be able to articulate them as they progress through their career.
Testimonials
Just to say a huge thank you to Mr Magee, Mrs Grigg and Ms Burns for being so kind in taking our daughters on the geography field trip. Both girls said they thoroughly enjoyed themselves, especially the hike in the Lake District, which they found beautiful and awe inspiring. As well as the obvious academic benefits, I'm sure they have gained a lot in terms of independence and personal responsibility. March 2023
Geography Field TripDear Ms Saunders, A quick note to thank you and the other teachers for taking my daughter on such a brilliant school trip! She had an absolutely fantastic time and has been talking non-stop about it. We are very proud of her for taking part in the Menin Gate ceremony - thanks to whoever videoed it! We really appreciate all the time and effort it must take in organising the trip, let alone giving up your time to take them all over there. I would have thanked you in person yesterday but it was all a bit busy and I bet you couldn’t wait to get home!! Hope you have a very well deserved restful weekend. Please pass on my thanks to all the staff. Mrs H - June 2024
History Trip Thank You"Before joining Sixth Form, I had never been pushed to work at my full capacity. At TGGS, I have found that the commitment and passion of my subject teachers has been met with immense support and understanding, allowing me to reach my full potential. I feel very lucky to have been able to experience the community here; immediately after joining Sixth Form I felt at home, and I have met friends for life. TGGS has given me the skills and confidence I need to progress through my career. Joining this school was the best decision that I could have made."
Maisie Wilson (joined us from Coombeshead)My time at TGGS gave me the tools and qualities to become one of the role models I looked up to, back in Year 7. There is no doubt that within TGGS, every student is inspired, enabled and challenged to achieve their maximum potential in all fields, not just in academics. My year as Head Girl taught me to be a confident, organised, problem solver. I had the pleasure to help organise multiple fundraising events - seeing my favourite teachers in a lip sync battle for Red Nose Day has to be one of my favourite memories. Throughout my TGGS journey, I have never felt unsupported in any aspect from both the teaching and pastoral staff. I have always been encouraged to put my best foot forward and I know I can go on to excel at university and at any other challenges in my future."
Alicia Yau (Former Head Girl)I had the pleasure of sitting next to one of your year 12 students, Izzy, this morning at the Torbay Business forum as she was presenting about their scouting activities. I could not believe how articulate, confident and mature she was. It was brilliant to hear about her aspirations of being a doctor in the navy and she obviously had a career path totally planned out. She is a real credit to the school, Well done! Mrs U - November 2024
