The Trinity University of Asia, formerly called Trinity College of Quezon City, is the first full-fledged educational institution organized from the Episcopal Church's concordat in the Philippines and the Iglesia Filipina Independiente. It is a private, non-profit, sectarian, and church-related institution of learning founded in 1963. The University Research and Development Center (URDC) formulates and implements effective mechanisms for planning, directing, supervising, financing, monitoring, disseminating, and assessing its research and development activities. It is also geared towards establishing linkages and promoting collaborative research activities with research-based and other academic institutions. It develops a pool of faculty researchers and research specialists by providing them with a continuing program of upgrading human resource capabilities in research through effective training programs and attractive incentives. It also develops and implements guidelines that shall ensure the nurturance of a robust research culture in the University, and generates quality research outputs for utilization of the academe and the community. The University has a Guidance Center on the main university campus and offices in the Elementary and the High School Departments. Its Director has a staff composed of a Guidance Counselor, a Psychometrician, and secretaries. When necessary, the guidance personnel make referrals to the St. Luke's Medical Center psychiatrist. The main aim of the Guidance Center is to help students make use of their educational opportunities and develop their potentialities to the maximum so that they become useful members of society. It also aims to train students in self-understanding, make wise choices, and achieve satisfying adjustments. To achieve these goals, the Guidance Center offers services to both individuals and in groups. The service to groups is through group guidance activities, orientation programs, study skills and career choice enhancement, job hunting and placement, values development programs, and the like. The service to individuals is in psychological testing, counseling, individual inventory information, vocational guidance, learning assistance, and follow-up. The Guidance Counselors conduct case studies and case conferences on individual students when needed. They invite teachers and parents to these conferences to develop a better insight into the students' problems. Peer facilitators are trained to assist in the Center's programs and activities. The Psychometrician administers and interprets psychological tests. Individual testing of students is done through referrals by the Guidance Counselors. Groups of students or classes may also be given psychological tests whenever needed or as recommended by the Guidance Counselors or subject teachers. Students are invited to avail of the services the Center offers to help solve their problems or identify and develop their potentials. The Trinity University of Asia started as a one-building campus. The administrative and college units moved to its present tree-lined campus on Cathedral Heights in November 1968 upon completing the Science Building. A grant from The Netherlands government constructed it. Enrollment was high until tragedy struck on November 26, 1969, when a fire razed the original plant housing the High School and the Elementary School at 226 E. Rodriguez, Sr. Avenue. However, with the help of students, alumni, and friends, here and abroad, an L-shaped three-story building worth more than a million pesos was constructed. A gymnasium was built, funded by the United Thank Offering of the Episcopal Churchwomen in 1971. Subsequent additions to the campus skyline were the Trinity College Learning Center for Children (TLCC), which was built with funds bequeathed by Miss Mary Niven Alston, and the library building named the Wayland S. Mandell Hall, after the first chairman of the Board of Trustees. Mandell Hall was constructed and equipped with a grant from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), American schools and hospitals abroad, plus funds from the Booth Ferris Foundation, friends, and alumni. The Trinity University of Asia was launched by 160 shares of Procter and Gamble stock. It all started when Paul Matthews, who married Elsie Procter, whose grandfather founded Procter and Gamble Company, became the Episcopal Bishop of New Jersey, the USA in 1951. Both the Matthews and the Gamble families were much interested in the missionary work of the Episcopal Church. Recently completed additional buildings and facilities were the University House, the University Chapel and Prayer Garden, and the Student Center with a theater-type auditorium. Sustaining its image nationally and internationally paved the way to its university status granted on July 18, 2006, by the Commission on Higher Education. The Trinity University of Asia was also awarded Institutional Accreditation Status by The Federation of Accrediting Agencies of the Philippines (FAAP) in August 2009. By December 10 of the same year, the University was granted Autonomous Status. The Autonomous Status is one of the most distinguished awards bestowed by CHED to private schools for their enormous contribution to the growth and development of tertiary education and the Asia Pacific region. Completing the distinctions earned by the University is the ISO certification issued by Societe Generale de Surveillance (SGS) after the University successfully met the requirements of ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System Standards.

(HTU) is a private sectarian university in Puerto Princesa City in Palawan, run by the Dominican Sisters of Saint Catherine of Siena. Holy Trinity University is a dynamic center of Catholic education in Palawan, Philippines. Holy Trinity University is the pioneer institution of higher learning in Palawan, established in 1940 as the Holy Trinity College Academy. The Academy's first administrators were Rev. Mother Cruz Rich, O.P., Rev. Mother Paulina Cruz, O.P., and Rev. Mother Trinidad Acosta, O.P... The latter worked in close cooperation with the Augustinian Recollect priests under the leadership of Msgr. Leandro Nieto, ORSA, the Prefect Apostolic of Palawan.

Welcome to Trinity Montessori School! We are delighted that you have taken an interest in Trinity Montessori School and hope that we can have the opportunity to provide a unique and enjoyable educational experience for your child. The information provided on this website is intended to help you (whether you are an existing or a prospective parent) understand our program, what you can expect from us, and what we will expect from you about your child's care and needs. Early childhood education is the most important phase in a child's life, and the best results are produced when parents and teachers have common expectations and goals and make a concerted effort to further the child's educational progress. We invite you to learn more about Trinity Montessori by browsing our website and clicking the image below to watch our video. Trinity Montessori School is a private independent Montessori school located in the heart of Markham, Ontario near the intersection of 16th Avenue and Woodbine Avenue, just 2 km east of Highway 404. Since 1999, our school has nurtured strong, independent, and capable children who have gone on to excel in other educational institutions. Our curriculum is based on the developmental stage of the child from infancy through 6th grade. This carefully developed method of education uses unique hands-on materials that encourage a concrete understanding of abstract principles. In multi-age classrooms, Montessori teachers guide the natural curiosity of children to foster academic success and a lifelong love of learning. The school is a community that develops in its children self-esteem and self-discipline, independence, and respect for and cooperation with fellow individuals. Trinity Montessori School's motto is reflective of our philosophy that with proper nurturing and guidance, each of our students will blossom into a unique, strong, and beautiful individual who is capable and strongly rooted in academics. Trinity Montessori School strives to recognize and respect the uniqueness of every child and to help each child reach his or her highest potential. Our school adopts a holistic approach to education within a caring and nurturing environment, with particular emphasis on academic excellence, emotional maturity, mental and physical well-being, and moral and spiritual soundness. We aim to develop our students into persons of character and integrity, who would become respected and contributing members of society. Trinity Montessori School is a private school focused on achieving student success. The school is not intended to, nor does it, serve all students equally well. The Montessori approach offers a broad vision of education as an aid to life and aims to help children with their task of finding and developing the individual within as they grow from childhood to maturity. This approach is effective because it draws its principles from the natural development of the child and its inherent flexibility allows the method to adapt to the particular needs of the individual, regardless of the level of ability, learning style, or social maturity. A Montessori classroom is a carefully designed and prepared space that offers the children an environment in which they are free to respond to their natural drive to work and learn. The children’s innate love of learning is encouraged by giving them opportunities and resources to engage in spontaneous, meaningful activities under the guidance of a Montessori teacher. Through their work, the children develop concentration, motivation, persistence, and discipline, which qualities will help the children to succeed in future schooling and careers. Our toddler program provides a loving environment that is carefully prepared to meet the unique needs of children between the ages of 18 months to 2.5 years of age. Our classroom accommodates 15 students and has a 1:5 teacher-student ratio. The program is a natural extension from home and allows for each child to reach his or her full potential. The nurturing and secure environment fosters independence, language, and creativity. The Practical Life area is designed to fit the toddler's hand. It invites hand-eye coordination and assists with fine motor skills. It also helps promote independence and concentration. In the Sensorial area children will learn about dimensions, shapes, and colors, tactile and auditory senses through attractive and age-appropriate material. The Language material encourages conversation, builds vocabulary, and provides a sense of the world around them. Music and circle time is also important to language development. The Math area introduces number recognition through various materials. Number blocks, puzzles, sorting, and counting are all concepts taught in this area. The gross motor area is specifically designed to allow children to explore and develop coordination and balance. The child-sized gym, a sand and water table, balancing beams, balls, and other motor equipment are all important to developing their large motor skills. Trinity Montessori School moved the Elementary program into our second building at 9221 Woodbine Ave., adjacent to our main campus, in 2007. This lovely heritage-style building has been updated to ensure our students have a delightful and inspiring class space. Our elementary teaching staff guides their blossoming minds, using their expertise as either Montessori-trained teachers or as Ontario certified teachers. Most of our elementary students have been at Trinity Montessori School since their days in the Casa program. However, we do accept a student without a Montessori background and can discuss arrangements with parents.

Trinity College School (TCS) is a co-educational, independent boarding school and day school located on 100 acres of rolling countryside in picturesque Port Hope, Ontario, Canada, one hour’s drive east of Toronto. Our Senior School, Grades 9-12, includes approximately 450 young men and women, about 60% of whom are boarding students. Our Junior School includes approximately 100-day students from Grade 5 to Grade 8. Established in 1865, TCS is one of Canada's oldest and most respected educational institutions. Our mission: Developing habits of the heart and mind for a life of purpose and service. Habits like courage, creativity, compassion, integrity, and perseverance are ingrained in our liberal arts curriculum and throughout our comprehensive co-curricular programs in athletics, arts, and service-learning. In offering a robust boarding program that spans beyond the typical school day, both our boarding and day students find themselves fully engaged in a busy and dynamic learning environment at TCS. In this supportive and close-knit community, and with the wise counsel of our staff, students are encouraged to step out of their comfort zone and explore the many opportunities offered here. In discovering new interests and pursuing passions, every student crafts their own TCS Signature Journey, creating an educational experience that is unique and reveals the potential and power within themselves. For more than 150 years, Trinity College School (TCS) has been internationally recognized for excellence in educating young people. It is no surprise that our challenging and encouraging environment has helped TCS graduates gain entrance to top universities around the world and that our alumni are leaders in their communities. But this is just half the story. TCS has always been keenly involved in character development, as reflected in our mission, “developing habits of the heart and mind for a life of purpose and service.” Given the challenges facing our planet today, we know our students will be called upon to lead their communities, their colleagues, their cause, and, in some cases, their countries. If we are to best prepare our students to meet these challenges, we must inspire them to become leaders of character, purpose, and vision. At TCS we think that the quality of character determines the quality of a leader. As such, we challenge our students to establish worthy goals and to act to a good purpose. We cultivate integrity in our students. We encourage honest and constructive conduct. And, on the strength of our people, our program, and our place, we help to develop leaders who are broad-minded, intelligent, thoughtful, and confident. The Junior School at Trinity College School is a day school for students in Grades 5, 6, 7, and 8. It is located in historic Boulden House which sits on the north side of the School's beautiful 100-acre campus. The staff and faculty at the Junior School work diligently to ensure the best educational experience for each child, providing diverse opportunities for personal, social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth. In a small, supportive, and challenging environment, faculty motivate the students to explore their strengths and opportunities, in turn fostering character, confidence, and individual achievement. It is also in the Junior School that students develop the requisite skill set to meet the expectations of Trinity College School's Senior School. Junior School students are active participants in academics, arts, athletics, and co-curricular activities and come to Trinity College School from Port Hope, Peterborough, Whitby, and many other towns and cities within the Northumberland and Durham regions. TCS students embrace the opportunities provided inside and outside of the classroom faculty work closely with students to nurture a solid sense of citizenship, good study habits, critical thinking, and sound observation skills. Teachers are committed to the students and their parents, forming strong partnerships which serve as the basis for learning and growth. Communication with parents is of vital importance. The essential ingredients of a TCS education are academic vigor, co-curricular breadth, and attention to the well-being of the whole person. To learn more about the Junior School, please book a tour and read our parent testimonials. The Senior School encompasses four years of secondary or high school, beginning in Grade 9 and culminating in Grade 12. During that time, students are exposed to learning in the classroom, on the playing fields, in arts and community service activities, and the daily interactions with teachers and a diverse population of like-minded, hard-working students. Our liberal arts program is designed to give students a broad and rich exposure to many disciplines and is a reflection of our School's mission to develop habits of the heart and mind for lives of purpose and service. Once at TCS, students begin their Signature Journey in good company, working together with their peers through a strong core program and a formative set of non-negotiable expectations—attending chapel, participating in our house system, immersing themselves in sports, arts, and service as well as engaging with our challenging compulsory courses. By starting our students on the same path, we ensure that all develop vital academic skillsets and deep roots in a community bound by shared values and unifying goals. While we anchor the TCS experience in the stability of shared experiences, we also empower each of our students to pursue a unique path, propelled by personal interests, aptitudes, and passions. Our array of elective classes invites students to study the classics, delve more deeply into the sciences, explore the arts or investigate issues in government and politics. This academic experience is enriched by co-curricular offerings that range from cricket to the improv team to the field, farm, and forest club.

Being in the middle can be challenging - neither here nor there. In the Middle School at HTS, we honor this with an approach to learning that guides each student's jump from the junior grades and prepares them to transition to our Senior School. Creative and caring teachers provide a rich and challenging curriculum geared towards the developing minds of adolescents. While academic expectations are being met and surpassed, special attention is given to each student, helping them develop the tools they will need to succeed in their future years at HTS and beyond. HTS provides time outside of the academic timetable to allow students to fill their toolbox, follow their interests, or seek support during FLEX (Flexible Learning Experience). From study skills to the organization, debate to coding, investment club to wellness and leadership, FLEX is designed to complement the classroom's educational excellence. The Middle School at HTS also offers many opportunities to perform, create, play, and challenge. Thirteen teams compete wearing the Hawks uniform. Our concert band and other ensembles shine at every concert. Trips to leadership camps, Quebec City, Space Camp, and national tournaments complete a well-rounded experience. The Senior School is a place where students are exposed to a wide variety of learning, leadership, and co-curricular opportunities - all of which make the HTS experience exceptional, not only for the senior students but the entire community. The HTS Senior School has a long-standing reputation for academic excellence. Students learn how to build their analytical skills, master problem solving, and deeply engage with course material in the classroom. As an Apple Distinguished School, we use technology to enhance this learning and make it more relevant for the 21st-century learner. Our teachers are committed to helping our students realize their potential and exceed their expectations. Outside the classroom, our students are encouraged to follow their passion. Athletics is where students learn to work as a team, stay physically active, and build character. Our arts program encourages a love of the arts and growth through our many bands and ensembles, our annual school production, and our vibrant art program. Our clubs and societies offer students the opportunity to engage in other passions, from CAD Club to the Model United Nations.

Trinity Grammar School, Kew has an esteemed history of educating boys that extends over 115 years. Therefore, its traditions are vital, and its motto of Viriliter Agite – Act Manfully – remains the school's guiding principle. However, a modern view of manfulness requires much more than its traditionally ascribed characteristics of courage and stoicism. Accordingly, Trinity prides itself on preparing boys for a self-satisfying and happy life, a life of resilience, respectfulness, and fulfilling relationships of compassion to others and contribution to the broader society and communities they live in. In my regular contact with Trinity boys, both current and past, We are always inspired by their leadership, determination, and drive. We are sure you will be impressed by them too.

Before and After Care Programs complement the ELC Program to maintain a balanced day for the children and accommodate working parents' needs. The children become an integral part of the school. This is enhanced by their participation in specialist classes such as Music, Library and Physical Education, and a Buddy Program with the Year 3 boys. The curriculum for Years 7 and 8 at Trinity is designed as a two-year sequence. During these first and critical years of secondary education, students are introduced to the full range of learning opportunities on offer at the school while also developing the personal, social, and organizational skills which will hold them in good stead for the remainder of their education. Core subjects such as English, Mathematics, Science, and LOTE run almost every day, giving students maximum opportunity to benefit from regular face-to-face teaching in these critical areas. Humanities and Arts subjects also run on most days. However, students change between subjects regularly. Overall, the program sees students studying only eight subjects per term, giving them unrivaled opportunities to develop positive relationships with all of their teachers. One of Trinity's great strengths has always been the supportive learning relationships between students and teachers. Our dedicated staff pride themselves on knowing each boy as an individual and understanding his skills, passions, strengths, and weaknesses. Seeing students more often makes it possible for these strong relationships to form and grow. The Year 9 curriculum focuses on the increasing globalization and interconnectedness of the world into which students will move post-school. This takes place through the lens of a Chinese culture study, which sees all boys participate in a three-week immersion experience in China. The core curriculum is expanded by introducing a suite of semester-length subjects, the aim of which is to help each boy develop a clearer sense of his interests, passions, and enthusiasm. The subject choices made in Year 9 do not commit students to a particular program in the final three years of schooling, and as such, this year should be seen as a further opportunity for boys to explore disciplines and subject areas. The core English program in Year 9 follows the Cambridge IGCSE curriculum. Where appropriate, relevant language subjects will also be aligned with this course. The life of a Year 10 student at Trinity is busy, engaging, focused, and fun. During this year, boys are encouraged to choose the subjects that they will attempt in the first year of their VCE program. This is the time when they must start to think about possible university courses and career pathways. To assist them in this process, all students undertake a work experience placement. Also, a guided testing program is used to help them uncover their aptitudes, interests, passions, and areas for development, all of which help them make informed choices. The Year 10 program's academic rigor increases significantly throughout the year to prepare each student for the challenges and opportunities presented by their final two years of secondary school. In addition to the core academic program, students are given access to a significant number of elective options, each of which is designed to broaden their skills and challenge their perceptions of the world. Trinity students learn to question the assumptions that underpin global interactions and the extent to which they can be a positive influence locally, nationally, and globally. By the end of the Year 10 program, Trinity students are academically and socially prepared for the years ahead.

Since then, Trinity College has undergone significant growth and development but remains an institution that adheres to its founding principles.

For almost 40 years at Trinity Christian School, we have equips our students to live meaningful lives beyond school. However, the real indication of a school's quality is not in its past but in how well its students learn to have loving hearts, enquiring minds, and generous spirits. These are the core aspirations we have for our students and ones at the core of the Christian education we provide at Trinity Christian School. At Trinity Christian School, we provide a holistic education based on biblical principles where students are nurtured in the Christian faith. Christ is at the center of all that we do. Students are provided with opportunities to grow in faith and service within a safe and nurturing environment. We believe that education builds capacity and that it is our team of highly qualified Christian teachers in cooperation with our parents who bring this to life in each of our students. Our aim is for students to know what they believe and why their character is formed based on our Christian beliefs and values. Our objective is that our graduates reflect the hope and purposeful service characteristic of those who follow Jesus in their life after school. As we equip our students for their future, we help them discover the type of purpose that ignites their desire to make a positive difference in our world. The vision of Trinity Christian School is "To provide students with a Christ-centred education in a learning community of Love, Nurture and Service. We are committed to: Love and serve the Lord by obeying His commands. Acknowledge that each person is a unique creation of God. Cherish relationships that speak the truth in love. Apply the highest standards in everything we do. Be truthful, fair, and courteous in all our dealings. Our mission is to: Honor God and to express His Nature in the life of our Christian School Community. Provide a safe and nurturing learning environment that encourages students to know Christ, love Him, and serve others. Support parents in their role as prime educators by providing effective partnerships in all aspects of learning. Aspire to educational excellence, enabling each student to recognize his / her potential and develop spiritually, emotionally, academically, physically, socially, and culturally. Challenge all with the truth of the Gospel to live and think in ways that will enrich our society.

Trinity provides an abundance of opportunities that fosters boys' development into men and allows boys to turn potential into reality. Our mission at Trinity Grammar School is to help boys discover their innate talents and unlock their full potential within the context of a supportive Christian environment. We have guided boys to grow in mind, body, and spirit for over a century, and we know what boys need to flourish and succeed truly. Each year when I meet the new boys on their first day of school, I am filled with the hope that every student will be able to discover his unique God-given talents, enabling him to grow into the best man he can be. With an extensive range of world-class educational programs, including the International Baccalaureate, vocational competencies, and one of the broadest range of co-curricular activities, Trinity provides a wealth of opportunities for every boy to develop his skills, whatever they might be. Fuelled by a pastorally aware culture with exceptionally high individual student attention levels, we pride ourselves on knowing, understanding, and nurturing every student. I have the privilege and the pleasure of conducting one-on-one interviews with our senior graduating students. I witness a Trinity education's real success by speaking with the well-rounded young men our boys have become. If you want your son to receive an outstanding Christian holistic education where he will be nurtured to grow into a clear and passionate man about his unique talents, consider Trinity. We look forward to welcoming your family to the Trinity community, where your son will have his best opportunity to realize his unique potential, passions, and purpose in life. Trinity Grammar School understands the importance of making a good beginning. From the significant foundation years of schooling, boys are provided with opportunities to develop in mind, body, and spirit. The boys' needs are met by a differentiated, inquiry-based curriculum, delivered by motivated, creative, and caring classroom teachers using exceptional facilities and resources. At the core of this is the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP), which guides boys to become independent inquiry learners. The PYP, for students from Pre-Kindergarten to Year 6, focuses on developing the whole child in the classroom and the world outside. It offers a framework that meets each child's academic, social, physical, emotional, and cultural needs. Delivering the Board of Studies curriculum outcomes, the PYP Programme adopts a comprehensive approach to learning with a global perspective. Based on an inquiry learning model, the PYP gives your son ownership of his learning to develop his research and critical thinking skills. He will pursue his interests and make meaningful connections with what he is learning to his home, the community, and the world. This breadth of experience will help him to become a socially conscious, internationally-minded, and independent learner.

The curriculum of the school is broad and balanced with the school ethos at the center of how we teach. Great emphasis is placed on planning the curriculum so that there is continuity, progression, and challenge whilst ensuring creativity and inclusion of every pupil. In 2014 our national education system went through significant changes. At TSM we strive to ensure our children receive an excellent first-class education. As a result, we would like to inform you about how we, as a school, address these changes and how we are working to implement them whilst maintaining our high standards. At TSM we view assessment as a very important tool for benchmarking the starting point of a child's education and to track progress and attainment throughout their time at the school. English, mathematics, science, and RE remain very important and core subjects at our school. The National Curriculum sets out in detail what must be taught in each of these subjects for each year group.

Trinity Fields School and Resource Centre is a purpose-built school which opened in 1998 and offers our pupils many unique and innovative features to develop their skills. First and foremost pupils are at the heart of all that we do at Trinity Fields. We have a long-standing commitment to providing all pupils with the very best learning experiences as well as empowering them to make important decisions about future developments within the school. We continue to work within the guiding principles of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) we achieved Level 2 of UNICEF's Rights Respecting Schools Award (RRSA) at the beginning of 2017. Our RRSA assessment report can be found under the "Policies" section of the website. We are extremely proud that we are the first school in Caerphilly to obtain this award. Our assessors said: "Article 12 is at the heart of life at Trinity Fields. Pupils are enabled to fully participate in a meaningful and inclusive way. The assessors were able to see many examples of this during the assessment with the Headteacher stating "RRS and listening to our pupils is natural and an expectation at school. My job is to support our pupils and make a difference. This can only be achieved by listening to them". At Trinity Fields we aim to promote and develop our pupils' learning, self-esteem, behavior, and confidence by providing rich and individualized learning opportunities for them to develop their skills and understanding, and create an exciting school community that is child-centered, empowering, and inclusive. We have also embraced the THRIVE approach across the school- further details of this approach will be found under the "School Info" tab. We work with all of our partners to provide the very best learning environment, and we will ensure that all of our dedicated staff team are highly skilled and have access to specialist equipment and outstanding facilities to meet pupils’ needs.

At Trinity Primary Academy we are committed to helping every child succeed, whatever their background or ability. We want to create a safe, stimulating, and supportive atmosphere where children can love life, learning, and play. We aim to offer our pupils rich and exciting learning opportunities that will help them to achieve and develop, and inspire them to do their very best. We want our children to leave us as confident and respectful young people, equipped with the knowledge and skills they need to be successful in their lives ahead. Trinity is a thriving Primary Academy situated in Wood Green, North London, close to the tube station. The building is Grade II listed Victorian and much of its original features remain. We admit children from Nursery through to Year 6 and currently have 2 forms of entry throughout the school. Trinity Primary Academy is a key member of Academies Enterprise Trust (AET), the operational arm of the Greensward Charitable trust, which is a federation of academies created to provide thousands of students/pupils with the best possible education. At Trinity, we have uncompromising aspirations for our pupils and staff alike. We provide an exceptional, innovative education that inspires and enables our pupils to be the very best they can be. We develop confident, resilient, independent lifelong learners who are prepared for life in modern Britain". We are a hard-working community dedicated to ensuring that we provide each pupil with the best possible start in life. We are committed to developing a welcoming, safe, and stimulating learning environment that will enable our pupils to become responsible citizens and lifelong learners". Our values: Harmony - We work well together and embrace our diversity. Respect - We are polite and show tolerance for others. Achievement - We strive for excellence in everything we do. These characteristics are what we believe all children need to become the best they can be, achieving life-long success. As a whole academy community, we aim to demonstrate these values at all times. Pupils are expected to follow the school and class rules at all times. Through the curriculum and weekly assemblies, children are taught the value and reasons behind rules and laws, how they govern and protect us, the responsibilities that these involve, and the consequences when rules are broken. Scheduled visits from authorities such as the police and fire service help reinforce this message. Through the curriculum, we encourage pupils to express and listen to each other’s views for example, through PSHE discussions, debates in English, and topic lessons, and the use of talk partners. Our curriculum supports pupils to develop their self-esteem, self-belief, and self-confidence. We encourage pupils to express their individuality and creativity through challenging stereotypes. At Trinity, pupils are actively encouraged to make choices, knowing that they are in a safe and supportive environment. As a school, we educate and provide boundaries for pupils to make informed choices and teach children how to make the right choice, for example through PSHE discussions and weekly assemblies. Trinity has a strong anti-bullying culture and our pupils understand the importance of being a helpful bystander. Mutual respect is one of Trinity's core values. Children learn that their behaviors affect their rights and those of others. All members of the school community are encouraged to treat each other with respect. At Trinity Primary Academy we actively promote diversity, tolerance, and understanding, through our celebration of different faiths and cultures. Through the teaching of Religious Education and PSHE. We reinforce messages of tolerance and respect. Pupils teach each other about their cultures and faiths, for example, through presentations to other classes. Whole school assemblies include stories and celebrations from a variety of faiths and cultures. This half term our topic is ‘All About Me’, which links to the Personal Social & Emotional & Communication & Language development and the children have been drawing and talking about their families. The children used mirrors to look at their reflection, talked about what they saw, the color of their eyes, hair, skin, and used paint to make their portraits. They are amazing! We have been discussing our feelings and what makes us happy and sad. The children have told us that coming to nursery makes them happy and that not having a friend to play with makes them sad. The children have also been enjoying Trinity’s very own Baby Clinic. We have also been marking making in shaving foam, glitter, paint, and rice Krispies whilst having lots of fun. In Maths we have been singing number songs with actions and props, playing number recognition & matching games to develop our Mathematics skills. Outside in the playground, we played hopscotch using our gross motor and balancing skills. In reception the children have been exploring the natural world around them, focusing on autumn. The children brought in their labeled autumn bags which were completed over the half term. We used these bags to talk about and compare the range of objects which can commonly be found outside in the autumn season. The children also used their autumn objects to explore transient art.

Trinity Primary School is a vibrant, positive school. We pride ourselves on our excellent ethos which is essential in providing high-quality teaching and learning experiences to all our pupils. Trinity Primary School is at the heart of the local community and we all work together to ensure that everyone feels valued, respected, and happy. Trinity Primary School is situated on Newhaven Road. It is non–denominational, co-educational, and is part of a cluster of primary schools also including Wardie Primary School and Victoria Primary School. Our catchment secondary school is Trinity Academy, with whom we have close links. The current school building was opened in 1968. We currently have 18 classes. Trinity has a science classroom with cooking facilities and a multipurpose teaching area. Our recently expanded dining room hosts both the breakfast club and after-school club. Our main hall is used for PE by our classes with their teacher and also with our visiting specialists. The main hall also has fantastic theatrical lighting and audio system which are used to enhance learning and teaching. School shows and whole school events are an integral part of Trinity Primary. We are lucky to have fairly extensive school grounds with both grass and tarmac areas, a quiet friendship garden, a storytelling space, a fenced sports area, a covered shelter area, and an internal school courtyard garden. There are also P7 mosaic stepping stones, a storytelling throne, a wooden bridge, a wooden fort to play in, designed and built by our talented janitor, Mr. Campbell. We have an amazing Secret Garden which is used as an outdoor classroom and which has 33 wooden seats (thanks again, Mr. Campbell for making them). We have exciting new developments happening this year with our school grounds. Our incredible PSA has fundraised £20,000 and this has now been doubled with another £20,000 from Matched Funding. You will be seeing developments to the front and back of our grounds. More recently, steps have been taken to start the process of re-developing the courtyard to create a multifunctional area, primarily for Early Years pupils. At Trinity Primary School we also understand that pupils are reassured if they have a good network of friends and people to support them and know some of what to expect so that they can adapt to the challenges of a new environment. Trinity Primary does not have its nursery. There are over 25 feeder nurseries across the city that our pupils come from. Trinity’s intake into P1 is usually around 80 pupils. The school offers a smooth, supportive, and structured transition from nursery to P1. In the term before starting school, your child will be invited into school for a tour by older pupils. They will also be visited in their nursery by a member of Trinity Primary School’s senior leadership team. The senior leadership team member will enjoy taking time to speak to your child and meeting the staff who have been involved in their nursery education. At Trinity Primary School we recognize that pupils need to feel ‘at at home’ and secure when starting with us in August. Following the parent's and carers’ evening meeting, the soon-to-be P1s are invited to meet their teacher and classmates. This is an exciting time for children and staff alike and it helps children to settle in when they first start at Trinity Primary School. We aim to ensure that our pupils become familiar with our local secondary school throughout their time at Trinity Primary School, through numerous opportunities.

Trinity is a Church of England Academy, founded to promote the education of students in a community that is positively Christian but welcomes the children of parents of other faiths. When Trinity was opened in 1984, the school quickly established itself as a popular school serving the whole City of Manchester and districts beyond. Its teachers, support staff, and students worked to create a school with a distinctive atmosphere, both demanding and caring, which reflected the hopes that parents have for their children. This outlook contributed towards the genuine sense of partnership between home and school. In turn, this has helped to provide feelings of security and structure, happiness, and well-being, which are the springboards for good learning. Such success contributed to our recognition, initially in April 1997, as a Technology College, and it was reflected in the report of that year by the Government’s Inspection Team (OFSTED), which listed Trinity as a good school with outstanding features our Year 2000, 2006 and 2010 inspections confirmed this. In 2014, Trinity was judged by Ofsted to be outstanding in all categories and outstanding for overall effectiveness. In 2016 the National Society Inspection judged us to be outstanding we were awarded Full International School status and designated as a Teaching School. Located equidistant between Manchester University and Manchester Metropolitan University, we are easily accessible from all parts of the City and are close to the many amenities of the City center. We make good use of our proximity to the universities, theatres, galleries, museums, the Royal Northern College of Music, the Aquatics Centre, and Sports City. These facilities complement the school’s sports center, sports hall, fitness suite, gymnasium, dance studio, floodlit artificial pitch, and floodlit multi-sport courts. Our Sports Centre assists our links with the community. As we have grown, so we have become a center for community sport. Our buildings are well resourced, enabling us to combine the best of tradition with innovative practice and to prepare our students to take their places as well-rounded individuals in a rapidly changing technological society. We aim to develop a breadth of experience so that, for example, our strong science, technology, and mathematics are well balanced by languages, aesthetics, creative subjects, and the humanities. Special attention is paid to developing students’ abilities to study independently and co-operatively. Spiritual understanding and growth play an important part in the life of the school and this is assisted by the variety of backgrounds represented in our annual intake. Valuing people has a special meaning in the school. Equally, we value the links we enjoy with the community, near and far. Students joining Trinity from primary school are selected from various religious traditions in given proportions to maintain the ethos of the school. At the same time, we encourage and promote a tolerant understanding of one another’s religious beliefs and cultures. The Governors’ statement of aims and objectives may be summarised as educating the whole child. If that is to happen for all the students, there must be a total commitment to the belief that people are intrinsical of equal value a reflection of the Christian belief that every person has a God-given individuality and is equal in the sight of God. Trinity Church of England High School is an Outstanding school with a rich history and exciting future. Founded on the principles of "Faith in the city, Value in people, and Excellence in Education", we offer high standards of care, support, achievement, and attainment. Our Admissions Policy ensures that we offer places to children of all faiths, not just Christian. In September 2011, we moved into modern, vibrant premises but on the same site in central Manchester. In September 2016, we opened a brand new Sixth Form offering an exciting curriculum enabling students to achieve the grades and securing places at the best universities in the U.K and beyond. This new addition enables us to fully fulfill our school aim "To provide a Christian environment in which young people are safe, secure, cared for and happy, and can develop into articulate, confident and well-qualified citizens of the world." Admissions to the school are the responsibility of the Governors. The Admissions Panel, comprising three of their number and the Head, acts on their behalf. 240 students are admitted each year. The deadline for applications is 31st October 2017. The agreement between the Governors and the Diocese of Manchester concerning admissions lays down the procedures to be followed. The Standard Admissions number is 240. The governors’ priority will be given to children who are or have been in public care and children who have an Education and Health Care Plan in which Trinity is named. In the event of oversubscription, the remaining places will be allocated by the use of the following criteria, applied in order. The curriculum has been designed to provide a well-balanced education and to develop to the full potential of each student, giving as wide an opportunity of choice as possible for continuing education and future employment. It is designed to draw on the presence of those of other ethnic origins and the knowledge of their cultures. The National Curriculum is regarded by the school as a minimum entitlement for all students. The school annually publishes details for each of Years 7, 8, and 9, describing the curriculum for that year. For Years 10 and 11, the relevant examination syllabi are available. examination, but IT is a feature of the work of many courses. Health education is a feature of the education of all students but several courses, including Science, Food Technology, and Religious Education, make a significant contribution to its study. Students in Years 7, 8, and 9 sit internal school examinations. In Years 10 and 11 they study courses leading to the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) and vocational qualifications. All of Years 10 and 11 will study the following curriculum: English (separate Language and Literature) Mathematics Science (incorporating Physics, Chemistry, and Biology), and Religious Education. They may also choose languages (from French or Spanish) Humanities subjects (History or Geography) aesthetic subjects (Art, Music, Drama, and PE), and a range of DT and IT-related subjects. In addition, all students have Physical Education, Citizenship, Work Related Learning, and Careers.

We are very lucky to have a Nursery class at Trinity as it means children have access to all the school facilities. Children join us at 2 or 3 years old and currently attend morning or afternoon sessions or a combination of both during term time only. We have a dedicated team of practitioners who are committed to providing the best possible start to your child’s learning journey. Each day is planned using the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum and children learn through play with a range of inspiring and motivating activities. Our Setting has 38 places which make up two classes and an outdoor area where children have access to sand, water, and climbing equipment. We work in partnership with parents and carers to provide the best possible outcomes for all children. Trinity Church of England Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We have several policies and procedures in place that contribute to our safeguarding commitment, including our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy which can be viewed in the Policies section of our website. Sometimes we may need to share information and work in partnership with other agencies when there are concerns about a child's welfare. We will ensure that our concerns about our pupils are discussed with their family first unless we have reason to believe that such a move would be contrary to the child's welfare. Prevent is one of the four elements of ‘CONTEST’ the government's counter-terrorism strategy. It aims to ‘prevent’ people from becoming involved with extremist views. The Prevent Strategy: Responds to the ideological challenge we face from terrorism and aspects of extremism, and the threat we face from those who promote these views Provides practical help to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism and ensure they are given appropriate advice and support Works with a wide range of sectors where there are risks of radicalization that we need to deal with. The school takes the Prevent duty very seriously and works to support all our families. Further information can be found across a range of our policies and in particular in the Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy. As a Church of England Primary School, we have a clear emphasis on creating a distinctive and inclusive ethos. We focus on six Christian values throughout the year that underpins our work with children as well as our expectations of children themselves. Our values are ‘Love’ ‘Respect’ ‘Courage’ ‘Trust’ ‘Justice’ and ‘Hope’. Pupils were told the story of Eddie Stobart who set up the renowned haulage company. His lorries can be seen on motorways up and down the land. His message to employees is “Only the best will do!” He inspired the pupils and we take this motto forward with us. Inspired by several great British leaders, we place this popular call to action at the heart of our work. Whether pupil, parent, or member of a staff member, we demand that everyone shows resilience in their learning or professional development. We are committed to giving every child the opportunity to perform to develop their self-confidence, self-esteem, self-discipline, and to work as a team. Every year each area of the school does a performance – Reception and Key Stage 1 pupils explore the nativity at Christmas whilst Key Stage 2 pupils perform carols at the nearby Holy Trinity Church. Towards the end of the year, Key Stage 2 pupils put on an end-of-year production. In recent years they have performed Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Macbeth, and A Midsummers Night's Dream.

We aim to provide the very best opportunity for our children. This is a learning community for its pupils and adults and is based upon the Christian values of love, tolerance, and forgiveness. The school ensures children learn in a safe, caring, and enriching environment. Children are taught how to keep themselves safe, to discover positive and healthy relationships and how to avoid situations where they might be at risk including by being exploited. At The Trinity Catholic Primary School, through the love of the Father and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we follow Jesus by showing love, respect, and forgiveness to everyone and everything, in all that we say and do. The Trinity Catholic Primary School believes that all human beings are uniquely created by God. All pupils and adults are respected and accepted for who they are. We create an atmosphere permeated by the gospel values of love, peace, justice, tolerance, and forgiveness. Our faith perspective is embedded in every aspect of school life. We believe that the Christian vision of life can enable human beings to be more fully human. Our vision for The Trinity is that it is a place where children are at the center of a school that provides a safe and secure environment for all, and where all are valued for their uniqueness. A community where all are treated equally, accepted for who they are, and where respect is evident. It is a place of welcome and love where everyone's potential can be realized. We set high expectations for academic, social, spiritual, moral, and physical development. The children are confident and willing to take risks. The school recognizes that learning is a continuous journey and that we learn together in a vibrant and exciting environment. We promote excellence and creativity by providing enriching experiences. The school delivers all statutory requirements and promotes links with the community and the wider world. Learning and teaching are at the heart of our school, which is inclusive and empowering. We nurture trust and collaboration. The British values are democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect, tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs. This is the goal of Catholic education to draw out the potential in each person to the full. We work in a community that recognizes the centrality of Christ as our guide and inspiration and sees all who attend here as of utmost worth. Our values underpin the curriculum and can be seen as promoting equality, freedom, respect, tolerance, forgiveness, and democracy. Our curriculum is designed to offer our children a broad and balanced curriculum, that promotes values necessary to live in our society today. We deliver the National Curriculum in a way that is appropriate to our city, our area, and our school a curriculum that offers rich opportunity and experience to set firm foundations to promote life-long learning. Delivering a broad and balanced curriculum that engages, challenges, and supports the needs of all our pupils is central to our foundation subject curriculum at The Trinity. We aspire to inspire our children to reach their potential. At the Trinity Catholic Primary School, we believe that our children deserve the best-both academically and personally. Subjects covered in Key-Stage 1 (5-7) and Keystage 2 (7-11) are: RE, English, Maths, Science, Art and Design, Computing, Design and Technology, Geography, History, Music and P.E. Keystage 2 children also learn Spanish. As with English, Maths, and Science, we teach skills and knowledge leading to independent application. Year-on-year, these are built upon ensuring progression through the school. Wherever possible, opportunities to apply English and Maths skills are planned into foundation subjects. Half-termly curriculum maps are sent to parents to ensure that skills taught in school can be reinforced at home. R.E. is taught following the Archdiocese agreed on the syllabus "Come and See". This reinforces the values of our school and promotes the Catholicity of our mission statement. Throughout Key Stage 2, English and Maths are taught in groups, arranged by ability, within year groups.

Holy Trinity provides a safe and happy learning environment where children and adults are valued, nurtured, and empowered. We believe that everyone in the school community is responsible for instilling in our children the values that will help them to become confident and responsible members of society. Our approach is led by the Christian principle “that you do to others as you would have them do unto you” and we aim to establish a clear understanding of rights and responsibilities for all. We believe a good education is a foundation on which our children’s futures are built and equips them for their life ahead. We aim to develop the whole child through a diverse and culturally rich curriculum. We are committed to providing educational excellence and helping children to develop enquiring minds, the motivation to learn, and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively. Many of our children join Holy Trinity in the Nursery, aged three. A place in the Nursery does not guarantee a place in the main school. All children meeting the school admission criteria will move on to Reception where they will be joined by children new to the school. Admission for new pupils through years 1 – 6 are managed by the Hackney Learning Trust and applications can be obtained from our website. We have 6 classes ranging from Year 1 to Year 6 with a maximum of 30 children per class. We are building year on year into a two-form entry primary school with 2 Reception classes in September 2017. We also have a Nursery Class which offers part-time and full-time places. All classes are mixed ability and have one class teacher supported by at least one teaching assistant during most lessons. Also, we have state-of-the-art learning technologies to which all classes have access during the school week. The school runs a private Preschool for children aged from 3 months to 3 years. Early years education provides the building blocks for a child’s success at primary school. Children in the Nursery and Reception classes have a wide range of opportunities to help them develop socially, learn new skills and practice them in a safe, vibrant, and happy environment. Children learn through playing, exploring, experimenting, and talking. The staff in Nursery and Reception classes work closely together to plan a wide range of learning opportunities for indoor and outdoor learning all year round. Children are also allocated a key worker with special responsibility for monitoring learning and wellbeing throughout the day. Children move into Key Stage 1 when they are five, at the end of their Reception year. We are careful to ensure a smooth transition into Year 1 by building on their experiences and achievements in the Foundation Stage. Children in Key Stage 1 have daily literacy and numeracy lessons and continue to learn through a topic-based approach. Children move into Key Stage 2 when they are seven, at the end of Year 2. Our children are taught life skills that help them to understand wider issues such as tolerance and citizenship. They are encouraged to take on greater responsibility for their learning and development. Children are increasingly made aware of learning goals and areas for development. Children in Key Stage 2 continue to have daily literacy and numeracy lessons. We also work in partnership with our local secondary schools. Our older pupils often visit local schools and teachers visit our school for specialist lessons. As part of our curriculum, we aim to develop children’s awareness of global issues. From time to time, children make links with schools and communities in different parts of the world. This included a trip to Spain for a group of Year 5 children in 2016. Across the school children are taught literacy using Success for All (SFA) which improves our pupils’ skills, fluency, and confidence in all aspects of literacy raises self-esteem, develops social skills, and establishes a culture of cooperative learning. The Pupil Premium is allocated to children from low-income families who are currently known to be eligible for Free School Meals (FSM) and children who have been looked after continuously for more than six months. For 2017 – 2018, Holy Trinity has been awarded £121,440 and to best support the raising of attainment for the most vulnerable pupils in our school. The school carefully monitors the progress of each pupil. Children’s work is assessed formally and informally at appropriate stages. Clear targets are set for improvement and these are shared with the children. Teachers and support staff are continuously monitoring and evaluating children’s progress through marking and observations. Children are encouraged to play an active part in assessing their progress and set targets. We are a group of schools working together because we believe our schools can gain many benefits from working collaboratively. We have committed to a shared responsibility to the wider school community, the provision of good quality education, and the improvement of life chances for pupils in the community beyond that of our schools. Teachers, support staff, school leaders, and governors have added expertise in working alongside colleagues to improve provision and outcomes for our pupils.
