From a fine mind to a good heart
At Tonbridge, we develop fine minds and good hearts by making connections - between ideas, interests, and people.
This is summed up in the words of alumnus,
EM Forster, Only Connect.
James Priory
HeadmasterHere, we build connections between people, ideas, talents and enthusiasms. In this way, we encourage the boys to make their own connections as they continue their journey through Tonbridge and beyond...

With access to state-of-the-art facilities, boys at Tonbridge are well-equipped for exceptional learning experiences, be they in or out of the classroom.
From an award-winning science centre, to a professional theatre to and a recognised Olympic sports training centre, whatever your passions we’ve got the facilities to support your growth inside and outside the classroom.
We actively encourage boys to explore their interests and embrace opportunities beyond the classroom.
A wide variety of clubs and societies cater to diverse interests, including literary, cultural, political, scientific, artistic, and sporting pursuits. The Societies Fair at the start of each year allows boys, particularly new pupils, to discover these opportunities and join those that spark their passion.
