Give now
Your generous donations to School Fund provide students with a wide variety of extra opportunities that are not possible to deliver via the government funding the school receives alone and facilities that support 21st century learners. To date this has included the library and a school librarian; co-curricular activities in music, sport, STEM, competitions, whole school celebrations (inc Culture Day, Sports Day, end of school year celebration), debating, mini bus for transport to sporting events/community outreach , maintaining the all-weather pitch, careers programme.
Share your expertise to make classroom learning relevant to the world of work.
We regularly welcome parents and other family members, alumni and local businesses to school to speak, contribute to workshops and societies (eg Law Soc, BioSoc, Medsoc, Engineering, Debating, Oxbridge, Study Abroad, Apprenticeships) and partake in careers events.
Give your time to support our PTA
Our PTA is at the heart of our school community, building community by running a wide variety of events from the Winter Fair to quiz nights, school celebrations (such as pre-prom Fizz and Strawberries) to the Year 7 disco and refreshments at a variety of school events.
Generous donations have made the following projects possible: The Hands Building (2008), The IBarn (2015), Music upgrade (2016), Outdoor Sport (2018). Boilers, solar panels, window replacements, security gates, access stairs to Mitchener Hall, STEM Environmental and Meadow (2021), Wellbeing Hub (2021), Fitness Suite (2021).
The Vision for Future School group is working towards realising a short and a longer term development plan, to meet and reflect the changing needs of education and environment targets. A high priority is for the whole school site to be accessible to all users. The objective for 2024-2025 is to realise works in the Technology Block: A lift, and upgrades to teaching classrooms in DT and in Science.
Bursary Fund
Bursary fundraising provides both discretionary financial assistance, and extends the financial support for students eligible under the government led pupil premium and 16 - 19 schemes. We can support students who would otherwise be excluded from activities due to their personal financial circumstances.
Sponsorship
Tonbridge Grammar School seeks mutually beneficial, working relationships with businesses and service providers whose vision and aims are in line with those of the School. These business partnerships are highly valued. Event Sponsorship packages start at £250 (other programmes are available).
Leave a Legacy
The School is incredibly grateful for the bequests received over the years, which have enhanced school life. Our legacy programme is named after our benefactor legator Miss Joy Debney, teacher of History and school archivist, who was associated with Tonbridge Grammar School for many years.
