Current Status

Torquay Boys鈥 Grammar School聽 鈥 a free, independent state school. Strategically this status accords the Governors unique responsibilities:

  • As employers, responsible for all contractual matters for staff;
  • As trustees/owners, taking responsibility for the freehold of all land and buildings;
  • As the admissions authority, having responsibility for the school admissions policy and procedure.

The quasi-autonomous nature of Academy status enables the Governors and staff to develop the school from the perspective of curriculum, personnel, land and buildings, and finance.
