About

Collingwood College is one of Surreys best performing secondary schools, consistently delivering excellent outcomes for students aged 11 to 18. We are committed to developing responsible, independent and happy young people who have a strong moral code and contribute to society both economically and socially.

Students have the self-belief to take a no-limits approach to their learning and be the best that they can be. In all aspects of College life they can be proud of who they are, develop a growth mindset and become well-equipped to meet the challenges of the future. We have high standards for ourselves, are open, honest and do what is right, not just what is easy.

We are forward-thinking and committed to continuous improvement, innovation and acting on curiosity. We work hard to overcome challenges, achieve, and exceed expectations. We celebrate successes and support everyone to reach their goals. Academic results are just part of the story – we strive for excellence in everything we do.

We believe that diversity of backgrounds, cultures and ideas strengthens our community – one in which everyone is treated with kindness, empathy and fairness. A wide range of courses and subjects delivered by outstanding teachers

iAcademy trust: local governing body and trust board.

23 governors are linked to a profile (all confirmed).

Governors marked “Confirmed same person” have exactly the same forename and surname as the only officer of that name at the school’s own academy trust company on the Companies House register, so we treat them as the same person. The governance record itself comes from DfE.
