Our new car park, opened in October 2018, has massively improved access to the school, without affecting the beautiful surroundings that our location provides. Located on the slopes of the East Looe Valley, Trewidland Primary School makes the most of its beautiful countryside surroundings by taking every opportunity to explore nature as part of the Wild Tribe curriculum.
Wild Tribe is used across many aspects of the school and both pupils and staff love the ability to use our fantastic environment and breathtaking scenery as a learning tool. Trewidland Primary School is a member of the South East Cornwall Multi Academy Trust (SMART), alongside two other primaries and three secondary schools.
Being part of SMART has helped Trewidland work with schools across the region improving pupils learning and helping deliver invaluable improvements at school - such as our new superfast broadband.
