Senior Leaders are proud of the learning environment with the children’s well-being and safety at the heart of all learning. A highly inclusive, rich learning environment.
TGA’s school sits on 4 acres of land in the Sherwood Park area of Tunbridge Wells. The school has already heavily invested in its Forest School endeavour through the following infrastructure:
- Fire pit

TGA aims to, overtime, further improve its facilities in order to become a local Forest School leader and offer not only year-round weekly sessions but also holiday camps and term time sessions to other local primary schools.
