Tiffin Boys' School

 

Tiffin Boys' School

Tiffin Boys' School is a Selective Grammar School in Kingston-Upon-Thames, southwest London, England. The original foundation dates from the endowment of John and Thomas Tiffin, merchants of Kingston in 1638. The school colours also date from that time and the three-salmon crest of the school is a reminder of the long association with the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames.

The first Tiffin Boys' school opened on the Fairfield in January 1880 and the School moved to its present site, near the centre of Kington in 1929. In 1944 it became a Grammar school and in 1993 changed from voluntary controlled to Grant-maintained. There are now 140 boys in each year and 360 in the sixth form.

In 2005 it will be celebrating its 125th anniversary.
